Answer to Question 1

1. How much effort should be expended on the project initiation and planning process? How much effort should be expended on the PIP process, is often difficult. Practical experience has found, however, that proper and insightful project planning, including determining project scope as well as identifying project activities, can easily reduce time in later project phases.
2. Who is responsible for performing the project initiation and planning process? Most organizations assign an experienced systems analyst, or a team of analysts for large projects, to perform PIP. The analyst will work with the proposed customers of the system and other technical development staff in preparing the final plan.
3. Why is project initiation and planning such a challenging activity? PIP is viewed as a challenging activity because the objective of the PIP study is to transform a vague system request document into a tangible project description. This is an open-ended process. The analyst must clearly understand the motivation for and objectives of the proposed system.
