Project Plan For Launching New Education Market App – Nickle-Byte Pty Ltd

Project plan the crucial part of implementing any innovative idea successfully. Therefore, in order to lead a successful project for launching a new Smartphone based and Web based application Nickle-Byte Pty Ltd needs an effective and comprehensive project plan. Therefore, in this report a project plan will be proposed considering the required action plan, requirements, recommendations and budget.

The objective of this project will be:

• To collect adequate information about the Australian education market
• To conceptualise an application considering its optimisation and utility
• To feedback financially in different segments of the project development
• To complete all the activities within the deadline
• To maintain collaboration and integrity for improving the efficiency

• Finding major online networks that holds Australian Educational information
• Browsing and recording all the available information on Australian Education Market
• Normalising the records and developing different segregate for effecting information processing
• Interviewing some experts in education market regarding the current scope and future growth
• Prioritise the collected data as per the scope and potential changes in education market
• Developing the concept of the application in prototype stage
• Planning user interface keeping the user friendliness and utility in mind
• Coding and developing the application for Alpha test
• Testing and develop the final application both for Phone and Web based HTML platform

The following data has been found from the Education market data collection

• In 2017, 3,849,225 students have enrolled which is increment of 1.3% from the previous year
• Australia has 9444 schools where, NSW, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia are the major area of school development.
• In 2017, 65.6% of students were enrolled in government schools, 19.9% in catholic schools and 14.5% independent schools.
• In 2017 Australia had 404,580 school staff, where 70% are teachers
• Year 7 to 12 Apparent Retention Rate for Australia was 84.8% where, 86% is the non-indigenous rate and 62.4% is the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
• Student enrolments increased in government school from 65.4% to 65.6% in 2017
• According to researcher this biasness towards Government schools will be increasing up to next 20 years.

The following requirements are essential to make the target application more effective and popular:

• In order to make the application more optimised in terms of performance, the user interface graphics should rely on more Random Memory rather than Cashed pages of Processor.
• The JavaScript should be used for Web based platform instead of visual script to enhance security and advanced integrity [3]
• Complying with the Cyber security and privacy terms and condition the Smart phone application should import the user’s geographical location after having the acknowledgement from the user.
• The user interface should be developed based on less hierarchical operational interface and more on recent used user activities.
• The User interface should provide a internal search engine which fetch the data from Google Big-Data and will present the data after real time sorting and segregation. It will enable better navigational ability to user [4].
• The phone application should be launched in alpha testing stage, to have better understanding of user needs and potential changes required for more appreciation. The Web-based application will be released after finalising the development.
• After final release, the Beta test should be enabled for ensuring the bug-free experience for the user.

Conclusion 

Throughout the process the management of Nickle-Byte Pty Ltd has to maintain collaborative approach to all the departments including finance, marketing, Developers, designers, Coders and others. The leadership approach will be also very essential part of this project to make the employees motivated towards implementing the innovative application successfully.
