3. Critical Path Schedule (scheduling project objectives for current week and future weeks, please include end goals)

The priorities for next week are going to be to start the improvement of the solar panel array design and to define the full scale test track parameters.

4. Budget (look into Value-in-Kind – aka Sponsorships … and cash budget with Bill of Materials)

For now, the team is working only with designs, so there is no equipment needed. However, it would be helpful to have some snacks at the facility, as well as a better Internet connection.
