1. Microsoft Project 2007 Template Project Chapter 5 - #5 Ala’a Abu Tabanjha William Evans Brian Barkowski Eric Crump Ahmad Atiq

3. Critique The template is very clear in what needs to be done. It includes the duration (start to finish dates), Who does what, and when it needs to be done by. The template breaks down tasks, and allows people to work on smaller parts of the whole project. On a side note – I did not like the fact that Microsoft forces you to have cookies enabled in your web browser to download templates (booo!)

4. Software Development Template Calendar – Clear and straightforward Gant Chart – Thorough but unrealistic Network Diagram – Great workflow, detailed and easy to follow Resource Usage – Poor, missing key personnel

5. Marketing Campaign Planning Well Organized Meticulous Too time consuming for certain campaigns

6. Customer Relations Feedback from customers should be evaluated at an earlier stage

7. Create Buzz With the influence of today’s blogosphere, generating “buzz” at an earlier stage may be beneficial in certain marketing campaigns.

8. Customer feedback monitoring

9. Very clear template. Includes follow up procedure for customer satisfaction Limited focus on how the data is collected.

10. Vendor Request For Proposal (RFP) Solicitation Suggestions to make template better – The template should broke down by hours instead of days. – This will allow the project manager see where the most time is being the allocated. – The payment rate of wages for each employee should be add. – This allows the project manager to develop a budget.
