The company has a diverse range of products and services, including but not limited to VR [Virtual Reality) and AR {Augmented Reality) software, hardware, and online services that help them bring interactive historical experiences to its customers. In recent years, History Unlimited has experienced significant regression and would want to expand into new markets. To support this growth and remain competitive in the fast-paced technology industry, History Unlimited recognises the importance of a strong ICT strategy. After you proposed the strategic requirements for History Unlimited to advance its goals to grow and enter new markets, the board of directors have decided to focus on only the online services market. They aim to develop a Citizen Science platform to allow them to connect with users of their services across the world and to gather data about historic sites and artefacts directly from the public. Consequently, the management have found a niche market, and they understand that this system will streamline the organisation's business processes, enable it to achieve its goals and improve efficiency in the following strategic areas: Technical requirements: # Infrastructure Upgrade # Cloud Computing Cybersecurity + Software Build Non-technical requirements: Training Change Management Alignment with Business Strategy Stakeholder Engagement History Unlimited also indicated there are time constraints and have asked your project team to produce an implementation plan based on the organisation's strategic ICT requirements {in this case, the technical and the non-technical) in three weeks, due on the 19th April 2024. 3.0 Task Description Project teams are to produce an implementation plan based on a Citizen Science platform build for History Unlimited's strategic ICT requirements {technical and non-technical). Your group is required to research and produce an implementation plan in a form of a professional report. The plan should include the following: = An overview of Citizen Science platforms and how one could meet the goal of the arganisation (collect historical data from the public). + |dentify the stakeholders for each of the technical and the non-technical requirements. + Analyse, determine the need and the goal of each stakeholder in the two requirement categories (technical and non-technical) = Prioritise the stakeholders based on their importance and how they impact History Unlimited. # Define the required components of a Citizen Science platform that meets the organisation's specific requirements. + Determine the Project Team and meticulously outline the roles and responsibilities of the project team members, including their contact information and reporting structure. = Develop a plan: Once the ICT requirements are defined, the team should develop a plan to meet these requirements. This includes identifying the resources needed, creating a timeline, and determining the budget required. + |dentify the potential problems that would likely impede your proposed implementation plan. # The implementation plan needs to outline the steps taken to ensure how the new system aligns with guality, information, and governance requirements.
