CREATE A GANTT CHART. YOU HAVE TO CREATE IT, NOT JUST WRITE OUT ALONE

Create a Gantt chart (see Figures 3.3 and 3.4 in your textbook) for the entire process of the Proof of Concept. There is a two-month deadline from today to complete the POC. Your Gantt chart must include the following:

• Today, as the initial meeting.
  • It should appear as the first line.
• Select teams to participate in the project (1 week).
• Information gathering (add the information gathering methods you will use and how long each will take).
• System configurations based on information gathering methods (2 weeks).
• Create an activity chart based on information gathering (information to create chart supplied; 2 days).
• Create a use case diagram based on information gathering (information to create chart supplied; 1 day).
• Show the finished configurations to the team and get feedback (1 day).
• Make changes based on feedback (3 days).
• Install the system in the test store (2 days).
• Train staff (1 day).
• Run a live test of POC (2 weeks).
• Five more tasks from the concepts learned in this course.
  • The additional tasks can be subtasks for information gathering methods and other subtasks or major tasks not listed above.

Remember that events in a Gantt chart can happen simultaneously with other events. Some items also cannot start until others are completed. Everything has an estimated time frame, and it is displayed in the chart.
