This task will be followed up asynchronously over a few days and should not take more than two hours in total.
Project Introduction
You have been assigned as project manager for a project for the client Zbal Corp (your client stakeholder is Vincent). The outcome of this project will be a web app which allows a user to sign up, and log-in to a system that gives them a data dashboard for climate figures. The system as a whole is expected in 5 weeks.
Project Details
The work has been divided into two parts:
• the backend and frontend for login and signup as well as the frontend for climate data display - This will be handled by Wiredcraft completely
• the backend for climate data information which will be provided by a separate company Qingfeng Labs, you will need to interface with Song, their project manager, to coordinate as they are building this system from scratch for Zbal Corp.
The specific requirements for the registration have been decided as Username, Password and Email address fields. The login will be based on username. And after sign up the real-time climate data system expects to receive the Username and Email so they can customise the information in the backend for WCL to access and display in the front-end the correct data for this user.
In your team you have:
• Two designers who can make mockups and flow diagrams of the login and once confirmed, implement the frontend parts and dashboard.
• A developer who can implement the backend and help out integrating the login/data dashboard figure frontend
• A dev-ops engineer who can set up the servers and take care of deployment.
Your Task
The first step of this task is for you to provide the following:
• Clarify the requirements and provide your understanding of the final scope for Wiredcraft's work.
• An initial project plan including:
A work breakdown for Wiredcraft's integration with Qingfeng Labs up to the final delivery
a rough timeline of what you think needs to happen in this project and deliverables. You can use the methodology of your choice for this plan.
Outline the project phases you would have and what should be delivered at each phase.
The plan can be a few paragraphs of text and the timeline can also be made using Github markdown by outlining what needs to be done during each week.
A rough outline of the process you would use for the day-to-day organisation of the development team and a short overview of how you would manage the communication flows internally and externally.
You can also kick off with any questions to multiple people in one GitHub comment, I will answer likewise and bring up more cases to test your communication skills as we go along:
(Assume you have already been introduced to the client (@Vincent1211) and real-time climate data service vendor (@Song222) ) and you can @myteam333 for questions to your development team)
e.g.
@flfrank222 - Hi there, can I confirm with you the requirements for ...
@Vincent1211 - I heard from Song222 that they need to have xxx, does that mean we need to change ....
@myteam333 - I'm not clear on how xxx could work, can you tell me more about it?
@mpathiuk - For the test, I don't understand what you mean by xxx ...
