Preliminary Project Requirements Good Project Management Skill Good Communication skills Content Content Content Well organized and informative documents are number one attraction for visitors Well-structure website is important because it provided easy navigation for our audience Great team cohesiveness Website Project greatly depends upon teamwork. Team harmony promises prompt and quality product delivery

6. Requirements (Scope) Professional web design (unique, serious, and comfortable) Well-organized structure and easy to navigate About seven main categories and about 20 sub-categories Excellent articles and publications Excellent news summaries Currently up-to-date High-traffic

7. Schedule Estimate (time) Process from initiating the project, hiring workers, to launching of the website, it was estimated to take at least 6 months. It will take another 6 months to expand web content and traffic

8. Using Microsoft Project for scheduling

9. Budget Estimate and Financial Analysis (cost) Estimated budget for setting up a content-rich and functional website is $70K Overall Justice Project is $150K this year Potential funding next two years is $300K Likely to attract other funding

10. Potential Risks Website did not bring in funding Website did not bring in traffic Discontinuation of funding

11. Website Project Yes No No Future Funding (20%) -$70kX20% = (-$14k) Future Funding (40%) $300X40% = $120K Future Funding (80%) $(300k-70k)X80% = $184K No Future Funding (60%) $0X60% = $0 $170K $120K Risks Analysis

12. Measures of Quality (indirectly) Citation from other related sources (links from other well-known websites) High traffic (page visits, document download, average view time) Received emails or/and phone calls for good comments or further information Received further funding

13. Challenges to creating a GOOD Website Overall: Research, organize, translate, create, and categorize related documents Good website structure required -- GOOD Planning Support from Program Director, Project Manager and Web Developer Managerial Coordination: Project Manager may be too busy, and lack of interaction with co-workers Delegates responsibility, determines use of budget resources

14. Assumptions and Constraints Assumptions: Project Manager has project management experience. Justice website could bring in future funding? Website will increase organization’s popularity Does people care? Who is our audience? Constraints: Student workers work for low wage and they may lack professional skills and professionalism Unexpected dismissal of manager or skillful workers will delay project Computers/resources distribution Problem on monitoring Mexico news

15. Analysis of Option and Recommendation Project manager may take project management class Internet traffic takes time to build up. Learn website optimization skill is helpful. Allocate more human resource on developing web content.

16. Final Thoughts Development of Justice in Mexico Website will have some positive impacts on justice reform in Mexico Continue financial support from our sponsors It makes sense to construct an informative website for any organization regardless of its business objective. In my opinion, if an organization lacks its own website, its corporate and institutional identity is compromised
