Introduction.
In this section, we will find the way in which it should be
present the information (User Manual, Effort, Software1,
etc.) that we have previously developed throughout the units
previous, so that, regarding the project, it has a high
level of success, as well as to stand out in the market.

The following points will be taken into account:

• Firstly, the project must be proposed in such a way


that is of interest to our consumer, for which it is
it is necessary to have a justification, as well as to take into account the
activity calendar proposed at the beginning of the project in
mention, the personnel involved and the rules or regulations to follow.

• It is necessary to carry out the process imposed previously for the


development of the project, as well as having the tools
adequate, the types of formats for its presentation, and
a small idea of how to present it in front of our
consumers.

• We also need to reach an agreement (contract) in order to


specify the goals in a bilateral environment.

4.1. Proposal.
It is a document that contains the purpose or idea that satisfies the
need or problem that the client presents: This is about
to convince someone that a project can and should be carried out
cable. Many of its elements are important and, in many cases,
mandatory. Above all, you must remember that a proposal for
The project is an argument. If you do not present a logical argument and
viable, it is likely that your proposal will be rejected.

4.1.1. Justification of the Project.


Explain the reason why and for what purpose the project will be carried out.
To provide justification, it is necessary to understand the matter well.
it will be carried out to explain why it is advisable to develop the
project, in addition to the benefits that will be obtained by solving
the problem that is presented.
It is important to consider, before starting the process, the times, the
scope and possibilities of the project. Therefore, it is advisable to answer
the following questions: what time is there to develop
project?, what theoretical aspects need to be reviewed about it?, what about
Who will be interviewed, and what should their characteristics be?
Is it the most relevant thing that is desired to be known? etc.

Useful criteria for justifying the project:


• Methodological utility.
• Convenience.
• Social relevance.
• Practical implications.
• Theoretical value.

It is appropriate to point out that not all research topics can


relying on the aforementioned criteria, this will depend on your
nature, and possibly other criteria will need to be used.

4.1.2. Activities Calendar.
Determining the duration of each of the project activities is
what is called 'Activity Calendar' or 'schedule'2of
project", this helps us establish that the project uses
adequately the time and the resources.

Every project must have a calendar with activities and tasks


from the study to get a general idea of the elaboration process, in
time term, days, months, and years. Each part of the research
It needs its specific time for every event. The schedule can

Characteristics of a schedule:

of projects.
The schedule includes a list of activities or tasks with the
expected start and end dates.
The schedule arranges the relevant activities in time for
the development of the research.
The schedule of activities is presented as a table with
two columns: Of activities or Of time

4.1.4. Communication and Monitoring Policies.


It can be defined as the process that allows the exchange of
information (message) between people. Both in relationships
merely personal as in commercial, communication is
a fundamental factor and without its mastery it is impossible to apply a
marketing philosophy6in a company. It has to communicate
increasingly and better with the market, showcasing their products
and services, while recovering the maximum information for
find out the needs of consumers, their preferences.

Techniques for project coordination:

Formal, impersonal approach.


• Documents, planning, error tracking
• Entregas (código + informe), control de versiones, cambios
Formal, interpersonal procedures.
• Quality assurance activities.
• State meetings and inspections, design and/or code.

Electronic communication

Red interpersonal
• Discussions/Meetings with personnel outside the project.

4.2. Communication and Follow-up Guidelines.


Ensure in a timely and proper manner the generation, collection,
dissemination, storage, and final location of information
of the project.

Processes:
• Communication planning: determine the information and
communications needed among the participants: who
What information is needed, when is it needed, and how will it be?
facilitated.
• Distribution of information: make available in the form and
appropriate time or needed information in each case.
• Report the execution: collect7to disseminate8reports on the
project execution (status reports, measurements of
progress, pending issues.
• Administrative Closure: generate, collect, and disseminate information
to formalize the completion of a phase or the entire project.

The interaction does not allow obtaining information from different


perspectives9and it is a nuclear part of learning. The basic idea
the interaction consists of changing the conditions of the environment of
object or agent of our interest so that it is shown to us in another
of their facets10possibly hidden in the current state.

4.2.1 Formats
A format is what allows an application to interpret the data.
raw in a file. In other words, a format is a way of
representation of this data. Many times, the formats of
files are marked in the file name extension: the
three-letter suffix with which the file name ends.

4.2.2 Tools
Project Management is the application of knowledge,
skills, tools, and techniques to the necessary activities for
achieve the project's objectives.
Project management tools are used to provide the
structure, the flexibility and the control necessary for the members of
teamwork to achieve extraordinary results on time and
within the budget.
Additionally, it should be noted that the efficient management of a
project involves the use of specific management processes for
each of the stages of it: initiation, planning, execution,
control and closure.
These tools are characterized by the following:
• The Earned Value Technique is a tool that develops and
integrate the technical parameters, costs, and planning into
a single tool. It is a performance measurement method
widely used in project management, where they are integrated
costs, deadlines, and scope.
• Gantt chart: a basic tool used to make
the planning of a project's work. It is a diagram of
bars that show the origin and the end of the different units
minimum work requirements and the task groups as well as the
dependencies between minimum work units (they can be end-
beginning, end-end, beginning-end, beginning-beginning.

Among the two tools mentioned above, I consider the one of Value.
Livestock of great importance as it allows us to track problems
from the beginning of a project, allowing us to make decisions about
a more critical and timely way.

powerful. It is also open source.
• Teambox.
• Basecamp.
• [Link].
• Wonderkit.
• Project-open. It is free software.

Chrome for time management. They are as follows:
• StayFocusd.
• Incredible StartPage.

4.3 Contract
The contract is an agreement of wills, verbal or written, manifested
in common between two or more people with capacity (parts of
contract), which they are bound by virtue of it, regulating their
relations relating to a specific purpose or thing, and to which
compliance can be compelled reciprocally, if the contract
it is bilateral, or compel one party to the other, if the contract is
unilateral.
Anyway, the contract, in general, has a connotation
patrimonial, including partially in those held within the framework
of family law, and it is part of the broader category of
legal business. It is a fundamental function of the contract to generate effects

Contract management, also known as

suppliers, employees, and other business partners. These partners
they can include lenders and borrowers. An administrator of
contract supervises compliance with the contract and ensures that the
parts adhere to the specifications of the agreement.
Although contract management and project management are different,
they often interrelate.
