Tuesday: Conducting an initial assessment
Assign a team member to oversee the initial assessment. They should create a card that outlines the objectives, scope, and methodology of the assessment. Once completed, they should add their findings to the card and share it with the rest of the team. Any necessary adjustments to the project plan can be made at this time.
Wednesday: Designing an implementation plan
Assign a team member to design an implementation plan for the System Responsibility Exterior Light project. They should create a card outlining the steps required to carry out the plan, along with any associated timelines and resources. Collaborate with the team to ensure that everything is accounted for and feasible.
