I need a continuation from what you did for my paper
Assigment#2 is like a pre-project plan.
As we move forward, we need to use the information from the project proposal. Please do not go out of scope or add another feature to the project. That is one of the biggest error in project management. Â Below is a proposed outline for assignment 2. Â Â Dr. Hoawrd is going to expect charts and graphics for this assignment.
Margaret, I recommend group members should pair up for each section
Group, please let me know if you have any questions. About your task, I will do my best to help.
