Question

You are a consultant building a system for a client. During the analysis phase of the project the owner of the client's company states, "I only want a written report, not an oral presentation which is too much like a sales pitch. I just want the facts about the scheduling and costs of the project." Do you agree with that point of view? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, I will have to agree with the point of view of providing a report to the client, this is so that the entire facts about the project such as the scheduling and also the projects costs and other things can be properly detailed and neatly recorded and singed off by the client in the analysis phase.

Hence, being a consultant in charge of building a system for a client, if during the analysis phase of the project the owner of the company wants a written report, there is no need to deny. We should document our analysis in the report but have some discretion as to use it for this project purposes only. Also, we should put in other details such as scheduling, costs, extra costs which can happen, delays which can be there and expected completion based on the starting date. Thus every positive and negative points which the client needs to note about the project can be written in that report.
