Assessment Description.
The purpose of this individual assessment is to foster students’ ability to evaluate overall project
performance and compliance with quality standards.
Assessment Instructions
Presume that you have been employed as the project management consultant for the project you
have chosen to analyse in the first assessment, and that project supervisors have asked you to
explore various project management software to determine the best suitable option.
Based on this task, you have been given instructions to identify three different software solutions
that are explicitly designed for project management and review each one by referring to the
specifications and functionalities that are publicly available for review through their various sales
communications.
After your review, the project supervisors have asked you to record a 10-minute video, in which you
are to explain to the project supervisors how each software program could assist the project
manager and project team of the chosen project in the first assessment with each of the IPECC
stages by:
• Comparing and contrasting the strengths and weaknesses of each software choice in
relation to the project you chose in the first assessment.
• Identifying the software, you would recommend for use in the project you have chosen in the
first assessment by providing the rationale for your recommendation.
