The results might be a widening of the scope or the inclusion of additional features. Provide precise examples to highlight the differences between the two ideas. What, in your opinion, is the root of these two problems? What would happen if these two unfavourable things happened at the same time, making this endeavour a disaster?
Possible outcomes include broadening the scope or introducing new features. Provide some examples to illustrate the dissimilarities between the two concepts. Can you provide any light on where these two issues first arose? What would the absolute worst case scenario be for this effort if these two things went wrong at the same time?

defines two distinct forms of management; how may an understanding of these change the value proposition for the project's end users?
The failure of the baggage system at Denver International Airport may have been the result of sloppy software project management. Is it feasible to provide an example that describes the steps involved in project management? If a system may be a scientific triumph but a financial disaster for the company, how does that work?

Using an example to explain the steps involved in project management would be useful, but is it even possible? How, exactly, can a system get praise from scientists yet sink a company's finances?
Problem Statement: Stakeholder and Project Quality Management “Hercules Creative Solutions” has successfully bagged two research and development related projects from ministry of science and technology. You are working on one of a project as senior project manager which is related to develop a gadget for the help of physically disabled persons in their day to day commuting. The main challenge for you and your team is that neither you nor any of your team members have ever done this type of project. USAID and one of a leading bank are the sponsors of this project. The designing of the product has been outsourced to one of a very famous engineering firms of the country. For the procurement purpose, two potential vendors are on board. The company you are working for is a multinational company and has very strict procurement procedure and procurement audit is mandatory at the end of the project. Stringent quality standards have to be followed which includes but not limited to rigorous…
Read the following case study. What would be your recommendations? Lack of Scope Definition Findings Sponsor View: Projects start with a high-level idea that has been defined and proposed in business terms, not project terms. Sponsors are focused on their customers and competitors, and do not think in terms of “scope,” much less in terms of “scope management.” Likewise, sponsors are typically not familiar with the concept of project charters, which explains why project managers usually create them. Sponsors rarely think that their scope is undefined, and they expect others to quickly match their level of understanding. They have been planning and thinking about their business needs, sometimes for months or years, and expect project teams to get up to speed fast. Project View: The high-level scope is best documented in a project charter and expanded in the scope statement. These high-level views are not sufficient for understanding scope until a decomposed deliverable-based work…
Denver International Airport's broken baggage system might have been caused by poorly managed software development. Using an example to explain the steps involved in project management would be useful, but is it really feasible? In what ways is it conceivable for a system to be a scientific triumph but a financial disaster for the enterprise?
Extending the project's scope or adding components might also result. Give examples to help us grasp the contrasts between the two notions. What caused these two issues? What would happen if this project's two worst-case scenarios occurred simultaneously?
define risk identification, list the key activities of risk identification, identify the key deliverable of each key activity, and then briefly (i.e., in one to five sentences) elaborate how to create the key deliverable(s
