If there are no changes:
Write a paragraph of 60–90 words explaining why there are no cost changes, what costs might be unexpected later, and/or what costs might be helpful in the future if the project scope is increased or features added.
Schedule Update
Project Management Track:
First, make a copy of your Gantt file (WBS) you submitted for Unit 2.
Rename the copy for Unit 3 (see below).
Make changes to the Unit 3 version to show completion of tasks/progress. Consider changing the color of the text or cells or applying bold to clearly identify items that have been completed.
Progress is expected and required.
Write 60-90 words in the Word template as an overview of the changes. Also, mention that full details are in the separate WBS.
IT Specialist Track:
Copy and paste your Word table schedule from your Unit 2 submission in this unit’s template.
Make changes if necessary.
Identify project progress in the table by using the Word highlighting tool in the home ribbon, changing the font color, or making use of bold or italic text. Do not use Track Changes.
Progress is expected and required.
Legal, Ethical, Social, and Global Implications
Identify a minimum of four issues/problems regarding your project that must be considered. Note that this is only identifying what problems could occur; you will devise a mitigation plan in Unit 4. If you need ideas to get started, check the Reading part of this unit.
Mention at least four separate ideas:
At least one must deal with potential legal and/or ethical problems.
At least one must address global concerns.
Identify each potential problem clearly as legal, ethical, social, and/or global.
Write 100–130 words for this section.

Sample Solution

Project Update

Scope

The scope of the project has not changed since the last update. The project is still on track to deliver the following features:

  • A user-friendly interface
  • The ability to create and manage tasks
  • The ability to track progress and set deadlines
  • The ability to collaborate with others on projects

Costs

The costs of the project have not changed since the last update. The total cost of the project is estimated to be $10,000.

Schedule

The project is on track to be completed on time. The project is scheduled to be completed in six months.

Legal, Ethical, Social, and Global Implications

The following are four potential issues/problems that must be considered for this project:

  • Legal: The project must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. For example, the project must not collect or store personal data without the user’s consent.
  • Ethical: The project must be conducted in an ethical manner. For example, the project must not discriminate against any person or group of people.
  • Social: The project must consider the social impact of its development and use. For example, the project must not be used to spread misinformation or propaganda.
  • Global: The project must be mindful of its global impact. For example, the project must not contribute to environmental degradation.

These are just a few of the potential issues/problems that must be considered for this project. The project team will need to carefully evaluate these issues/problems and develop mitigation plans to address them.

Communication

The project team will communicate with stakeholders regularly to keep them updated on the progress of the project. The project team will also use a variety of communication channels, such as email, meetings, and project management software, to ensure that all stakeholders are kept informed.
