V. Key Challenges
Despite the progress made, the project encountered several challenges during this reporting period:
-
Resource Constraints: Limited availability of front-end developers slowed down progress. Mitigation efforts involved redistributing tasks among the existing team members and exploring options for outsourcing.
-
Scope Creep: Additional feature requests from the client led to scope expansion. Efforts were made to carefully evaluate each request and prioritize based on impact and feasibility to minimize disruption to the project timeline.

-
Budget Overrun: Implementing additional features may lead to exceeding the project budget. Mitigation efforts involve regular budget reviews and proactive communication with the client regarding the financial implications of any proposed changes.
-
Technical Debt: Rushing through development to meet deadlines may result in accumulating technical debt. To mitigate this risk, regular code reviews and refactoring sprints are scheduled to ensure code quality and maintainability.
-
Client Expectations: Managing client expectations amidst scope changes and delays. Mitigation efforts include transparent communication, setting realistic expectations, and providing regular progress updates to keep the client informed and engaged in the project.
VII. Next Steps

-
Backend Development Sprint: Implementing backend functionality and business logic according to the project requirements.
-
QA Testing and Bug Fixes: Conducting comprehensive quality assurance testing to identify and address any issues or bugs. Ensuring the application meets quality standards before deployment.
-
Client Demo and Feedback Sessions: Organizing regular demo sessions with the client to showcase progress and gather feedback. Iteratively refining the application based on client input to ensure alignment with expectations.
