Executive Summary
Please delete all of the text on this page and replace it with your text before submitting your work. None of the text, citations, and references on these
pages can be copied, except for the basic template above. This is my example, which is placeholder text and instructions. Executive Summaries can be
written in different ways but take a look at this website for an example: Executive Summary. Think of your executive summary as an abstract to a research
paper, or a movie or video game trailer. It’s an introductory teaser to your project (product or service) that is being pitched to potentially interested
people/companies. It should be at least 2-3 solid paragraphs. Include at least one citation, e.g. Value Proposition citation. Following is a partial, fictitious
executive summary that is being proposed to fictitious Human Resources (HR) marketing executives at a marketing conference.
Film is an entertaining medium. It’s one that works to entertain and bring audiences together. While feature films are the mainstream media that most
follow in regard to the traditional theatrical experience, short form content is the name of the game. Television and short films have changed the way
distributors can get their products of entertainment to consumers. Direct-to-consumer is the new and improved process, and short films serve as a low-
budget and cost-effective yet lucrative and engaging medium to continue that entertainment. “Every episode of a television series, every film…is the result
of a project that produces a unique deliverable.” (Verzuh, 2021) And that deliverable is Do You Solemnly Swear?
The team behind this short film has gone through the same MFA in Film Production Masters’ Program at Full Sail University and are some of the best in
their field. Award winning and industry trained, they have created viable methods to deliver the product of this entertaining short film that will captivate
audiences by engaging them in a legal drama mystery thriller where an attorney must prep his client to take the stand while searching for what’s fiction and
what’s fact in her testimony? The protagonist, Rasandra Morales, has been charged with the murder of her wealthy-elite socialite husband. She maintains
her innocence to her defense attorney – but can she convince him she’s not guilty? Does she solemnly swear?
Within this Project Management plan, you will find all the necessary components to ultimately develop, define, design, detect what’s necessary, and
ultimately deliver an entertaining short film with impressive quality and a robust team dynamic behind it. Anyone can pick up a camera and create a film,
but true project management lending a guiding hand through the process will ensure that much more that the final film is efficient, entertaining, and
economic in its endeavor to present itself to audiences watching it on the screen. This Project Manager presents a key proposition in this film that will give
customers exactly what they want, but even more will entice supporters and investors to bring this project to fruition. Thank you for reviewing this plan, and
for giving it a chance!

“Risk management is the means by which uncertainty is systematically managed to increase the likelihood of meeting project objectives” (Verzuh, 2016).
Review this infographic as an introduction to Risk Management: https://www.inc.com/graham-rapier/managing-risk-infographic.html
Every student's project will be different, but try to use terminology from the PM industry and the specific industry that you're interested in.
None of my hyperlinks will count towards your required references and citations for all assignments. None of my verbatim example is allowed
to be copied in totality.
Fill in the Risk Management Template with brief and relevant content (maximum of 1-2 lines per row/risk). Be Concise but Precise.
Use my example as a general guide. Then delete my example.
My example and any variations of it (sickness) are not allowed to be used!
The file’s naming convention is: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYear. For example: Frederick_PTM_RiskManagement_012018
Insert your Project's Title at the top (header) of the spreadsheet template. First, click View, then select the Page Layout
Then, switch back to Normal view
Return to the Normal view
Brainstorm and conduct research about potential and/or actual risks for your specific project (current and/or future risks)
Optional: Consider the following questions while brainstorming: What can affect your project? What's the likelihood of it happening? What type of damage
can be done? How will you know that a risk is coming? How will you manage the risks?
Optional: review the PESTLE/PESTEL Analysis information for ideas on how to identify some of your project's risks
ID & Risk columns: briefly list the top 10 potential risk events and corresponding ID numbers (e.g. 1, 2, 3, etc.).
List the risks in order of their severity (most severe first).
Your list should be a mix of potential risks to your Tasks, Milestones, Stakeholders, Resources, Equipment/Materials, etc., from your week 2 WBS.
Choose 1 APA citation that supports the reason for adding any one of your Risks. One way to choose a relevant citation is to find a similar project like yours
to look for a potential citation based on: their risk management plan, their contingency plan, how they tracked a specific risk that your project might
experience, and how they mitigated or eliminated the risk.
Your citation should justify the reason (why) you included that specific risk in case a stakeholder(s) challenges your decision making or prioritizing.
That's just one of the many ways to choose a relevant and applicable citation.
Include your citation, along with the corresponding reference, into the weekly Resources Word document (Week 3) only -
because there isn't enough space to include it in the spreadsheet
Include the name of your project at the top (header) of your weekly Resources Word document.
Assigned To column: assign a teammate/stakeholder for each risk. At least 4 different stakeholders (including yourself) have to be involved in the Risk
Management Plan. Assign at least one stakeholder to one associated risk (e.g. the programmer will be responsible for the risk of bugs). Also, you can assign
the entire team to one or more risks. This person/people will be responsible for stopping, reducing, and/or monitoring that risk.
Likelihood column: select the Likelihood (Probability) for each potential risk via the dropdown menu: (High, Medium, Low).
Severity column: select the Severity (Impact) for each risk, starting with the most severe ones first: (Catastrophic, Critical, Moderate, Minor)
Review the list of severities via this link: https://www.smartsheet.com/all-risk-assessment-matrix-templates-you-need
Timeframe column: state a brief time frame that indicates when this risk will most likely occur (e.g. Development Phase).
Warning Sign column: insert one warning sign for each risk. A warning sign is the red flag trigger that informs you that the risk is coming
and/or is happening.
For example, a hurricane forecast could be a warning sign for the risk of bad weather.
Choose one 1 APA citation for one of your risk's Severity levels or for one of your listed Warning Signs.
For example, it would be sufficient to use a citation that has a similar risk severity level or warning sign like one of your risks.
That's just one of the many ways to choose a relevant and applicable citation.
Risk Management Plan-Instructions
Include your citation, along with the corresponding reference, into the weekly Resources Word document (Week 3) only -
because there isn't enough space to include it in the spreadsheet
New references and citations are required for every new weekly assignment.
The one required Verzuh reference could be used for Part I (Risk Management) or Part II (Budget)
Add your previous references from Assignments 1 and 2 to your current Resources (References & Citations) Word document
The example provided is a basic and incomplete Risk Management example for a mobile Marketing Educational/Training Game Project
A Contingency Plan is a "defined, actionable plan that is to be enacted if an identified risk becomes a reality...It’s a backup plan in place for when things go
differently than expected" (Wrike, n.d.). It contains the remedies for the risks.
Plan A column: it's everything you would do to prevent the risk from happening (Prevention)
Plan B column: it's the action you would take to lessen the impact of the risk (Reduce Impact)
Plan C column: it's how you would respond when the risk has escalated so much that you might have to stop your project (Worst-case Scenario).
Remember to insert a maximum of 1-2 lines per row/risk. Be Concise but Precise. Make sure all your text is visible
Delete all of the highlighted text and my example in the first row before submitting your work
Do not do the Track Risks & Remedies column (last column)
Before submitting your work, delete the Risk Management and Budget Instructions sheets. (Right click on the bottom Instructions tabs and select delete)
Include the name of your project at the top (header) of your weekly Resources (References and Citations) Word document.
Place your Risk Management Plan spreadsheet, your Budget PDF, your Budget mpp software file, and your updated weekly Resources Word doc into a
folder. (4 total files)
The naming convention for the folder is: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYear
For example: Frederick_PTM_RiskManagementandBudget_012018
Add the letters a,b,c,d after 012018 to differentiate the files.
Zip the folder, with the same naming convention, and submit the one zip folder into FSO
The WBS,Risk Management Plan,and the Quality Management Plan (QMP in week 4) are interconnected. For example,a basic risk might be
that your related tasks might not complete a functional Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or Milestone in time. Therefore,you'll have to avoid,
reduce,or eliminate that risk. By doing that,you'll have a better quality MVP and a better quality final deliverable (Product or Service). No tasks
are required to do below but review the generic "creating quality cake batter (MVP) to bake a premium cake" example to be better prepared for
the QMP assignment in week 4.
• A budget is a plan for allocating [distributing] resources and funds (Meredith & Mantel, 2011).
• Improper or no budgeting can be the cause of a project's failure according to the number 4 and 5 points in the infographic via this link
• As stated, every current assignment will build upon the previous assignment. Your Budget will be created with your Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) as a
framework and your Risk Management Plan as a reference point.
• You'll be able to monitor your budget and cash flow better by adding a cost to each Task and/or Resource (Labor/Work, and Equipment or Material).
• Make sure that you've updated your WBS according to my feedback because you'll add your Budget to it this week. You don't have to resubmit your WBS.
• Use my Budget screenshot examples below as a general guide to add Costs to your Tasks and Resources; generate an Estimate from your combined Costs;
and create a Budget from your combined Estimates.
• None of my hyperlinks, except for only one from the "Budget" websites below, will count towards your required references and citations
• Although you might have to do some roleplaying for this assignment (e.g. add extra Resources), feel free to do a separate more realistic budget that doesn't
include roleplaying for your personal file. Of course, that's optional and you don't have to submit it. The bottom line is that you'll get to practice creating a
budget.
• Remember that there are multiple ways to create a Budget with PP365 but make sure you follow these explicit instructions for PTM
• Take a screenshot of your work in case you're unable to save or close your file. That way, you'll have the data if the program has a glitch
(Simultaneously depress the Command, Shift and #3 keys)
• Close the program if you get an error. Then restart. Recover lost files by going to: File > Open > Open Unsaved Project (See bottom of webpage)
• Please don’t contact FSO Support or Project Plan 365 (PP365) for technical issues. PP365 is a very small company and they provide the software for free.
• First search for online help...
• ...or FAQ’s. Contact me if you can’t find a solution.
• Remember that your weekly templates are “live” documents. It isn’t required, but you can update them after PTM if necessary.
• Open your WBS Assignment 2, PP365 file. Click on File > Save As > Computer
• Rename the file with the following naming convention: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYeara.
• For example: Frederick_PTM_Budget_012018a
• Click on File > Options > Project Info > Enter your Project’s name, followed by “Budget”
• For example, here’s the name for my fictitious Mobile Marketing Game: MarketKing Budget
• In case you didn't register in week 2 -Registration license key:6BW64LFC4LCV
• Critical- Don’t delete any of the rows or columns in the provided template
Budget-Instructions
Introduction
1. Initial Set Up
Instructions
Source: Adobe Stock
• Required: Watch the Zoom archive and take notes before starting your Budget and definitely before submitting your Budget assignment!
• Remember, most likely you’ll have to roleplay if you’re doing your project alone and/or you don’t have to buy or hire much/any Resources.
For example, you would have to roleplay paying volunteers. Another reason for the roleplaying is to foster a team mindset and atmosphere.
• Once again, we'll take a simple, yet effective, approach for your project. After PTM, you can explore more of the advanced Budgeting features in PP365.
• From the Gantt Chart view: Right click on the top of the Actual Cost column's cell . Select Insert Column. Start Typing Resource Names and select it. Now,
hover over the new Resources Names column until an icon appears. Click, hold, and drag it to be the last column like the second screenshot below. Or, drag
the Actual Cost column to the left of the Resources Name column.
• From the Gantt Chart view - Starting with your first task row (not the Define Phase which is a Summary Task row), go to the Resources Names column. Click
on the right-side drop down list. Then, assign at least one Resource to each associated Task. Ask yourself: What resources are necessary to complete this
task?
• Take note of the Business Analyst Resource that's assigned to the Finalize Project Charter task below.
• Critical: Don't assign any Resources to any Summary Tasks (e.g. Define Phase in bold in the screenshot above)
• It isn't necessary to assign the same resource numerous times for different tasks especially if it's expected and it's common knowledge. (e.g. assigning a
laptop repeatedly to the tasks of research, create reports, data entry, etc.).
• Note: It's best to review all of the preliminary instructions below first, especially those about Standard (Std.) Rates and Fixed Costs below before assigning all
of your resources to Tasks now, especially since a budget is a "living and breathing" template/document that's subject to change. In addition, at least one
Fixed Cost has to be assigned to a new Task and corresponding Resource(s). Watch the GoToTraining archive asap for further explanations.
• In other words, first read up to the following red highlighted statement in the #3. Gantt Chart View Instructions section below: "After completing all of the
previous tasks, proceed with the following"…More details about this will be provided later. Remember-effective PMs are agile, adaptable, and are able to
embrace ambiguity, especially with living and breathing documents such as a budget.
• Required: Review the Estimate & Budget Infograhic via the next spreadsheet tab below
• Go to the Resource Sheet View. For this assignment, we'll only focus on the Resource Name, Type, and the Standard Rate (Std. Rate) columns in the
Resource Sheet View.
• Resource Name column: from the Resource Sheet View - you’ll have to finalize which Resources will be paid a Standard Hourly Rate (usually
Work/Labor/Human Resources) and which Resources will have a $0.00 Standard Hourly Rate (Material/Equipment Resources) because you own those
resources already. Screenshot example below. Later, you’ll determine which Resources will be one-time, Fixed Costs (e.g. buy a laptop or hire an attorney).
•
2a. Assign
Resources
To Tasks
Instructions
• Resources are generally a combination of Work/Labor, Equipment, and Material. Work basically means the same as Worker, Human, Labor, Stakeholder, or
Teammate. You, as the PM, can do double duty such as being the PM and the audio engineer.
• Treat Equipment and Material as the same Type of Resource (a thing) because there's no option to choose Equipment. Don't select Cost Type option!
•
Add the Standard (Std.) Rate column by right clicking on the top of the Base Calendar column's cell. Select Insert Column. Then, start typing the word
Standard and select the phrase Standard Rate.
• Don’t edit any other columns if they’re visible!! But, make sure the Base Calendar is set to "Standard" if it's set to another choice.
• Std. Rate column: this is where you can input the industry hourly rate (Cost) for each Work/Human Resource, including yourself as the PM
(e.g. $40 per hour). Do some research on the standard rates for your project's location. Also, you can pay your "volunteers" the minimum wage. That's one
way of "roleplaying realistically" so that you can take your project to a higher caliber level while not creating an outrageously exorbitant budget.
• The Standard Ratecolumn is mainly for Work/Human Resources unless you're going to rent Material/Equipment (generator) at an hourly rate. That's
optional. Therefore, leave the default $0.00 amount in the Std Rate column for Material/Equipment that you won't buy or rent.
•
Camera Screenshot example:
• Each Task needs to have an associated cost. All of your Work/Human Resources have to have an associated cost (Standard Rate or One-time Fixed Cost).
However, all of your Material/Equipment Resources don't need an associated cost. A minimum of 1 of your Material/Equipment Resources need an
associated One-Time Fixed Cost (e.g. buying a microphone). The reason for these points is because usually there's a cost to complete a task by a
Work/Human Resource but there might not be a cost for Material/Equipment Resources to finish that same task because it isn't needed or you have it
already.
• Make sure that you budget payment for you as a PM for the entire project. The PM / Producer is assigned to PLOMing ONLY.
• Optional - list and assign yourself as an Artist, General Worker, etc. to other SEPARATE tasks. Example below.
•
• Repeat from last week: A total of 10 mixed Resources are required. At least 4 out of 10 Resources has to be Human/Work/Labor/Stakeholder Resources.
But, a maximum of 8 Work/Human Resources are allowed. A minimum of 6 and a maximum of 8 Resources have to be Equipment and/or Material
Resources. Therefore, there'll be a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 16 total mixed Resources.
• You'll assign at least one Cost to each associated Task and/or Resource from your WBS list for a total of 20 assigned Costs. Your assigned Costs has to be
any mix of hourly rate costs and one-time fixed costs (e.g. 8 hourly rate costs plus 12 one-time fixed costs = a minimum 20 total Costs).
2b. Resource
Sheet View
Instructions
• Note: e.g. the Cost for a Task can be assigned to one Resource or multiple Resources. For example, there's a Cost for this Task: Create a Marketing Campaign.
A Work/Human Resource (Marketer) has to be assigned to that same Task and has to be paid for his/her services. It's up to you to "pay" the Marketer a one-
time flat fee (e.g. Fixed Cost of $1,000) or pay them at a Standard Hourly Rate (e.g. $40/hr.). Also, there might be a Cost for a Material/Equipment
Resource(s). The Marketer might need office supplies-the things (material/equipment) needed to complete the Task. Usually, these would be Fixed Costs.
This is where you can roleplay as realistically as possible.
• For the sake of this assignment, focus mostly on Std. Hourly Rates. It isn't required, but you can bundle all of your similar Fixed Costs (e.g. all the various
software or office supplies) and list it as one Fixed Cost. One Fixed Cost plus 19 Std. Hourly Rate Costs will fulfill the 20 minimum total Costs.
• The cost for a Work/Human Resource's effort is equal to the standard labor rate multiplied by the work/effort required (e.g. $40/hr x 40 hours = $1,600).
• Note: Examples of one-time, fixed costs are: buying a camera (Material or Equipment Resource) or hiring a Graphic Designer (Work/Human Resource) to
pay him/her a flat fee for a logo.
• To keep it simple for the first time, it's best to use Material & Equipment as one-time Fixed Costs, which we'll do later.
• If necessary, your role-playing budget amount should be $5,000+ even if you might have all the resources that you need. For example, you can plan to buy a
new and better camera even if you have one already or plan to hire a professional audio/recording engineer instead of doing your own soundtrack/sfx.
• Ask questions such as: 'How much will it most likely cost to finish this task?' How can I justify the budget to all my stakeholders?
• Use websites, such as those listed in the #6 Sources section below, to determine standard rates according to the Work/Human Resource's skills, knowledge
experience, location, etc.
• After completing the Resource Sheet View section, switch to the Gantt Chart View. The Work Hours column should have updated.
• Click on the Resources Names column. Then click on the drop down list of Resources. If necessary at this point, continue to assign or rearrange your
(Standard Rate) Resources to match the appropriate, assigned tasks.
• Required: How to create a new Fixed Cost Resource and assign a Cost to the Task: First - create a new relevant task in a new row, under any phase, like you
did in your WBS. Two generic examples are in the screenshot below. Select the Start Date. Then set the Duration. Now, go to the Resource Names cell that's
associated with that new task. Then, start typing your new associated "Fixed Cost Resource" (e.g. Hire Graphic Designer). Then, insert the one-time Fixed
Cost for that new Resource in the associated Fixed Cost cell. My example is: $300.00. It should have a 1 day Duration since it's a one-time payment.
•
• Briefly switch over to the Resource Sheet view and notice your new Resource at the bottom. Select the appropriate Type (Work or Material) and leave the
Std. Rate at $0.00. It's required to do at least one Fixed Cost.
•
• Switch back to the Gantt Chart view. To differentiate from Standard (Hourly) Rate Resources, all one-time Fixed Cost Resources have to start with a financial
verb, such as Buy, Hire, or Rent. For example: Buy Laptop.
•
Screenshot example of a new one-time, Fixed Cost Resource for $1,000 on a separate row: "Buy" Laptop (material/equipment resource):
• The screenshot above differentiates between "Buy Laptop" (the one-time, fixed cost to purchase the laptop) and "Laptop" (the resource that's already
purchased and can be used multiple times for many different tasks without additional costs).
• Use consistent words like "Hire" for Work/Human Resources. e.g. Hire Consultant. If necessary, use "Rent" for Material/Equipment resources.
E.g. Rent generator
• Monthly subscription amounts could be multiplied by the needed duration. For example, if you need software for six months and the monthly subscription
is $10, you can list it as a Fixed Cost: e.g. Buy "whatever"specific software. The one-time fixed cost would be $60.
• Add, delete, modify, or assign resources as needed. If necessary, you can add up to 5 more Tasks. That'll be a new total maximum of 25 tasks and the
associated resources.
• Optional-you can add up to 4 more Equipment and/or Material Resources this week. That’ll be a potential grand total of 20 mixed Resources. Critical: If you
do add more Resources, list All of them under the last current Resource to avoid a possible glitch
• If necessary, continue assigning at least one Resource and Cost to each associated Task for a total range of 20-25 Costs.
• Search for 2 relevant and substantial APA references and citations to justify your rationale for listing any two of your Resource's Cost but one has to be for
a Work/Human Resource and the other for a Material/Equipment Resource, preferable questionable ones. For example, one of your stakeholders might
challenge your reason for wanting to purchase the most expensive equipment or hire the most expensive stakeholder.
• Include those 1-2 sentence long citations, along with the corresponding references, into the weekly (Week 3) Resources Word document Only-
Not the software
• From the Gantt Chart view-you should only have to go to two Tables: Go to - Project > Table. Then either: Entry (to input data) or Cost (to view Cost and
export PDF Budget). See screenshot below.
• After completing all of the previous tasks, proceed with the following…
• The following instructions are for after you're finished with your budget and ready to set up the export of your PDF for submission.
•
Set Baseline before starting your project: From Gantt Chart View:Click on Project > Table > Cost >
Take note of your Total Cost > Then, set the Baseline. The Baseline can be reset later if necessary.
• Take note of your Total Cost for your project. Your Baseline Cost (Budget Cost) and Total Cost should now be the same amount. e.g.
• Optional: Baseline definition and use: https://project-management.com/the-project-baseline-a-project-management-definition/
• All of your Fixed Costs will be automatically added to your Total Cost. Actual Cost is the actual cost to-date.
3. Gantt Chart
View
Instructions
• Only the screenshot columns below should be visible and in that order. There's nothing to manually input after the Baseline Cost column for PTM
•
• Optional: You can add a Cost Contingency (Emergency Fund), based on your Risk Management Plan (especially high Severity and high likelihood Risks), to
repair and/or replace future, needed resources. Generally, it'll be 10% of your project's budget. E.g. the Cost Contingency for a $10,000 budget is $1,000.
You can add a "Get replacements or repair" task as the new last task on your WBS and as a fixed cost. Set it for a 1-day duration (The last day of your
project). Then, type in the Resource Name of: Pay Contingency Funds. The amount that is used throughout your project can be adjusted via the % Complete
column. Screenshot example below.
• Critical: Make sure that all of your text is visible and your columns and rows are formatted neatly.
• Switch to the Resource Sheet view and make sure that the Base Calendar is set to Standard!
• Red text and a yellow icon means that a resource(s) is overallocated (e.g. a Work/Human resource is scheduled to work more than 40 hours a week). Points
won't be deducted for this.
• Screenshot:
• Delete the Risk Management and Budget Instructions spreadsheets. (Right click on the bottom Instructions tabs and select delete)
• For Macs only: Make sure that you're starting here - Gantt Chart View > Project > Table > Cost.
• From the Gantt Chart View – Click on File, then Page Set Up > Select Print all sheet columns (1st option). Make sure Print First 3 columns on all pages is
preselected.
•
• Then, click on Header, then Center. Make sure your Project’s Title is in the bottom text box. Delete "WBS & Gantt Chart." Then add the word: Budget. Like
this: MarketingKing Budget. Then, click OK.
• Now, click on File, then Export to PDF. It should create a 1+ page(s) PDF. (See my #5 partial example below)
• For PC: If necessary, change PDF default settings from Edge ePDF to Adobe Acrobat (see instructions in week's 2 WBS assignment-if necessary)
• For PC only: Make sure that you're starting here - Gantt Chart View > Project > Table > Cost. Now, from the Gantt Chart View – Click on the green highlighted
File button in the upper left corner of the screen.
• Click on Print > Click on Page Setup. Click on Page. Make sure Landscape is selected for Orientation

• If necessary, adjust Fit To option to 2 pages wide by 1 page tall or 1 page wide by 2 pages tall. Click Print Preview to see which option works best
• The bottom left corner should state page 1 of 2 or 1 of 4.
• Then, click Page Setup (located at the top - header). Select Print all sheet columns (1st option) . Make sure Print First 3 columns on all pages is preselected.
Click on the Header tab, then Center.
• Add the word Budget after your Project’s Title in the bottom text box. Like this: MarketingKing Budget. Then, click OK.
• Now, click on the green highlighted File button. Click on Import/Export > Click on Export Project > Click on Export to PDF.
• For alternative format:Click on File > Page Set Up > Scaling > Select Fit To or Adjust To > Ok.
• Click on File, then Export to PDF again. Choose the best looking and legible PDF.
• Macs and PCs: Save the file with the original naming convention (see below).
•
Include the name of your project at the top (header) of your weekly Resources (References and Citations) Word document.
• Place your Risk Management Plan spreadsheet, your Budget PDF, your Budget software mpp file, and your updated weekly Resources Word doc
into a folder (4 total files)
• The naming convention for the folder is: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYear
For example: Frederick_PTM_RiskManagementandBudget_012018
• Add the letters a,b,c,d after 012018 to differentiate the files.
• Zip the folder, with the same naming convention, and submit the one zip folder into FSO. The .mpp file will not upload if it isn't in a zip file.
• Don’t send a .rar (WinZip) file! Below is a basic and incomplete Assignment PDF Example
• At least 4 total APA references are required. The main textbook (Verzuh) has to be one reference.
• Optional: you can leave the ID#s after your Task bars as-is or you can change the ID#s to your Resources. To change to Resources: Go to Format at the
header, then click on Bar Styles > Bar text > Click on the Right drop down list. Select Resource Names. Click Ok.
• 1 screenshot shows the task bar with the #2 ID# and the next screenshot is with the Resources:
This a generic, incomplete 2-page PDF example that's displayed side by side. Take note of all the required columns. This example has the list of
Resources after the task bars. You can do it like this or leave it as-is with the ID#s. One or more columns, like Remaining, might not show inthe PDF.
There's nothing to add after the Baseline Cost column for PTM. None of my content can be copied verbatim, except for the Summary Tasks (6 Phases).

• There are no required tasks to do in this section but this is helpful information to take your budget tracking to an advanced level later. It's worth
reviewing now.
• Alternate Project Cost View: Go to Project > Project Information > Statistics. This could be used as a brief status report.
• Report View: Go to Report > Cost > Budget Report > Select > Save as PDF or Print
• Later, you can monitor and compare your Baseline (planned) Cost to your Actual Costs to track and report any variances between the two amounts
• e.g. From the Entry table - the 1st screenshot below displays the Write code Task with a Duration of 30 days and a Cost of $9,600.
The second screenshot (from the Cost table) is an example of if the Programmer completed 50% of the Task. Now, the Actual Cost changed from $0 to
$4,800, which is half of the Baseline Cost ($9,600) for that Task. That's one way to track and compare your Baseline (planned) Cost to your current Actual
Costs.

•
• The next example below (starting from the Entry table) displays the first screenshot with the Marketer assigned to the Task of Researching marketing
strategies for a planned Duration of 5 days (40 hours) for a Cost of $1,600.
• The second screenshot displays an example of the Marketer missing the deadline by finishing the Task 2 days late (7 days). Now, the Cost increased from
$1,600 to $2,240. The Actual Cost increased from $0 to $2,240 after the % Complete was changed from 0% to 100% (The check mark on the left means that
the task was completed)
• The third screenshot (from the Cost table) displays the difference between the Baseline (planned) Cost ($1,600) and the current Actual Cost ($2,240).
$2,240 - $1,600 = a difference of $640 over budget.

(HQMP)
Template created by:
Lester Frederick, 2020
A. Definition of Quality: e.g. Quality consists of a process, product, and/or service that is comparable to the relevant industry's standard best/better practices (Deming); it fulfills the quality requirements (Crosby, 1979); and it's fit for
the customer's valuable use (Juran, 1950s)

C. Key Stakeholder(s): D. Foundational QM Model: E. PM Methodology:
The Quality Titles and Roles above is a partial list. Feel free to use relevant and parallel titles from
your industry. Download the Infographic PDF via this link for more Titles and Roles
Optional - include a Tolerance Range for your metrics which would be an acceptable level of quality,
such as a score of 8-10; 85%-95%; > greater than 90; 2-3 hours, etc. Also, review Media &
Entertainment metrics via this optional but insightful website and downloadable PDF.
Optional Details Below
One basic approach for generating Metrics/KPIs is to start with a Quality Requirement, which is a
broad quality need (e.g. Happy People). Then, determine what to measure, track, and compare, which
will be the Quality Metric (e.g. Customer Satisfaction - see above). Then, generate a specific type of
metric, which is a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) (e.g. Achieve or Increase Monthly Customer
Satisfaction Rate to 95%+). Metrics/KPIs are usually listed quantitatively, such as using a number,
percentage, dollar amount, etc. Or, they're listed this way: yes or no, complete or incomplete.

  • 3. Executive Summary Please delete all of the text on this page and replace it with your text before submitting your work. None of the text, citations, and references on these pages can be copied, except for the basic template above. This is my example, which is placeholder text and instructions. Executive Summaries can be written in different ways but take a look at this website for an example: Executive Summary. Think of your executive summary as an abstract to a research paper, or a movie or video game trailer. It’s an introductory teaser to your project (product or service) that is being pitched to potentially interested people/companies. It should be at least 2-3 solid paragraphs. Include at least one citation, e.g. Value Proposition citation. Following is a partial, fictitious executive summary that is being proposed to fictitious Human Resources (HR) marketing executives at a marketing conference. Film is an entertaining medium. It’s one that works to entertain and bring audiences together. While feature films are the mainstream media that most follow in regard to the traditional theatrical experience, short form content is the name of the game. Television and short films have changed the way distributors can get their products of entertainment to consumers. Direct-to-consumer is the new and improved process, and short films serve as a low- budget and cost-effective yet lucrative and engaging medium to continue that entertainment. “Every episode of a television series, every film…is the result of a project that produces a unique deliverable.” (Verzuh, 2021) And that deliverable is Do You Solemnly Swear? The team behind this short film has gone through the same MFA in Film Production Masters’ Program at Full Sail University and are some of the best in their field. Award winning and industry trained, they have created viable methods to deliver the product of this entertaining short film that will captivate audiences by engaging them in a legal drama mystery thriller where an attorney must prep his client to take the stand while searching for what’s fiction and what’s fact in her testimony? The protagonist, Rasandra Morales, has been charged with the murder of her wealthy-elite socialite husband. She maintains her innocence to her defense attorney – but can she convince him she’s not guilty? Does she solemnly swear? Within this Project Management plan, you will find all the necessary components to ultimately develop, define, design, detect what’s necessary, and ultimately deliver an entertaining short film with impressive quality and a robust team dynamic behind it. Anyone can pick up a camera and create a film, but true project management lending a guiding hand through the process will ensure that much more that the final film is efficient, entertaining, and economic in its endeavor to present itself to audiences watching it on the screen. This Project Manager presents a key proposition in this film that will give customers exactly what they want, but even more will entice supporters and investors to bring this project to fruition. Thank you for reviewing this plan, and for giving it a chance!

  • 13. “Risk management is the means by which uncertainty is systematically managed to increase the likelihood of meeting project objectives” (Verzuh, 2016). Review this infographic as an introduction to Risk Management: https://www.inc.com/graham-rapier/managing-risk-infographic.html Every student's project will be different, but try to use terminology from the PM industry and the specific industry that you're interested in. None of my hyperlinks will count towards your required references and citations for all assignments. None of my verbatim example is allowed to be copied in totality. Fill in the Risk Management Template with brief and relevant content (maximum of 1-2 lines per row/risk). Be Concise but Precise. Use my example as a general guide. Then delete my example. My example and any variations of it (sickness) are not allowed to be used! The file’s naming convention is: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYear. For example: Frederick_PTM_RiskManagement_012018 Insert your Project's Title at the top (header) of the spreadsheet template. First, click View, then select the Page Layout Then, switch back to Normal view Return to the Normal view Brainstorm and conduct research about potential and/or actual risks for your specific project (current and/or future risks) Optional: Consider the following questions while brainstorming: What can affect your project? What's the likelihood of it happening? What type of damage can be done? How will you know that a risk is coming? How will you manage the risks? Optional: review the PESTLE/PESTEL Analysis information for ideas on how to identify some of your project's risks ID & Risk columns: briefly list the top 10 potential risk events and corresponding ID numbers (e.g. 1, 2, 3, etc.). List the risks in order of their severity (most severe first). Your list should be a mix of potential risks to your Tasks, Milestones, Stakeholders, Resources, Equipment/Materials, etc., from your week 2 WBS. Choose 1 APA citation that supports the reason for adding any one of your Risks. One way to choose a relevant citation is to find a similar project like yours to look for a potential citation based on: their risk management plan, their contingency plan, how they tracked a specific risk that your project might experience, and how they mitigated or eliminated the risk. Your citation should justify the reason (why) you included that specific risk in case a stakeholder(s) challenges your decision making or prioritizing. That's just one of the many ways to choose a relevant and applicable citation. Include your citation, along with the corresponding reference, into the weekly Resources Word document (Week 3) only - because there isn't enough space to include it in the spreadsheet Include the name of your project at the top (header) of your weekly Resources Word document. Assigned To column: assign a teammate/stakeholder for each risk. At least 4 different stakeholders (including yourself) have to be involved in the Risk Management Plan. Assign at least one stakeholder to one associated risk (e.g. the programmer will be responsible for the risk of bugs). Also, you can assign the entire team to one or more risks. This person/people will be responsible for stopping, reducing, and/or monitoring that risk. Likelihood column: select the Likelihood (Probability) for each potential risk via the dropdown menu: (High, Medium, Low). Severity column: select the Severity (Impact) for each risk, starting with the most severe ones first: (Catastrophic, Critical, Moderate, Minor) Review the list of severities via this link: https://www.smartsheet.com/all-risk-assessment-matrix-templates-you-need Timeframe column: state a brief time frame that indicates when this risk will most likely occur (e.g. Development Phase). Warning Sign column: insert one warning sign for each risk. A warning sign is the red flag trigger that informs you that the risk is coming and/or is happening. For example, a hurricane forecast could be a warning sign for the risk of bad weather. Choose one 1 APA citation for one of your risk's Severity levels or for one of your listed Warning Signs. For example, it would be sufficient to use a citation that has a similar risk severity level or warning sign like one of your risks. That's just one of the many ways to choose a relevant and applicable citation. Risk Management Plan-Instructions
  • 14. Include your citation, along with the corresponding reference, into the weekly Resources Word document (Week 3) only - because there isn't enough space to include it in the spreadsheet New references and citations are required for every new weekly assignment. The one required Verzuh reference could be used for Part I (Risk Management) or Part II (Budget) Add your previous references from Assignments 1 and 2 to your current Resources (References & Citations) Word document The example provided is a basic and incomplete Risk Management example for a mobile Marketing Educational/Training Game Project A Contingency Plan is a "defined, actionable plan that is to be enacted if an identified risk becomes a reality...It’s a backup plan in place for when things go differently than expected" (Wrike, n.d.). It contains the remedies for the risks. Plan A column: it's everything you would do to prevent the risk from happening (Prevention) Plan B column: it's the action you would take to lessen the impact of the risk (Reduce Impact) Plan C column: it's how you would respond when the risk has escalated so much that you might have to stop your project (Worst-case Scenario). Remember to insert a maximum of 1-2 lines per row/risk. Be Concise but Precise. Make sure all your text is visible Delete all of the highlighted text and my example in the first row before submitting your work Do not do the Track Risks & Remedies column (last column) Before submitting your work, delete the Risk Management and Budget Instructions sheets. (Right click on the bottom Instructions tabs and select delete) Include the name of your project at the top (header) of your weekly Resources (References and Citations) Word document. Place your Risk Management Plan spreadsheet, your Budget PDF, your Budget mpp software file, and your updated weekly Resources Word doc into a folder. (4 total files) The naming convention for the folder is: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYear For example: Frederick_PTM_RiskManagementandBudget_012018 Add the letters a,b,c,d after 012018 to differentiate the files. Zip the folder, with the same naming convention, and submit the one zip folder into FSO The WBS,Risk Management Plan,and the Quality Management Plan (QMP in week 4) are interconnected. For example,a basic risk might be that your related tasks might not complete a functional Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or Milestone in time. Therefore,you'll have to avoid, reduce,or eliminate that risk. By doing that,you'll have a better quality MVP and a better quality final deliverable (Product or Service). No tasks are required to do below but review the generic "creating quality cake batter (MVP) to bake a premium cake" example to be better prepared for the QMP assignment in week 4.
  • 15.
  • 16. • A budget is a plan for allocating [distributing] resources and funds (Meredith & Mantel, 2011). • Improper or no budgeting can be the cause of a project's failure according to the number 4 and 5 points in the infographic via this link • As stated, every current assignment will build upon the previous assignment. Your Budget will be created with your Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) as a framework and your Risk Management Plan as a reference point. • You'll be able to monitor your budget and cash flow better by adding a cost to each Task and/or Resource (Labor/Work, and Equipment or Material). • Make sure that you've updated your WBS according to my feedback because you'll add your Budget to it this week. You don't have to resubmit your WBS. • Use my Budget screenshot examples below as a general guide to add Costs to your Tasks and Resources; generate an Estimate from your combined Costs; and create a Budget from your combined Estimates. • None of my hyperlinks, except for only one from the "Budget" websites below, will count towards your required references and citations • Although you might have to do some roleplaying for this assignment (e.g. add extra Resources), feel free to do a separate more realistic budget that doesn't include roleplaying for your personal file. Of course, that's optional and you don't have to submit it. The bottom line is that you'll get to practice creating a budget. • Remember that there are multiple ways to create a Budget with PP365 but make sure you follow these explicit instructions for PTM • Take a screenshot of your work in case you're unable to save or close your file. That way, you'll have the data if the program has a glitch (Simultaneously depress the Command, Shift and #3 keys) • Close the program if you get an error. Then restart. Recover lost files by going to: File > Open > Open Unsaved Project (See bottom of webpage) • Please don’t contact FSO Support or Project Plan 365 (PP365) for technical issues. PP365 is a very small company and they provide the software for free. • First search for online help... • ...or FAQ’s. Contact me if you can’t find a solution. • Remember that your weekly templates are “live” documents. It isn’t required, but you can update them after PTM if necessary. • Open your WBS Assignment 2, PP365 file. Click on File > Save As > Computer • Rename the file with the following naming convention: YourLastName_CourseCode_AssignmentName_MonthYeara. • For example: Frederick_PTM_Budget_012018a • Click on File > Options > Project Info > Enter your Project’s name, followed by “Budget” • For example, here’s the name for my fictitious Mobile Marketing Game: MarketKing Budget • In case you didn't register in week 2 -Registration license key:6BW64LFC4LCV • Critical- Don’t delete any of the rows or columns in the provided template Budget-Instructions Introduction 1. Initial Set Up Instructions Source: Adobe Stock
  • 17. • Required: Watch the Zoom archive and take notes before starting your Budget and definitely before submitting your Budget assignment! • Remember, most likely you’ll have to roleplay if you’re doing your project alone and/or you don’t have to buy or hire much/any Resources. For example, you would have to roleplay paying volunteers. Another reason for the roleplaying is to foster a team mindset and atmosphere. • Once again, we'll take a simple, yet effective, approach for your project. After PTM, you can explore more of the advanced Budgeting features in PP365. • From the Gantt Chart view: Right click on the top of the Actual Cost column's cell . Select Insert Column. Start Typing Resource Names and select it. Now, hover over the new Resources Names column until an icon appears. Click, hold, and drag it to be the last column like the second screenshot below. Or, drag the Actual Cost column to the left of the Resources Name column. • From the Gantt Chart view - Starting with your first task row (not the Define Phase which is a Summary Task row), go to the Resources Names column. Click on the right-side drop down list. Then, assign at least one Resource to each associated Task. Ask yourself: What resources are necessary to complete this task? • Take note of the Business Analyst Resource that's assigned to the Finalize Project Charter task below. • Critical: Don't assign any Resources to any Summary Tasks (e.g. Define Phase in bold in the screenshot above) • It isn't necessary to assign the same resource numerous times for different tasks especially if it's expected and it's common knowledge. (e.g. assigning a laptop repeatedly to the tasks of research, create reports, data entry, etc.). • Note: It's best to review all of the preliminary instructions below first, especially those about Standard (Std.) Rates and Fixed Costs below before assigning all of your resources to Tasks now, especially since a budget is a "living and breathing" template/document that's subject to change. In addition, at least one Fixed Cost has to be assigned to a new Task and corresponding Resource(s). Watch the GoToTraining archive asap for further explanations. • In other words, first read up to the following red highlighted statement in the #3. Gantt Chart View Instructions section below: "After completing all of the previous tasks, proceed with the following"…More details about this will be provided later. Remember-effective PMs are agile, adaptable, and are able to embrace ambiguity, especially with living and breathing documents such as a budget. • Required: Review the Estimate & Budget Infograhic via the next spreadsheet tab below • Go to the Resource Sheet View. For this assignment, we'll only focus on the Resource Name, Type, and the Standard Rate (Std. Rate) columns in the Resource Sheet View. • Resource Name column: from the Resource Sheet View - you’ll have to finalize which Resources will be paid a Standard Hourly Rate (usually Work/Labor/Human Resources) and which Resources will have a $0.00 Standard Hourly Rate (Material/Equipment Resources) because you own those resources already. Screenshot example below. Later, you’ll determine which Resources will be one-time, Fixed Costs (e.g. buy a laptop or hire an attorney). • 2a. Assign Resources To Tasks Instructions
  • 18. • Resources are generally a combination of Work/Labor, Equipment, and Material. Work basically means the same as Worker, Human, Labor, Stakeholder, or Teammate. You, as the PM, can do double duty such as being the PM and the audio engineer. • Treat Equipment and Material as the same Type of Resource (a thing) because there's no option to choose Equipment. Don't select Cost Type option! • Add the Standard (Std.) Rate column by right clicking on the top of the Base Calendar column's cell. Select Insert Column. Then, start typing the word Standard and select the phrase Standard Rate. • Don’t edit any other columns if they’re visible!! But, make sure the Base Calendar is set to "Standard" if it's set to another choice. • Std. Rate column: this is where you can input the industry hourly rate (Cost) for each Work/Human Resource, including yourself as the PM (e.g. $40 per hour). Do some research on the standard rates for your project's location. Also, you can pay your "volunteers" the minimum wage. That's one way of "roleplaying realistically" so that you can take your project to a higher caliber level while not creating an outrageously exorbitant budget. • The Standard Ratecolumn is mainly for Work/Human Resources unless you're going to rent Material/Equipment (generator) at an hourly rate. That's optional. Therefore, leave the default $0.00 amount in the Std Rate column for Material/Equipment that you won't buy or rent. • Camera Screenshot example: • Each Task needs to have an associated cost. All of your Work/Human Resources have to have an associated cost (Standard Rate or One-time Fixed Cost). However, all of your Material/Equipment Resources don't need an associated cost. A minimum of 1 of your Material/Equipment Resources need an associated One-Time Fixed Cost (e.g. buying a microphone). The reason for these points is because usually there's a cost to complete a task by a Work/Human Resource but there might not be a cost for Material/Equipment Resources to finish that same task because it isn't needed or you have it already. • Make sure that you budget payment for you as a PM for the entire project. The PM / Producer is assigned to PLOMing ONLY. • Optional - list and assign yourself as an Artist, General Worker, etc. to other SEPARATE tasks. Example below. • • Repeat from last week: A total of 10 mixed Resources are required. At least 4 out of 10 Resources has to be Human/Work/Labor/Stakeholder Resources. But, a maximum of 8 Work/Human Resources are allowed. A minimum of 6 and a maximum of 8 Resources have to be Equipment and/or Material Resources. Therefore, there'll be a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 16 total mixed Resources. • You'll assign at least one Cost to each associated Task and/or Resource from your WBS list for a total of 20 assigned Costs. Your assigned Costs has to be any mix of hourly rate costs and one-time fixed costs (e.g. 8 hourly rate costs plus 12 one-time fixed costs = a minimum 20 total Costs). 2b. Resource Sheet View Instructions
  • 19. • Note: e.g. the Cost for a Task can be assigned to one Resource or multiple Resources. For example, there's a Cost for this Task: Create a Marketing Campaign. A Work/Human Resource (Marketer) has to be assigned to that same Task and has to be paid for his/her services. It's up to you to "pay" the Marketer a one- time flat fee (e.g. Fixed Cost of $1,000) or pay them at a Standard Hourly Rate (e.g. $40/hr.). Also, there might be a Cost for a Material/Equipment Resource(s). The Marketer might need office supplies-the things (material/equipment) needed to complete the Task. Usually, these would be Fixed Costs. This is where you can roleplay as realistically as possible. • For the sake of this assignment, focus mostly on Std. Hourly Rates. It isn't required, but you can bundle all of your similar Fixed Costs (e.g. all the various software or office supplies) and list it as one Fixed Cost. One Fixed Cost plus 19 Std. Hourly Rate Costs will fulfill the 20 minimum total Costs. • The cost for a Work/Human Resource's effort is equal to the standard labor rate multiplied by the work/effort required (e.g. $40/hr x 40 hours = $1,600). • Note: Examples of one-time, fixed costs are: buying a camera (Material or Equipment Resource) or hiring a Graphic Designer (Work/Human Resource) to pay him/her a flat fee for a logo. • To keep it simple for the first time, it's best to use Material & Equipment as one-time Fixed Costs, which we'll do later. • If necessary, your role-playing budget amount should be $5,000+ even if you might have all the resources that you need. For example, you can plan to buy a new and better camera even if you have one already or plan to hire a professional audio/recording engineer instead of doing your own soundtrack/sfx. • Ask questions such as: 'How much will it most likely cost to finish this task?' How can I justify the budget to all my stakeholders? • Use websites, such as those listed in the #6 Sources section below, to determine standard rates according to the Work/Human Resource's skills, knowledge experience, location, etc. • After completing the Resource Sheet View section, switch to the Gantt Chart View. The Work Hours column should have updated. • Click on the Resources Names column. Then click on the drop down list of Resources. If necessary at this point, continue to assign or rearrange your (Standard Rate) Resources to match the appropriate, assigned tasks. • Required: How to create a new Fixed Cost Resource and assign a Cost to the Task: First - create a new relevant task in a new row, under any phase, like you did in your WBS. Two generic examples are in the screenshot below. Select the Start Date. Then set the Duration. Now, go to the Resource Names cell that's associated with that new task. Then, start typing your new associated "Fixed Cost Resource" (e.g. Hire Graphic Designer). Then, insert the one-time Fixed Cost for that new Resource in the associated Fixed Cost cell. My example is: $300.00. It should have a 1 day Duration since it's a one-time payment. • • Briefly switch over to the Resource Sheet view and notice your new Resource at the bottom. Select the appropriate Type (Work or Material) and leave the Std. Rate at $0.00. It's required to do at least one Fixed Cost. •
  • 20. • Switch back to the Gantt Chart view. To differentiate from Standard (Hourly) Rate Resources, all one-time Fixed Cost Resources have to start with a financial verb, such as Buy, Hire, or Rent. For example: Buy Laptop. • Screenshot example of a new one-time, Fixed Cost Resource for $1,000 on a separate row: "Buy" Laptop (material/equipment resource): • The screenshot above differentiates between "Buy Laptop" (the one-time, fixed cost to purchase the laptop) and "Laptop" (the resource that's already purchased and can be used multiple times for many different tasks without additional costs). • Use consistent words like "Hire" for Work/Human Resources. e.g. Hire Consultant. If necessary, use "Rent" for Material/Equipment resources. E.g. Rent generator • Monthly subscription amounts could be multiplied by the needed duration. For example, if you need software for six months and the monthly subscription is $10, you can list it as a Fixed Cost: e.g. Buy "whatever"specific software. The one-time fixed cost would be $60. • Add, delete, modify, or assign resources as needed. If necessary, you can add up to 5 more Tasks. That'll be a new total maximum of 25 tasks and the associated resources. • Optional-you can add up to 4 more Equipment and/or Material Resources this week. That’ll be a potential grand total of 20 mixed Resources. Critical: If you do add more Resources, list All of them under the last current Resource to avoid a possible glitch • If necessary, continue assigning at least one Resource and Cost to each associated Task for a total range of 20-25 Costs. • Search for 2 relevant and substantial APA references and citations to justify your rationale for listing any two of your Resource's Cost but one has to be for a Work/Human Resource and the other for a Material/Equipment Resource, preferable questionable ones. For example, one of your stakeholders might challenge your reason for wanting to purchase the most expensive equipment or hire the most expensive stakeholder. • Include those 1-2 sentence long citations, along with the corresponding references, into the weekly (Week 3) Resources Word document Only- Not the software • From the Gantt Chart view-you should only have to go to two Tables: Go to - Project > Table. Then either: Entry (to input data) or Cost (to view Cost and export PDF Budget). See screenshot below. • After completing all of the previous tasks, proceed with the following… • The following instructions are for after you're finished with your budget and ready to set up the export of your PDF for submission. • Set Baseline before starting your project: From Gantt Chart View:Click on Project > Table > Cost > Take note of your Total Cost > Then, set the Baseline. The Baseline can be reset later if necessary. • Take note of your Total Cost for your project. Your Baseline Cost (Budget Cost) and Total Cost should now be the same amount. e.g. • Optional: Baseline definition and use: https://project-management.com/the-project-baseline-a-project-management-definition/ • All of your Fixed Costs will be automatically added to your Total Cost. Actual Cost is the actual cost to-date. 3. Gantt Chart View Instructions
  • 21. • Only the screenshot columns below should be visible and in that order. There's nothing to manually input after the Baseline Cost column for PTM • • Optional: You can add a Cost Contingency (Emergency Fund), based on your Risk Management Plan (especially high Severity and high likelihood Risks), to repair and/or replace future, needed resources. Generally, it'll be 10% of your project's budget. E.g. the Cost Contingency for a $10,000 budget is $1,000. You can add a "Get replacements or repair" task as the new last task on your WBS and as a fixed cost. Set it for a 1-day duration (The last day of your project). Then, type in the Resource Name of: Pay Contingency Funds. The amount that is used throughout your project can be adjusted via the % Complete column. Screenshot example below. • Critical: Make sure that all of your text is visible and your columns and rows are formatted neatly. • Switch to the Resource Sheet view and make sure that the Base Calendar is set to Standard! • Red text and a yellow icon means that a resource(s) is overallocated (e.g. a Work/Human resource is scheduled to work more than 40 hours a week). Points won't be deducted for this. • Screenshot: • Delete the Risk Management and Budget Instructions spreadsheets. (Right click on the bottom Instructions tabs and select delete) • For Macs only: Make sure that you're starting here - Gantt Chart View > Project > Table > Cost. • From the Gantt Chart View – Click on File, then Page Set Up > Select Print all sheet columns (1st option).

The second screenshot (from the Cost table) is an example of if the Programmer completed 50% of the Task. Now, the Actual Cost changed from $0 to $4,800, which is half of the Baseline Cost ($9,600) for that Task. That's one way to track and compare your Baseline (planned) Cost to your current Actual Costs. 5. Incomplete Assignment- PDF Examples 6. Sources
  • 24. • • The next example below (starting from the Entry table) displays the first screenshot with the Marketer assigned to the Task of Researching marketing strategies for a planned Duration of 5 days (40 hours) for a Cost of $1,600. • The second screenshot displays an example of the Marketer missing the deadline by finishing the Task 2 days late (7 days). Now, the Cost increased from $1,600 to $2,240. The Actual Cost increased from $0 to $2,240 after the % Complete was changed from 0% to 100% (The check mark on the left means that the task was completed) • The third screenshot (from the Cost table) displays the difference between the Baseline (planned) Cost ($1,600) and the current Actual Cost ($2,240). $2,240 - $1,600 = a difference of $640 over budget. • Optional Templates, Tools & Techniques to calculate ROI.
