Charter For Virtucon/Globex Scenario Project
Project Description and Overview
The project charter document is developed using the case study project of ‘Development of Mobile Application and Website for Globex-I Crop Project’. The main purpose of the report is to provide the stakeholders with information aligning with the development of the improved communication and development. The information would be transferred about the project expected budget, schedule, timeline, and other requirements.
The project is developed for developing a mobile application and a website for integrating the operations of Globex. The completion of the project development would be helpful for ensuring the alignment of the successful formation of the improved project development. The application development and website development would include the successful integration of factors.

Part 4: Risk Analysis
System Issues is a major internal risk resulting in issues of implying management process and development of the mobile application.
Lack of access would result in forming issues for managing the proper and effective implication management and developing probable development model.
Risk of schedule is a known risk that would result in forming the probable issues of completing the project in the estimated time.
Cost Overshoot is an unknown risk that may or may not occur for the completion of the project operations.

The project needs are identified, project charter plan is made, and feasibility study of the project is done are the activities of the initiation phase. In this phase, the development of the initiation of the project would be effectively implied for managing the activities and implying the management of the activities.
The project planning is comprised of activities like project activities are scheduled, project resources are estimated, resources are allocated, communication plan is developed, and resources management plan is developed. The completion of the planning phase would be done for aligning the management of the successive management.
The monitoring and controlling of the project activities would be helpful for prototype is developed, features of application and website is defined, project needs are defined, functional options are identified, mobile application platform database made, mobile application is formed, and integration works is executed. The monitoring and controlling of the project operations would be effectively managed with the consideration of the improved factors.
The project closure would be achieved with the entitlement of the management is requested, issues are managed, project risks are managed, meetings are undertaken, earned value analysis is done, sign off, and post project review. The closing of the project would be effectively deployed for analyzing the successful integration management.
Quality Statements
Globex would involve the management of the facilities along with the development of the mobile application and website development for integrating the activities.
Verification Activities
Testing methods like Alpha testing, Beta testing, Prototype testing, Black box testing, white box testing, and simulation.
Scope and Scope Management Plan
Validation Activities
Quality analysis using 7QC and Checklist documentation would be effectively deployed for management of the activities.

The implementation of the knowledge development would be effectively implied for easing the management of the activities for enduring the alignment of the successive management. The paper has been developed for implying the development of the successive and imperial management process. The utilization of the improved functional analysis would help in taking care of the improved project alignment and development. The management of the successful completion of the project would be responsibility of the improved function alignment. The users would get the benefit of implying the increment of the successful integration and development. The management of the activities would also be helpful for taking care of the successful management of operations.

Risk management is helpful for managing the development of the activities and implying the development and taking care of the risk assessment. The management of the risk factors would be helpful for the alignment activities. The management of the risk factors would be helpful for integrating the development. The management of the risk factor would be helpful for the management of the factors and listing the development of the successful management. The management of the risk and management of the successive development would help in taking care of the factors for integrating and implying improved functional development. The risk management holds an integral role for taking care of the activities and aligning the successful integration management.

The analysis of the paper for analysing the case study of the smallholder farming systems from East and West Africa would help in analysing the prospect of integrating the management of the improved operations. The analysis would be effectively implied for taking care of the factors for management of the factors for developing the complete inclusion. The successive development would be effectively managed with the information alignment and development. The analysis of the case study helped in ensuring the complete management operations. The final closure of the project activities would be supported by the involvement of the activities.
