Scope: Scope is the detailed information about the features of the project and project requirement. Project management scope refers to the vision, product, service and the output provide by the project. It will measure the project cost, quality and time requirements.(Kumar, and et al, 2017)

Scope Management Plan:-Project management consist two types of scope which are Product Scope and Project Scope. Project scope is the work that needed for accomplishment of product delivery and services. Product scope is the features and functions that distinguish the product itself. Project scope management plan process are planning, controlling and closing and To define the scope of project, Project manager needs to follows various steps which are as follows:-

• Hardware Resource
• Client/server Resource
• Technology Resource
• Facility Resource
• Project gathering Resource

Project manager will uses the MS project for managing the role of resources, like people requires are engineer, technician, system designer. As well software, hardware resources such as network router/switches, office rooms, internet connection, web server and etc.

Work Break down structure: It is the Hierarchical representation of the activities and sub activities of the online ticket booking project. WBS provide necessary framework about the project cost and control with scheduling.

Table 1 MS project management

The MS project of the online ticket booking system provides estimation of time and cost required for the project accomplishment to the project manager. AS shown in the table the estimated time will be the 80days and estimated cost will be approx $15,018. This will provide project manager to assessment of project scope. (Kumar, and et al, 2017)

Nicholas, 2012 has conducted the research on recent development and research opportunities in the field of project management. For conducting the whole research author has used the qualitative analysis and used the secondary data for getting the solution of research problem. As per the study majorly project management process is used in IT, research and development, new product and service development, change management and software development. It has also found that CPM and PERT are some traditional methods and now modern construction and engineering projects are using different methodologies such as Agile and critical chain, etc. Therefore, conclusion has reflected that there are huge scope in the research and development of project management field.
