Project Management Assignment

The document outlines the scope of a project to develop an online payment system. It includes 13 scope items such as developing an IT architecture plan, software requirements, and integrating the new system with back-office systems. It also provides notes on the scope, including that contract management will be part of the RFP process and a contract needs to be created for outsourced software development. Finally, it discusses the work breakdown structure (WBS) format which will have three levels - the project name at level 1, scope items at level 2, and activities and deliverables for each item at level 3.
