Assessment Task
In industry, teams use milestones to present the progress of their work to their clients, receive
feedback and make the required updates. For the two milestones in this assessment, you will present
your written progress and verbally update your facilitator about what your team has done and what
you plan to do for the following milestones. Your team should incorporate feedback from each
milestone presentation into your next assessment and thus demonstrate an ability to address
feedback and meet client requirements.
Assessment 2 comprises two milestones in which you will record your progress and receive feedback,
before the final submission of your report in Assessment 3.
It is important to refer back to your Assessment 1, Project Plan when completing Assessment 2 to
ensure consistency with the information being presented and to set your team up for success for the
cohesive final report of Assessment 3.
Please refer to the Instructions for details on how to complete this task.
Context
This trimester, you will actively contribute to a project team to deliver a business solution for a client.
The assessment format is modelled on industry practice and the subject is designed to leverage your
knowledge of information systems management and industry techniques. The implementation of
true-to-life industry practice will help you transition to industry.
Each team will complete one project focused on a client’s brief. The assignments are structured in
sections. Each section builds on the previous section and will be brought together in a final report for
your client.
Task Instructions
To complete this assessment task, you must complete the two milestone assessments outlined in
this document. In completing this assessment, you should:
1. Review your subject notes to establish the relevant area of investigation that applies to the
case, and re-read any relevant readings for this subject;
2. Re-read the case organisation/client brief provided by your learning facilitator;
3. Review your subject notes from across the course to establish the relevant area of
investigation that applies to the case. Re-read any relevant readings for this subject. Before
you start writing, refer back to Assessment 1 in which you planned your approach to the
assessments. MIS608 Agile Project Management and PROJ6000 Project Management may
provide relevant information; and
4. Consider using graphical representation. The graphical representation of ideas and diagrams
in the form of tables, graphs, diagrams and models is encouraged. These must be anchored in
the context of the material and explained and justified if they are to be included. No executive
summary is required.

Project Status Report
Each week, you have been producing and presenting to your lecturer a weekly project status report.
For the status report in Module 4.2 (Week 8), you should provide your one-minute status report
update before your ‘Client Report—Section A, Presentation’.
Your status report must be uploaded to the relevant blackboard discussion forum before the
commencement of the class in which you are presenting.
Minutes of Client Report—Section B, Presentation
Each week, you have been producing meeting minutes following your status report presentation to
your lecturer.
The meeting minutes for Module 3.2 (Week 8) should include both the status report presentation
and any feedback that you received for your ‘Client Report—Section A’ presentation.
The meeting minutes should be uploaded to the relevant blackboard discussion forum at the end of
class (Module 4.2, Week 8).
Format of the Report
The report should use 11-point Arial or Calibri font, be 1.5–line spaced for ease of reading and
display page numbers at the bottom of each page. If diagrams or tables are used, attention should
be given to pagination to avoid the loss of meaning and continuity by unnecessarily splitting
information over two pages. Any diagrams must be appropriately captioned.
Referencing
It is expected that you reference any lecture notes used and any additional sources in the relevant
subject area based on your readings and further research. It is essential that you use appropriate
APA style for citing and referencing research. For more information on referencing, visit:

You are strongly advised to read the rubric, which is an evaluation guide with the criteria for grading
the assignment. This will give you a clear picture of what a successful report looks like.
