Team member roles, Determine the skills required for each role, business and finance Assignment: I need help writing a research paper.

Question description

Assigning team members to task roles is a delicate and critical
task. When done correctly, the team members will be excited about their role on
the project, feel confident they can successfully complete the tasks assigned,
and know they will have some conquerable challenges as they move through the
project.
To effectively assign tasks to people (and people to tasks), the
project manager must perform the following:

Identify the roles
needing to be filled.
Determine the skills
required for each role.
Determine the skill sets
of the team members.
Assign team members to roles.

The objective for this assignment is to effectively select your
team from the following people:

Pat is
available for 24 hours a week at $115 per hour. Pat was involved in
several upgrade projects for this package and can act as business analyst,
developer, or tester. Pat is very comfortable with the legacy system and
does not see the benefit of moving to the Web-based version. He feels that
the end users do not fully utilize the functionality they already have and
will not use this new functionality effectively.
Terry is
available for 24 hours a week at $100 per hour. Terry was involved in the
original installation and every upgrade since then. She tends to be in
developer or tester roles for this system but acts as business analyst for
other systems. She is very excited about the Web-based package and the
functionality it provides. She is concerned, however, that the end users
do not have the computer savvy to use it.
Robin is
available for 30 hours per week at $100 per hour. She was involved in the
last two upgrades as a business analyst and has been trying to become
involved in other systems and business areas. She was actively involved in
the development of a custom Web-based application as a programmer. This
was considered a skills development opportunity because her Web
programming skills are not strong.
Chris is
available for 24 hours per week at $80 per hour. He is new to the IT
department; he was previously a customer service representative. He just
completed his undergraduate degree in computer science and has experience
with Web programming and software testing techniques.
Jan is
available for 16 hours per week at $115 per hour. Jan is also new to the
IT department. She was previously a consultant and was on process
reengineering projects, including several for billing functions. She
previously worked with the Web version product of the vendor’s competitor.
