3.2 Project closure reflective report
The project closure report is the final document that displays all the features of the website. In order to prepare this project, initially I have analyzed the features of the existing websites of Archives. Then, I have planned for additional requirements those can eventually resolve the issues that are hampering the project outcomes. For redeveloping the website, I have thought of external hosting for update and post implementation changes. I think the website must add GET, POST, PUT and DELETE data using the concept of Application Programming Interface (API) within the allotted timeframe. Again the API must contain mix official records and user granted content as well. I think the website will be enough user-friendly, compatible, reliable and accessible. In addition to this, I have also thought about the privacy and security of the website which ensures that none of the unauthenticated user will be able to access data from the server. The prototype or authentic design is approved by the project sponsor.
4. Project evaluation report and post implementation report
The final project evaluation and post implementation project implies the human resources, communication and stakeholder area associated to the project “redevelopment of the website of archives”. In order to reduce the workload from the project team members I have divided the total project in small segments and for each segment cost and human resources are allotted also. I think that, for developing the project open communication is the best way to communicate. It will help the project manager and the project team members to communicate with each other. The system developers are responsible to track the day to day technical upgrades. All those technologies should be incorporated to the newly developed system.
4.1 Ongoing risks
Issues ID |
Risk summary |
Proposed action |
Financial risks |
Due to incorrect feasibility study the developers faced major commercial risk |
At the project initiation phase feasibility study should be done based on the project resources. |
Communication error |
Intra organizational conflict raised |
Open communication should be implemented |
Lack of security |
Due to adoption of lack of encryption technology in the newly build website, outsiders can easily access data from the server. |
Proper encryption algorithm should be incorporated |
Web application error |
Due to monitoring and controlling error, applications may fail to meet the requirements. |
SLA and other license for running the application should be incorporated |

6. Identification of skill development/training needs to be applied in HR communication and stakeholder management
In order to avoid organizational conflicts and develop the redesigned website for the consumer, proper training programs should be arranged and the applied programs are as follows:
Problem resolving and conflict resolving skills: It is essential for the project team members to have proper conflict resolving and problem resolving capability to make sure that the project is meeting its desired requirements. This skill is very essential as it will help them in reducing issues that the team members refer to various project documents. Professional motivation and leadership of the project managers will help them to gain these skills.
Training and development program: Project training and development program should be arranged by the project manager to make the team members familiar to their job roles. Project managers should process knowledge regarding good conflict skills. Regular conversion and team conversation will help the project team members to keep themselves engage to their job roles.
