The most important for all of you now is to understand your area/domain and to be able to focus the problem you'll be working on and define the scale of the project.
Some relevant project management pointers at this stage:
-
Analyse the project information (so far)
- What’s the project about? Start formulating
- What are the goals?
-
What do you know, what do you need to know more of?
-
What are prerequisites and what’s up to you to define/decide?
-
What are the external resources (tech, personnel, etc)
-
Initial risk analysis
-
Agree on a project leader – and give him/her the mandate!
-
Agree on the initial work organisation: e.g. meeting formalities, sanctions, availability of work force, etc
-
Set up a joint work/documentation area of some kind – assign as action point (AP) to someone
-
Do a competence and expectations inventory
-
Discuss on relevant roles in your project (based on your analysis)
-
Do an initial responsibility matrix (probably with very few tasks still…)
-
Do the overview planning (all the way up to mid-December, the latter half tentative)
-
Set milestones (again, latter half tentative)
-
Discuss relevant activities
-
Turn activities -> tasks (particularly now in the beginning)
-
Initial dependencies between tasks and milestones
