...Project Revisions When a project begins there may be revisions on how the structure and management of the project. Because this project is planning and executing a wedding, the project is bound to various factors. The factors can change the successful execution of the wedding and completion in various ways. One factor is the weather, which is an outdoor wedding’s most unpredictable factor. The wedding may face rain, extreme wind, and other weather conditions. Poor weather conditions will make the wedding difficult to manage because the location is outdoors. The next factor is the delay of vendors delivering supplies on time, causing the project schedule to change. A revision could be the lack of money, and this comes with the change in the time frame of orders, especially if there is a need for a new vendor. The less notice a vendor has to complete an order, the more expensive the supplies become, leaving less money for other expenses. Another factor that could affect the timeline of the project is if the client decides to postpone or cancel the event. The last factor is the lack of clear communication. One person may be thinking to complete a task should one way that may have been incorrect, and he or she may have to re-do their task as a result of his or her misunderstanding.

...Achieving Project Goals Simulation Maria Algarin University of Phoenix MGT 437 Project Management Simulation It is important for project managers to not only make the best project plans, but to be also suitably prepared to tackle contingencies and minimize their impact on the project (Achieving Project Goals Simulation, 20011). In my opinion, there is a misconception as to the role of a project manager. The main challenge is to ultimately achieve the defined goals for the project. Another challenge is maximize the integration of inputs to meet the objectives. Realistically it is important to understand all the processed that relate to the project. Once these items are identified the actual management of the project becomes apparent. My perspective of project management was limited to the construction industry. The simulation changed my perception because I realized that project management is even required in the most unconventional situations. For example, the simulation consisted of preparing a plan to move eight elephants to centralized location. The assignment called for proper planning and logistics to ensure that the cargo arrived safely. Throughout the trip there were unforeseen circumstances and in some cases the animals were at risks. My overall perception is that the project manager is very important. A successful Project Manager must simultaneously manage the four basic elements of a project: resources, time, money, and most importantly, scope (Reh, 2009)...

...10 things you should know about managing IT projects. IT projects can be daunting, especially to the novice. It’s relatively easy to propose a solution, but much more diffi cult to implement the desired performance levels on time for the right price. This list will help IT pros bring organization, professionalism, and goal-oriented progress to the projects they manage. 1. Get professional IT projects historically have a negative reputation for being over budget, late, and poorly implemented. Having a professional individual in charge of the project can add great organization and credibility to your efforts. If your project is of a size where a project manager role can be used, go for it. Working with a Project Management Institute (PMP)-certifi ed individual (www.pmi.org/) will greatly enhance the effectiveness of your software projects. The PMP is also a good benchmark across all project management disciplines and is a big credibility booster when a project integrates with non-IT individuals, external customers, business partners, or part of a larger project. 2. Identify the leadership roles Having individuals responsible for specifics metrics of the project is important. This should be done in a way that puts capable individuals in roles that are best suited for their talents but that doesn’t overwhelm individual team members. IT projects often put too much emphasis on the technical contributions of a small number of individuals—or even just one person—and ...

...UNIVERSITY, IGBESA, OGUN STATE PGD ACCOUNTING ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF INVESTMENT “A SYSTEM FOR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IN THE CONCEPTUAL PHASE” BY ADENUGA OLUFEMI SOLOMON MATRIC NO: PG14/05/005 JUNE 2015 ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF INVESTMEST “A SYSTEM FOR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IN THE CONCEPUTAL PHASE” ABSTRACT The conceptual phase of capital projects is of strategic importance – an economic evaluation at this early stage is critical to the owners’ decision-making with limited information. The current study developed a comprehensive but practical system that can be used in such an early phase for economic evaluation of capital building construction projects. The system integrates four analytical steps: (i) Project planning, (ii) Construction costs estimation, (iii) Projection of incomes and expenditures and; (iv) Economic evaluation. Due to the integration, the system effectively manages the information flow from the planning to the evaluation, in which any changes from the initial plan are fully accounted for multiple alternates. In the system, users predict construction cost using a combined estimating method with historical project data and assembly costs. The system performs the tabulation of all incomes and expenditures based on the automated calculation as well as users’ inputs and then the economic evaluation based on project cash flow, which is generated using an automated scheduling method. System performance has been tested in terms of...

The content of project approach are Measured Options also known as (Options Considered), chosen options, Objectives and Practically HRIS is a system used by human resources departments to track employees and information about them. A HRIS is often a database system or a series of inter-related databases. Toolwire’s proud to inform you that our software application will combines many human resources functions, incorporating benefits administration, payroll, recruiting and training, and performance analysis and review into one package. Any organization that needs to keep track of a larger number of employees than they can handle with paper records or spreadsheets may be in need of a human resource information system software application. I typically say that companies with greater than fifty active employees, probably needs to at least start looking into what is available within the HR software market.

...IS 390 Group Project Milestone Two Due: Oct. 29th In this milestone, you are to deliver a document called BRD (Business Requirement Document). Although difference formats exist for BRD, the one you are required to present is popularly used in current IS practice. It serves as a “contract” between you and your client on the scope, schedule & expected outcome of your project. A BRD contains seven sections. I. Version Control Since a BRD might go through several rounds of revision (iterative process, remember?), this first section is simply used to keep track of the project history. A. Revision history: Simply a table with the following columns: Version# (0.1, 0.2…), Date of revision, Responsibility (Author), Description. I assume that you will have only one version given the short time available, which is fine. B. RACI chart RACI chart is used in organizational design to make assignments and designate levels of involvement and responsibility. In a system project, it lists the roles played by each of the team members during each developmental stage. To develop a RACI chart, first identify tasks involved in this stage. Your tasks should include at least the following: 1. Correspondence with the client: meeting setup and follow-up. 2. Preparation for the interview: design of interview questions and flow 3.
