### Webinar: Effective Strategies for Writing Proposal Work Plans for Research Software

Wednesday, August 10, 2022  
Online, in the webinar series _Best Practices for HPC Software Developers_

In this webinar, the presenters will quickly survey software project scoping, requirements elicitation, and estimation methods appropriate for the pre-proposal phase, then explain how these can be used to generate a strong and convincing work plan. Topics will include vision and scope, concept of operations, and requirements specification documents; work breakdown structures; requirements / task matrices; and Gantt charts. Strategies for maximizing the impact of these artifacts within a research proposal will be discussed, with suggestions for further reading.
