Constraints
Constraints are restrictions that affect the performance of the project, and limit project
scope, schedule, cost or quality. The following known constraints are also considered
risks:
The Project has highly constrained timeframes; Project due date is fixed.
Unanticipated obstacles, such as change in direction from the IT Council and HR
workgroup, could impact project scope and schedule.
ITMA XII member participation and availability – conflicting project priorities and
resource demands. The following matrix identifies the constraint flexibilities for the
Project as determined by the Project Team.

Scope is the most flexible in that it can be adjusted if necessary regarding functionality
and features that might be added or omitted as the project evolves. The scope is the
area that we have the most control over. As functional areas are refined by the IT
Council and HR Subcommittee, the Class have the ability to determine inclusion or
exclusion.
Project Resources additional resources can not be added as needed to
the project due to ITMA XII class size limitation; however, there is flexibility in the ITMA
XII class member’s level of participation.
Class members’ workload at their own
Department may affect their continual involvement.
The average contribution will
ensure successful completion of tasks. Project Schedule is the most constrained and
least flexible due to ITMA XII graduation completion deadline.
