Week 1: Project Planning

Completed

The table compares the originally planned Week 1 tasks with the work actually completed. All five required Project Planning deliverables were completed. No required Week 1 deliverable was postponed.

Originally Planned Task Actual Work Completed Progress Against Plan
Finalize and publish the project proposal. Revised the proposal and appendices, updated the course deadlines, documented the Azure Virtual Desktop environment, and prepared the browser-viewable PDF. Completed as planned
Create and publish a stakeholder map. Created the stakeholder map in Figma and published the interactive website. Completed as planned
Define the project scope and expected outcomes. Documented included work, exclusions, outcomes, dependencies, constraints, acceptance criteria, and the completion boundary. Completed as planned
Create the project timeline and list every weekly update. Converted the detailed plan into calendar-week records with planned work, actual progress, evidence, schedule adjustments, and next actions. Completed as planned
Finalize the project success measurements. Defined decision-quality, timing, participant-experience, technical-readiness, and research-execution measures. Completed as planned
Publish Week 1 evidence on the landing page. Rebuilt the landing page with PDFs, the Figma stakeholder map, availability colors, weekly progress reporting, responsive formatting, and separate source files. Completed with presentation adjustments
Establish the controlled virtual study environment. Configured and verified the Windows 11 Azure Virtual Desktop session host with 2 vCPUs, 8 GiB memory, Microsoft Entra join, private networking, and healthy host-pool registration. Removed abandoned Bastion resources. Completed as planned
Postponed work: No required Week 1 Project Planning deliverable was postponed. Exact T2 and T3 thresholds, delayed-submission boundaries, memory-allocation limits, and recovery criteria remain scheduled for prototype calibration because those values require repeated testing in the completed memory-stress environment.
