Based on the responses of these two questionnaires, Trello is a better choice of a project management software package because of its economic-friendly nature as well as a lower risk of fault.

ACTIVITY 2

This paper seeks to analyze the criteria used in identifying the termination start of projects. The outcome is that in both projects, there were two instances where the termination phases were done poorly as well as the best measures aimed at improving the situation to avoid total failure of these projects. These two projects that I have been involved in recently include the large-scale single location grounded -mounted solar projects and the small-scale multiple locations rooftop-mounted solar project that was done quickly in succession as demanded.

In both projects, it is important to understand the criteria of the closure of the project management life cycle since this helps to identify whether the project was a success or a failure. The final phase of the project is the project closure phase and the focus of this phase would be to release and delivery since all project activities are wrapped up.

The criteria used for small-scale multiple location rooftop-mounted solar project entailed expert judgement that comprised expertise drawn from groups or individuals with specialized training or knowledge. The project manager also confirmed whether the small-scale solar project met audit and management control regarding user requirement, durability and standard. Regulation and legislation requirements were also checked to ensure the project met such requirements. The team and project performance were also analyzed which paved the way for documentation of project closure. Activities that were done poorly entailed activities to do with assembling of the team since the team for installing the team had the same area of specialization leading to the second problem of work breakdown structure where the planning phase lacked the best estimation for necessary activities and tasks. Additionally, the team faced problems concerning the installation of solar panels hence affecting the quality of time and the cost of the project.

The criteria used to identify the start of the termination of the large-scale solar project was the data analysis criteria. The technique applied in data analysis was trend analysis, regression analysis and document analysis. Document analysis will be carried out to extract information concerning project management and control will entail checking that everything went according to the project management plan regarding timelines and financial parameters. Regression analysis was done and it involved the analysis of the interrelationship between project variables such as resource use as well as meeting of deadlines. The problems that were faced in the case of a large-scale solar project was a lack of project performance that led to the wastage of money and resources. The project also failed in meeting performance baselines since there was a wastage of money. There was also a communication breakdown because the plan for project execution did not meet the resources that were set aside.
