What are my responsibilities as a DoIT project team member?

I’ve been added to a project—now what?

Welcome to the project team! Here’s what you need to know:

Using the Smartsheet Project Plan

Your team will use the Smartsheet Project Plan to organize and track progress. Each team member is responsible for populating and updating their assigned tasks within the plan. While your project manager will assist with assigning tasks, setting dates, and determining milestones, every team member must take ownership of their tasks by keeping them updated as the project progresses. The Smartsheet Project Plan will include key milestones that mark significant points in the project timeline. It’s essential to stay aware of these milestones and align your tasks to meet them. If you anticipate any delays or challenges in meeting deadlines, you should communicate these as early as possible.

What is the point of the project plan?

The Smartsheet project plan is intended for the project team to use as a tool. It is intended to be a living document for the project team to stay on top of tasks and keep the project moving as intended. We all have operational responsibilities, other projects, and varying commitments in other areas. The project plan should be the one-stop shop to everything project-related. Add comments, link Google Docs or myUMBC posts, and add tasks and sub-tasks as needed throughout the project.
