1. Pick one of the following 3 scenarios, and create a WBS for it: A. Deploying 75 new Windows 10 systems (desktop and laptops) over a 9 month period; B. Creating a new website advertising your new lawn care business; C. Installing a new server running Windows Server 2016 this will function as an upgrade to your existing printserver that hosts 15 network printers.

2. Define the 6 steps for a project risk plan.

3. Explain in detail why the initial requirements gathering phase is so critical.

4. You are a project manager, overseeing a 3 month project with a budget of $20,000 USD (US Dollars). Your team consists of one system administrator and one software developer. Your client, MobiClothes, is a young small-business clothing store that has been operational for 1.5 years. They have never had a website (currently selling items in-store only). The client has a desire to start selling clothes online through a website. The scope of the project is as follows:

Install a new system (HP ProLiant server or HP z840 workstation) running Windows Server 2016 with Microsoft SQL 2016.

Create a full-stack website that will allow MobiClotes to sell clothes online.

Install 3 new security cameras that will be placed throughout the store. These cameras will store their archived footage on the server mentioned above.

Install an IPS and IDS (intrusion prevention system and instruction detection system) that will monitor for attacks against the above mentioned infrastructure.

This is your first project for this company, and they told you that there are more opportunities available from other small businesses nearby if all goes well. 1.5 months into the project, your software developer is becoming unhappy with the company, and the quality of their work has started to decline. Also, your system administrator informs you that the system they were planning to install has a dead motherboard (just discovered this late last night). As the project manager, how do you handle this?

5. Choose one of your current or recent projects, and practice the SixStep process. Make a list of potential risks to the project and prioritize each, utilizing H-M-L or a simple metric-based scale. Pick any three risks and establish: ! Prevent measures

! Contingencies

! Trigger points Two or three bullet points for each should suffice.
