¶ … Project Management
The project parameters involved in overhauling a luxury tour bus, like any complex project, are bound by the limitations of scope, schedule, and cost. Also known as the triple constraint, a project's size, deadline for completion, and budgetary boundaries work in tandem so that a project manager cannot make alterations to one without necessarily affecting the others. Because controlling a project's scope is integral to effectively managing the other aspects of the triple constraint, many project managers prefer to develop a detailed Statement of Work (SOW) to clearly define every task necessary for project completion (Schwalbe, 2011). The following report details the impact of these limiting factors on the current luxury tour bus renovation project by examining each element of the triple constraint individually, while an SOW has been provided to describe the processes...
This amount includes the original $8,000 project budget estimate, and an additional $2,000 contingency sum intended to cover any unexpected expenses.
Schedule and Statement of Work (SOW): The 30-day project will begin on the 1st of April with an appraisal of the tour bus in its current condition, as team members identify all salvageable materials that can be preserved for future use. On April 3rd, the demolition process will commence, with team members removing old seats, windows, and other debris from the buses' interior. This process is scheduled to take two (2) days, and once the interior has been gutted the renovation process will commence. On April 7th a delivery of 30 new seats,…

Project Management, Sustainability and Whole Lifecycle Thinking ITT Project Management - Sustainability and Whole Lifecycle Thinking Although the sustainability movement has been advocated predominately in response to the irresponsible expansion of inefficient infrastructure by industrialized nations, with the United States and Japan now making significant efforts to embrace "green" growth practices, a growing movement has emerged that promoting sustainability throughout developing nations presents the most productive path. Even as the most modernized
Project Management Supporting Activity Project Characteristics • What are some of the characteristics that differentiate projects from other functions carried out in the daily operations of an organization? List some examples of work considered to be a project and work not considered to be a project. The main trait and attribute that differentiates projects and non-projects is the duration of the event in question. Events that are ongoing in perpetuity are not projects.
Project Management Plan of a New Restaurant This project management plan is majorly concerned primarily with the first two steps which are defining the project; the project objective is broken down into a series of manageable steps called tasks and designing the project process; this work is performed by the project manager and is presented in the GANTT chart where the tasks are displayed in more detail (Hamilton, 2004). Besides, for
Research Objectives and Scope The main objective of the research then relates closely to the research problem. It is to research the problem of uncertainty as it manifests in the global business environment. Specific issues to be investigated include supply chain management and its related uncertainties, the production process itself and uncertainties related to it, as well as the post-production phase and market uncertainties that are related to it. Time is also
