Describe, in (500) no more than 750 words, the five project life-cycles defined by Schmidt (predictive, iterative, incremental, agile, and hybrid) and justify which life-cycle should be used to complete the Kitchen Heaven Project.

Project Life-Cycles

Reread the Kitchen Heaven Project Case Study in Heldman et al. pages 84-87, 139-141, and 283-285 and read pages 190-193. (See attached MGT-440 Week 2 Project Reading)

Part 1: Action Steps Column (A) (See attached Spreadsheet)

Each outcome will consist of a minimum of five action steps/activities.
Each action step/activity will have at least one assumption.

Part 2: Project Life-Cycles

Describe, in (500) no more than 750 words, the five project life-cycles defined by Schmidt (predictive, iterative, incremental, agile, and hybrid) and justify which life-cycle should be used to complete the Kitchen Heaven Project. (See attached Strategic Project Management read Chapter 8 pages 125-137)
