AM804001 The Roles and Importance of Project Management

This assignment builds on the project charter. The project management plan is the core of the project. It is the integrated framework which includes the management plans from all of the project management knowledge areas. It ties these management plans together into a collective whole which is then used to manage the project through to completion.

The project plan is a detailed document and as such your assessment should provide enough detailed planning to complete the proposed project, it will also provide some academic grounding.

As an individual, you will produce a project management plan, from one of the scenarios given in assessment 1. You may either build on your existing charter, or choose to develop a different project scenario from the same list as follows:

The addition of a garden and BBQ area on the roof of the OPAIC building for staff and summer functions, including the ability to serve beverages and accommodate crowds of up to 80. The area needs to accommodate ‘green building’ principles and take no longer than 6 months to completion.
A new website for the OPAIC Industry Internship Students, including pages to guide students on course material, CV build, interview techniques, how to complete their internship project, potential intern search of both candidates and organisations and advertising from potential internship companies, and a messaging system with appropriate security for each level of user.
A 2-day OPAIC event including workshops and information sessions bringing together potential industry interns with prospective companies, including internship options, graduates speaking about their internships, food and key industry speakers from internship companies, to be held in the Aotea centre. Followed by an after dark networking session on the first day.
Renovating the 8^th floor of OPAIC into a full library space that incorporates modern ways to study, including collaborative work spaces, informal seating, technology, and self-checkout capabilities for course text.

N.B. Whilst this plan builds on the charter document, there is an expectation that no more than 10% of the charter will be copied across to the plan, and where this occurs you will reference your charter. More of the charter document copied through will occur plagiarism penalties as described in the course outline.

Answer:

This report depicts the roles and importance of project management mechanism in industrial manufacturing. Effective and structured project management can reduce the risks assure the quality of a project by ensuring the completion of project within estimated budget and time. The rate of errors can be prevented and at the same time the project budget can be controlled with regulatory and voluntary regulations. For this specific report the nominated project is “The Addition of a Garden and BBQ Area on the Roof of the OPAIC Building”. It is the role of the project manager and other project team members to complete the project within 6 months and estimated budget of $75,000.

In order to accomplish the project successfully measureable components those are to be calculated and considered include project management approach, scope measuring the milestones and management strategies. In addition to this, change management plan, communication management, risk management and project approval requirements are to the other factors that should be outlines at the project initiation phase. A cost baseline, quality baseline, procurement management plan and project schedule are developed by the project team members. The final project charter should be approved by the sponsor and the project manager.

2. Project management approach

Project management tools and techniques will be considered by the project manager to design the work package with duration and cost details. For reducing the workload from the project team members, skilled and experienced project resources will be nominated and allotted for specific project activities. The aim of the project is to build an additional garden and BBQ area on the roof top of the OPAIC building mainly for the summer functions arranged for the staffs of the company. The functions will be arranged in the BBQ areas should serve beverages and must have ability to offer accommodations for 80 staffs.

In order to reduce trash, pollution and environmental degradation the principle of Green building for protecting the health of the occupants are being used by the project manager. It will improve the overall productivity of the project with environmental, economical and social profit. The operating cost for the BBQ area will be diminished, the strain on the local infrastructure will be reduced. The quality of surrounding air and water will be improved accordingly. With the effective consumption of energy from biodiversity the ecosystem will be protected.

3. Project scope including milestones and management plan

The scope for this specific project is to develop additional garden area for the staffs associated to the OPAIC Company. This additional garden area will build at the roof top of the company if any functions are being arranged by the company itself. The designer should keep in mind that the accommodation for the functions will be arranged for around 80 staffs. The designer will consider the concept and principle of Green Building while developing the building. It is expected that for the successful accomplishment of the project will not take longer than 6 months. Maximum rate of success can be obtained from the green building with new technologies. It will create such a green structure that will be beneficial for the economical and social success of the company. The green construction can integrate the economical and social factors all together.

For this specific project on “Addition of garden and BBQ area in the roof top of OPAIC Company” mainly arranged for the summer functions and staff programs the fie main phases those will be considered include project initiation, project planning, development, monitoring and control and project closure. It is necessary for the project manager to follow all these phases accordingly so that within 6 months the project can be successfully accomplished. The milestones and planning details are elaborated in this report below:

Milestone 1: Completion of project initiation phase	Tue 8/21/18	Tue 8/21/18	25	business analyst
Milestone 2: Completion of project planning phase	Mon 12/17/18	Mon 12/17/18	66	sponsors
Milestone 3: Completion of project development phase	Fri 3/1/19	Fri 3/1/19	80	HR manager

Milestone 5: Completion of project closure phase	Fri 3/29/19	Fri 3/29/19	106	operation manager

4. Schedule baseline and work break down structure (WBS)

Schedule baseline is referred to as an approved version of schedule model which can be changed accordingly with the changed taking place in the control process of the project. It is also used to make comparison between the planned and actual cost and schedule results. It is possible for any project that it contains contingency reservations which causes time buffer and cost buffer as well. In order to avoid this kind of schedule uncertainty proper schedule baseline and work break down structure is needed to be prepared by the project manager and project team members as well.

If the project scope and assumption changes then respectively the schedule baseline will also change. The duration of different activities must be set based on its complexity. For successful accomplishment of the BBQ garden area project documents such as schedule performance measures, start dates, finish dates, additional works and omitted works all are to be defined with professional perfection. If new works are added by the project head then the changes will also be reflected on the schedule baseline. The components those will be considered for this specific project are as follows:

Baseline: Usually at the initiation point of the BBQ garden area project the project baseline will be set to avoid further financial errors.

Cost and scope baseline: In order to obtain maximum satisfactory result for the consumers the project management includes different responsibilities for the project manager and the team members as well.

Performance maintenance baseline: In regards of the project management area proper determination of the project resources, cost and time are very much necessary to prevent unwanted activities or project actions.

Baseline finish date: The baseline finish dates are activated on those dates only on which that particular activity is expected to be completed on successfully.

In order to reduce the workload from the project team members and to make the project less complex this large BBQ garden area development project should be divided into small sub-activities. For each of those activities different skillful and experienced human resources will be allocated and it will be their responsibilities to complete that specific activity on that specified time period without any error. The Work Breakdown Structure requires active participation from the project team members and is comprise of three basic steps:

Proper identification of the specific project deliverables
Segmentation of these activities into proper sub project activities
Determining proper match between the project resources and their work packages
