ASIP-PM2-6a Yasmin Scope - Focus Groups

Description

Scenario: Remember Yasmin? As you may remember from our example of Principles of Universal Design and our lesson on Leadership Styles, Yasmin is now a Software Development Intern. Currently, she's working on a project to research a new technology, "ASIPStudio", and present her findings back to her team. Yasmin's supervisor has a few requirements for her project:

  1. It must be presented in a format that aligns with existing team software for ease of access; in this case, Yasmin's team uses Microsoft Office suite.
  2. It must tell us if it can be used to meet corporate social responsibility (CSR) needs.
  3. Yasmin's research must come with an accompanying business report so members from other teams can read and use the results. This was requested by another team's manager.
  4. From Yasmin's research, her supervisor would like to hear recommendations for next steps for the team.

Yasmin was given 30 days to complete her project, with a budget of $300, which just about covers the cost of the software and office supplies needed. Yasmin has also received a few additional requests from other team members. Should these requests be in-scope or out-of-scope?
