Or, IT projects can be built from the ground up, in-house. Imagine you and your colleagues are consultants who have been asked to weigh in on the custom vs. off-the-shelf question at the beginning of an IT project at a Fortune 500 company. • What are the benefits of choosing and customizing off-the-shelf software to meet your project’s needs vs. building the entire project in-house.

This includes your initial post and 2 replies to other students. Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: In a perfect world, every project would be characterized by clear project requirements that never changed; motivated/capable team members; proven technologies; more than adequate budgets in terms of time, money, and resources; responsible/knowledgeable stakeholders; and seamless, effective communication so that when a problem arises, it is communicated and dealt with quickly. However, we do not live in a perfect world!

The project you describe may be from work (such as being affected by an IT upgrade project), school (such as participating in a team assignment), or personal life (such as planning a wedding). • .

Sometimes, project managers gather descriptions of features that weren't included in the initial release of a product and slate them for inclusion into a "2.0" version of the deliverables. Imagine you have been asked to submit a feature request for the VitalSource application you use to read your textbook for this course. • What feature would you request?
