Development and implementation plan for a 500-acre water park facility

Building a Water Park

Statement of Work Project- Project Description and Project Product

The project will be to develop a water park. It is both an indoor and outdoor facility. The basic idea is to offer consumers with an assortment of rides throughout the year. We intend to do this, by purchasing a 500 acre property and developing two parts of it. The basic idea is to have enough room to address the current needs and expand in the future. The steps that will be taken include: buying the land, constructing the park, building a following of customers and continuously expanding to meet their needs. The final product will have a heated indoor wave pool. It offers over 30 different slides everyone can enjoy. In the summer, this will be connected with the outdoor pools and slides. (Mill, 2007)

Project Deliverables

The tangible outputs are the access to the rides, the food / beverages, special events and souvenirs. These items will be sold throughout the process of marketing the park. This will encourage someone to visit and enhance their experiences by offering cliental with reasonable prices when they arrive. These two factors and the assortment of rides will help them to feel like they are receiving greater value. (Mill, 2007)

Project Assumptions

These assumptions are based upon the fact that commodities prices and labor costs remain low. If there is a change or shortage, this could create delays and cost overruns. At the same time, straight line projects are used to determine the monthly expenses for running the facility. Over the course of time, these figures will become inaccurate. (Mill, 2007)

Project Constraints

The factors which will have an effect on the project include: labor / wholesale costs, the availability of land, zoning regulations and support from the community. These variables will determine if it can remain on schedule and within budget. (Mill, 2007)

Exclusions

The boundaries of the project are limited to the size, the timetable and availability of materials. The different areas that are included are: commodities prices, labor costs, customer demand, regulations and the state of the economy. Those that were excluded are: management policies / procedures and the day to operation of the facility. (Mill, 2007)

Acceptance Criteria

The product must provide customers with a good experience. This means that prices should remain low and they need to receive superior products / services. The basic standards are the local and state regulations for food safety, safety, operations, labor laws and fire / water hazards. To be acceptable to the customer, the product must meet performance standards for safety, quality and price. (Mill, 2007)

Technical Requirements

The water park will be the main draw. When someone arrives, they will have the ability to go to specific areas which are embracing certain themes. In these areas, are a number of concession stands for everyone to utilize. At the same time, a separate building will be created with a retractable roof. This is where concerts, shows, parties and conventions can take place with free access to the other parts of the park. (Mill, 2007)
