7. Module 4: Establish your project lifecycle
1) Module profile
Foundation of process model of Microsoft Solution Frame
State the responsibility of each stage
2) Foundation of process model for Microsoft solution architecture
I. Discussion: What is your life life cycle?
You are usually used to organize your work milestones
Point out the typical product of your project
II. Benefits of process models using Microsoft Solutions Framework
Acceleration project submit orderly products
Keep the solution consistent with the business goal
Add predictability and visibility
Providing a phased transfer of the operation
III. Stage and milestones of the process model of the Microsoft Solutions Frame
Imaginary phase (function range is passed)
The plan phase (project plan is passed)
Development phase (completed in function)
Stable stage (release preparation)
Deployment phase (deployment)
IV. The process model of the Microsoft Solutions framework is an iterative method.
Minimize risks by subdividing large items into multiple versions
V. The benefits of using multiple versions
Uncertainty and variations within management functions
Encourage sustained and enhanced improvements
Is a shortened release time
Set clear and powerful goals for team members
Promote the end of the project
Vi. Use a milestone on the trajectory
Milestones are used to plan and control project processes and arrange primary products issuance
Use milestones to have the following benefits:
l Help synchronous work elements
l Provide external visibility to the process and quality
l Make corrective corrections on the half road
l Pay attention to reviews for targets and distribution products
l Provides an improvement point for work before advancing
VII. Types of Milestones for Microsoft Solutions Framework
Microsoft Solution Framework uses two types of milestones:
l The main milestones identify a stage to another stage of conversion
l Temporary milestones indicate the process within a stage and will divide a big effort into a work section.
VIII. Applying the process model of the Microsoft Solution Frame for each project
The design of the process model of the Microsoft solution framework is suitable
Each team can use the following guide to determine what kind of temporary milestone you need:
l About the basic decision of the project type
l Consider external events and risks
l Avoid no milestones for a long time
l Combined milestones into the deliverable product
l Only useful milestones recommended by Microsoft Solutions Framework
IX. Use milestones as recognition and learning
Milestone review meeting
l Get consistency between customers, investors, sponsors and teams
l Ensure that the decision to continue or stop
Review meeting after milestone
l Sharing team learned lessons
l Improve the process of sub-stage
X. Basic guidelines for process models applied to Microsoft Solutions Framework
Work for a common goal
Keep keen, expect changes
Focus on business value
Encourage open exchange
3) Clear the task of each stage
I. Team participates in every stage of the project
All characters in all stages have appeared
Each role has submitted items at each stage
Not all team members have been equally activated at each stage.
II. Different roles drive different stages
milestone
Microsoft Solutions Frame Role Group
Function range
Product manager
Project plan is passed
Program manager
Functional range
Developers and user experience
Preparation
Test and release manager
Deployment
Release manager
4) Summary of modules
Phase and milestones are powerful tools that maintain project along trajectories
Main milestone logo two stages conversion
Temporary milestones have team definitions, used to maintain the process visible
All roles are responsible for every stage, but each role will be more active in a stage than in another stage.
