discuss the main components of an IT project proposal
Ans) The main components of an IT project proposal:
1. Abstract/Summary:
The abstract is the most important component of the proposal.
Spend time developing the best possible title. If the length is not
mandated, it should be no longer than one half to one page
maximum.
Use bolded subheadings. Include highlights in the topic sentence in
each section of the proposal.
What will be done, by whom, how, over what period of time? What is
the problem/need? Who will the outcomes benefit?
2. Statement of Need:
What is the issue that you are addressing and why does it
matter?
Why is what you propose necessary? What is the void in
Knowledge?
Who benefits? Indicate the public good, not just the effect on
campus.
Why hasn't this issue been addressed sufficiently in the past? Who
else is working in this field, what have they done, and why isn't
that enough? Demonstrate your knowledge of the field.
Provide convincing evidence that what you are proposing does not
duplicate other work. Replication of someone else's work in a new
environment or larger scale may be fundable.
3. Project Activity, Methodology and Outcomes:
Why did you choose to address the issue in the manner that you
have? Are there other approaches? If so, why aren't they
appropriate to the situation?
What are the specific activities involved? Who will do them?
Present a timeline of activities. Tables and charts work best here.
They crystallize data, break up pages of narrative, and convey
extensive information well in a limited space.
What specific outcomes will be achieved? What will change?
Why are you/your organization the best one to do what you propose
to do? Is it an extension of successful, innovative work or a pilot
project you already completed?
4. Evaluation:
Essential piece that should be both quantitative and
qualitative, if feasible.
Outline clearly the methodology that you will use to assess the
projects success.
5. Dissemination:
Dissemination should be linked to your project goals and
objectives. If you are trying to affect policy, your dissemination
plan should target policy-makers, media, and affected
populations.
Describe your communication strategy.
Be creative. Sending an article to a professional journal is only
one of many options. Consider submitting op-ed pieces to newspapers
and articles to more popular periodicals; work with University
Relations to obtain newspaper coverage and interviews on local
radio stations; engage in conference presentations, community
outreach activities, presentations to policy-makers and community
groups, such as the Chamber of Commerce; launch a web site or blog;
convene work groups of your peers; create briefing papers, press
releases, videos; and, list yourself on speakers bureaus.
6. Budget and Continuation Funding:
Show your budget in table form and use a budget narrative to
explain each item.
Only Include other sources of funding if the funder mandates it's
inclusion. UMass policy does not allow including in-kind or outside
contributions unless it is required, as it adds administrative
burden and costs.
Indicate how the project will be funded or be sustainable after the
grant funds have run out.
The Office of Grants and Contract Administration (OGCA) makes
available all university policies covering all legal, fiscal, human
resources and intellectual property issues.
