Your project schedule should include all of the detailed project schedules, including the release date. The team determines the release date after negotiating the Functional Specification draft and reviewing the Master Project Plan draft. It might be necessary for the team to modify some of the Functional Specification or Master Project Plan to meet a required release date. Although features, resources, and release date can vary, a fixed release date will help the team prioritize features, assess risks, and plan adequately. The key to project success is finding the right balance between resources, deployment date, and features.
The following figure shows a sample schedule. You can use the “Sample Project Schedule,” in the ProjSche.mpp file on the Resource Kit companion CD, as a template for developing your schedule.
