Project Management Process - Phase 2 - Planning - Develop Project Design (#12 in the Hut Project Management Process)
By John Filicetti
Description
The Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and Architect on the project team will complete the project design with information gathered during the requirements phase along with additional detailed information from the customer team and customer environment. The designs will progress from Conceptual, through Logical, to Physical for many project types.
The design will be reviewed and validated before a final project design is created. All versions of the design should be placed in the project repository for reference. All design meetings should be documented and the Meeting Reports placed in the project repository.
In some cases, equipment will be required for project execution. If you project calls for equipment, obtain the equipment and track the equipment via an inventory list.
