## Resources, financial and quality plan
At the project inception, it is still unclear the amount of resources that will be required to complete the project, however it is expected to be in the ballpark of 6,000 hours of effort, SGD 20,000 of cost of infrastructure and SGD 20,000 of marketing and communication expenses.

In order to provide transparency for the leadership, the team and the community, the project will be developed in 6 phases, each of them with its own Terms of Reference, budget and schedule, which should be approved by the leadership of the project on each successive Stage Gate in order to move into the next phase.
