Assessment details

Brief

Project planning is one of the most important skills for project managers. As project managers, you will be asked to plan your project, execute it according to the plan, and monitor its progress during the implementation phase. In this assessment task, you will be asked to come up with a project of your own.

This project can be chosen from any industry in which you have an interest. The project should at least consist of 20 to 30 activities. Then you apply different planning techniques on this project. This project is part of your learning process in applying the planning techniques. Therefore, you are not allowed to use planning or scheduling software such as MS Project. The task is undertaken and delivered in two stages. (Stage One was completed in Assessment 1.)

Stage Two

Your final report should be a complete project plan including the report delivered in the Stage One. This report also needs to demonstrate the result of the applications of following concepts and techniques on your project:

• Project network
• Bar chart
• Critical path method
• PERT
• Cash flow management

These resources would provide extra help for you to undertake stage one.

Note:

In both stages your report needs to be professionally prepared and include following sections:

• Title page
• Executive summary
• Introduction
