This week you create the initial project plan (draft 1) based on the previous selected project idea. For this assignment, identify the criteria intended to enable selection of approach and needed to break up the work into appropriate silos of activity. Write 2-4 pages (not including title or reference pages) in APA format.

Note: The project plan is based on 3 stages of development: Draft 1, Draft 2 and Final. The final stage of the project plan development should present the revised, refined and well-addressed information.

Instructions:

1. Introduce the project
2. Criteria of selection - that is, what will you use to perform the project in terms of resources? Outsource to contractors or contracting firms? Perform all work in-house? A hybrid of both options?
3. Initial work schedule - create an initial work schedule based on the criteria. As part of this schedule, a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) chart will be developed and included in the paper as a diagram.
4. Communication Schedule - it should be based on shareholders.

By understanding the project at this level of detail better ensures that the project will actually correct the problem and will be successfully executed.

Your paper must follow APA format (http://ottawa.libguides.com/apa). Grammar, spelling, and quality will influence your grade.
