Simulation Description:
In this simulation, you've been named the project manager on a new product development project at HealthMax Software. The goal of the project is to develop HealthRecords, a new medical records software system. For HealthMax, a small company, the success of this project has become vital to its long-term viability. It is now March, and the plan is to have three satisfied early-adopter customers and a product that is ready to launch at a major trade show in June of next year. The schedule is tight, and the budget for the project has been set with no possibility of an increase.
This simulation is designed for adult learners with some project management experience.
You will be asked to make a series of decisions during the simulation, and each decision will impact the project in different ways. As you make these decisions, an adaptive scoreboard will reflect the impact of your choices on project success.

- Project Integration Management
