Create a project charter using Microsoft Word that will be based on the following scenario:
Scenario: You have just been placed on an IT project management team to develop a master patient index (MPI) system. This 300-bed facility is currently using a paper- based system and is slowly making the transition to electronic systems. The system they want to purchase and manage is an electronic MPI system for the Admissions department. They want this system to be able to be accessed easily by other hospital departments (administrative and clinical). The systems should also have interoperability to work with their electronic pharmacy system and laboratory system (which went live 2 years ago) and eventually, with their EHR product that they plan to select and implement within the next 5 years. Two people will be helping you on the project. One is a systems analyst; the other is a person who is very familiar with project management within the facility. Based upon the information provided, construct the project charter by following these steps in the process:
Using Microsoft Word, construct the following:
Come up with a name for the project.
Identify the project stakeholders, their roles, and their titles.
Provide a brief description of the project.
Develop the measurable organizational value (MOV) for this project.
Specify what should not be included in the project’s scope.
Identify some of the risks associated with this project.
Specify the project’s scope in terms of the high-level features or functionality that should be included in the MPI system.
Specify the resources that will be required and provide an estimated cost for each resource. (Be sure to include a reference or sound basis to justify the cost for each resource.)
