Amp’s Gym Building Process
Amp gym in week two used a time phased budget to help the project manager understand
costs and cash flow for the project’s time line. The new gym that will replace the old gym is
located a block away. The old gym was costing Dr.T more money than he was was making each
month. The new changes will look to increase Dr.T’s revenue from prior years of memberships
that were cancelled at the old gym. The project revenue that is left over after paying all
employee wages, contractors, materials, and equipment is a total of $243,886 dollars in revenue
from the agreement of $1,000,000 dollars between the sponsor and project manager. The team
will use a risk management plan, including an assessment chart of risk impact, to identify the
highest risk threats and the impact they possess if they are not attended to by the project team.
Communication plans will be enforced for keeping all forms of communication in the project
between the sponsor and project team. Human resources will need a new action plan for new
employees to progress and meet the customer needs in the new gym policy guidelines. Human
resources will conduct an analysis of all training methods and consider which one would be the
most efficient for the gym. Bi-weekly meetings will be held with the team to review all status
and issue reports looking to make sure all deliverables are being met in the timeframe of the
work breakdown schedule. The project will offer a procurement plan and outline of what
companies are the best in quality to buy from and where the purchases and agreements will take
place.

Project Risk Management Plan
Project managers must consider what techniques will work the most concise in a risk
evaluation of new product (Gidel, Gautier, & Duchamp, 2005). Risk Assessment charts will help
the project to prioritize the risks in the project. The project team will list the highest risks to the
lowest risks and confirm which risk could be a threat for the project to keep on schedule. The
project manager and contractor will discuss all areas of the project including all permits, licenses,
workforce, and catastrophe setbacks that could delay the project of unknown costs. The project
manager will consult an outside source that works in the construction field management to
measure if the prices and labor are adequate for the project. According to (Al-Humaidi, 2007) the
reason for delays consist of procedural delays, which can be ineffective if hidden, can cause
enabling and triggering causes for the project management. The project manager’s responsibility
will be to avoid managerial, financial, and legal issues that may affect the project if the project
manager does not utilize the proper actions to minimize the delay occurrences (Al-Humaidi,
2007). The table below is to identify risks and how they impact the project overall outcome.

Project Human Resource Plan
According to (Atoniu, 2010) human resource plan is an important part of career planning
for the company, which will involve a process of responsibility from the individuals and the
organization which begins a week prior to the project finish date. The resource plan is the
process of understanding the new outlook plan of human resources, and the development stages
6. 6
of the new gym facility. New improvements of the plan are to satisfy the employees who work
for the company (Atoniu, 2010). Human resources will use the career planning method that will
include self-assessment, reality checks, setting goals, and planning activities (Atoniu, 2010). The
human resource plan will be to use the skills and strengths to help the employee set goals and
define what areas the person would be most effective in the gym to use their skills. An example
would be someone who has knowledge of computers with an excellent attitude would work
efficiently at the office of the gym. Team members’ reward will be a week off of work with pay
for the effective and hard work that was accomplished. Intranet training will be installed on the
office computers to help the employees with new training and any areas of the gym to keep the
employee working effective daily. According to (Marsh & Brazeau, 2016) it will be crucial for
human resources to put employees in the right place of the job for them to perform the most
exceptionally. Policies play a major role in getting the efforts of the team to follow the new
human resource plan from the start of the company opening day and each day of the week
(Marsh & Brazeau, 2016).

Communication is essential in a project for the team and sponsor to keep the team
efficient to work on each segment of the project with little or no change. If there is a problem
with the contractors or workers, the project manager must have a plan of action to avoid project
failure. The communication plan helps each member of the project team understand all
responsibilities through meetings, presentations, emails, and memos.
Procurement Plan
The project team will use a procurement plan in negotiation of new equipment for the
gym. Procurement planning is important to involve the sponsor and agree on all financial
decisions before purchases are made for the gym. The plan will consist of looking at package
deals for the gym to meet all customers’ expectations in training. The project manager will have
human resources find the equipment from proposals and price quotes (Mochal, 2007). The
project manager will go through a list of companies that will offer the low prices who are
qualified to cover the equipment with a life time warranty (Mochal, 2007). Two main points of
8. 8
availability and cost will be what the project teams looks to for the best result to build the
project. The same method of the procurement plan will be used for buying all the material to
build the gym including all building material, matting for the floors, plumbing, doors, locks,
windows, roofing, ac units, computers, and office equipment. The project manager will consider
each vendor and who responds with the lowest prices and will be able to meet the deadline dates
to deliver the products. The project team is looking to make purchases at a wholesale price when
they buy in quantity from the vendors and gym equipment warehouses. Vendors and gym
equipment warehouses can sell items at the lowest prices to the project team and still make profit
because of the large amount of volume sold in one sale. The project manager will take the list of
all the vendors and make the most efficient decision for the projects needs to complete the job.
Conclusion
The project manager has made some changes in the aspects of the project to fulfill the
stakeholder’s agreement. There is still much that the project manager and team will need to
accomplish to finalize the project and avoid risks and issues that could arise. The project team
will take the new changes and add them into a revised scope that will include a new co sponsor
in ensuring the stakeholder is satisfied with all aspects of the project. Each area of the project
must be monitored and adjusted to meet all criteria of the requirements in the project. The risk
assessment matrix, communication plan, human resource plan, and the procurement plan will
help with defining the new changes and action plans. All the changes have concise answers to
meet goals and keep the project away from dilemmas that could hold it the project back from the
finish date. The procurement plan will help the project manager in all buying and financial
9. 9
priorities to accomplish the goals in the project using the most faithful vendors who offer the best
price for the gym.
Leadership and Management
Leadership and management each play a role in team building and are essential to be a
project manager. This report will analyze both leadership management styles, focusing on their
abilities to virtual and traditional teams. Leadership helps the team understand “where and when”
to achieve goals set in a project. Management uses “how” directions to help the team with an
exceptional understanding of what each person’s responsibilities are in a team. For years, both
leadership and administration have helped in the contribution of achieving goals, but which one
is more efficient in team building or are they both the same?
Leadership vs. Management Styles in Team Support
The understanding necessary to build a company requires team knowledge to reach the
business goals; this is why most managers are not leaders, and why leaders cannot reach the
highest pinnacles of leadership (LIopis, 2012). Coaching Leadership helps team members
develop a concise understanding using questions to probe and mentor the team members to
access his or her understanding, thus giving new outlooks for the team member. According to
(Shenhar, 2004) Strategic project leadership provides a practical, step-by-step approach and
guidelines to organizations and managers on how to turn their projects into successful
competitive weapons. Managers’ responsibility includes brainstorming opposing ideas to find a
proper solution that will help the team work and have a full understanding of what needs to be
accomplished. Managers have a different responsibility than leader that includes using focus and
consistency in a team environment. Leadership and management must all these requirements in a
global world of business.
10. 10
Training Approaches and Team Building Strategies
Building a team takes a method of training approaches to teach the team members
strategies and what approaches the project manager will use in a project. According to (Hass,
2010.) when you enlist team members, do so not only based on their knowledge and skills, but
also because they are passionate, strategic thinkers who thrive in a challenging, collaborative
environment. Team building consists of hard work between both the project manger and the
team. Team strategies work well when they have guidelines to follow and a plan of action ever
day of the project. Team strategies must consist of communication for every team member to
learn before starting the project. According to (Finch, 2007) not only is communication of the
project goal vital, but frequent updates of the take is important. The project manager must use
building strategies in the project to help with each team member feeling important and a part of
the project.
Outsourcing with Virtual Team Members
Outsourcing benefits with the virtual team use technology across the globe to help
companies that are looking to reduce employees, but who are capable of being geographical in
work relations. Virtual teams needs guidance to be effective this will include an investment in
the project manager to develop and achieve virtual teams that can successfully excel in each
project (Norman, 2015). Outsourcing with virtual teams must establish a trust bond relationship
of each member for the success in the project to work each day. The impact of outsourcing can
bring a project to a failing point or become very successful if the trust and bond is elaborated in
the beginning of the business relationship (Norman, 2015).
11. 11
Human Resource Approach
The human resource approach must be consistent in hiring the proper team during
seasonal times the companies will invest in outsourcing to save monetary overhead. In many
projects, there are always problems that will arise but human resource’s approach must be able to
find the right solution in every matter of issues to help the project manager finish the project on
schedule. According to (Sangal, 2016) lifecycle patterns and nature of uncertainty with projects
make the management of human resources very challenging, from the planning to closeout.
Procurement Contracts, Organizational Currencies, Management Trait, and Team Pitfalls
Procurement contracts will depend on the project manager understanding which contract
will meet the need of the project that he or she is working on to date. The project manager will
meet with the new co-sponsor to over all the objectives of the project and see what they can
agree on before meeting with the sponsor Dr.T. If the project manager decides to use fixed price
contract, this would help keep the project manger’s risk register down but the budget would be
affected because the seller would want a price reduction (Harrin, 2014). There many contracts
for the project manager to look at before working on a project. The projects needs might consist
of a cost reimbursable contract in which the vendor would be paid for the actual work performed
(Harrin, 2014). Project managers must invest in organizational currencies within a project
learning all the team and each team member’s personality. The project manager must be able to
reach and inspire the team to meet all the projects objectives. According to (Makar, 2011) project
managers need to spend time to earn organizational currency with the co-workers. The project
manager who inspires the team will give confidence to the team to overcome and produce work
on schedule. Management trait is an important role for a project manger because the project
12. 12
manager must be able to find what trait will work to lead a team. The project manager must
consider the optimist trait of having a right attitude to accomplish goals and build morale in the
team. The project manager who carries high emotional intelligence can be constructive in the
project and assist the team to finalize the goal for the finished product. Team pitfalls occur in
many ways in a project and can cause a project to fail. The project manager’s scope statement
should be discussed with the co-sponsor and sponsor to align all measures of what the sponsors
want when the product is finished. The project manager must be able to meet the deadlines that
were discussed in the beginning process of the project. According to (Miller, 2016) one of the
biggest factors, which give teams nightmares, is expecting them to meet unrealistic targets and
deadlines. Stakeholder management plan is the most efficient for projects to use and accomplish
goals. The stakeholder management plan will identify all the strategies of the scheme will
support the interested parties with less resistance. The stakeholders’ analysis is an effective
understanding of stakeholder likes and dislikes and what it will take to continue to build
relationships and meet all goals of the project.
Conclusion
The analyze report shows that it takes both leadership and management to have a
successful project. Projects can be properly guided by using the right tools and guidelines in each
department to have full results that will make the stakeholders and sponsors pleased of their
investment. Each area of the project must be considered with the new co-sponsor and sponsor to
keep all communication if something in the project needs a change or cost the project manager
did not add to the budget. The project manager must use all the tools and techniques
understanding each one and how they should be applied to the project for a successful turnout.
Changes of Project Scope, timeline, budget
13. 13
The project manager Dale Newton will go to the Co-Sponsor and Sponsor Dr.T to
consider the methods in which a project scope change are to be managed. This process started in
the beginning of the planning phase where the agreement of the plan took place. The project
manager uses the communication plan to keep in touch with both the Co-sponsor and Sponsor of
all measures of the project, and discusses which areas the sponsors want the project to be refined
and adjustments made. Development of the communication plan helps the project manager and
stakeholders stay successful with meetings, this allows the project manager to have a sharp
vision of where the project needs to go if changes were of need during the project (Mauk, 2011).
In a project, the timeline would change if there were a delay in one of the tasks where the team
fell behind in meeting the work breakdown schedule. The timeline is reported to the stakeholder
and sponsors to keep them informed by emails, meetings, and conferences of all the changes that
are made to the project. The budget must be approved by the sponsors before anything can take
place in a project. The project manager needs to provide a project status report to the
stakeholders making sure they have all the facts and measures of where the project is at and
accomplishments that have taken place during the team meetings. Change can occur if a project
does not follow risk plans and help employees to meet deadlines this can have an impact on the
budget. The sponsors need to see all milestones meet by the team and the percentage goal of the
team each week to see where the project stands in the timeline of agreement.
Cost and Schedule Performance
The project manager will use cost performance indicator to find out if the costs
performance is where the budget needs to remain at to finish the gym. If the cost performance
indicator is under the value of one, there will be extra costs that the project manager will have to
14. 14
put out for expenditures not included in the deliverables. The key factor for the project manager
is to avoid an overrun in costs. If the indicator is at one then the estimate at completion will equal
the budget at completion date. This project was able to stay at budget and meet all the needs that
the co-sponsor and sponsor wanted to pay out for the new gym.
The score performance works in a similar way where the value of one must be met to keep the
schedule performance accurate with the budget cost at completion of the gym. A schedule
overrun occurs when the number is lower than one. Cost overruns both are to be avoided if a
project is to stay on schedule and meet all budget requirements. The project manager uses a
formula where earned value divided by plan value will equal your score performance index. If
you divide the earned value by the actual cost of the project, it will be equal to cost performance
value. The project manager sends the reports to the co-sponsor and sponsor by email. The project
manager will have a cloud meeting with the two owners to discuss the changes that need to occur
to keep the budget in place and finish the project on schedule.
Project Quality Measurement and Performance
Quality measurements in the project are very important and should be considered in the
testing phase of a project for any issues or failure that might need to be fixed before the project
gets on its way. According to (Hoegl, Gemueden, Georg, 2001) Team Work Quality is a measure
for the quality of collaboration in teams and consists of six facets: communication, coordination,
balance of member contributions, mutual support, effort, and cohesion. The project manager duty
keeps the sponsors informed by cloud meetings. The project team and will listen to the co-
sponsor for adjustments the sponsors want to see as the team works on each assignment to finish
phases of the project. Quality control with the team would be a tool used to measure all the
performances and keep the percent goals aligned with the project that the project manager will
15. 15
give to the sponsors in a report. The morale will make all the difference if they have confidence
and believe in achieving all goals this will be a tool the project manger will use to work quality
performance within the team.
Project Closure/Shutdown Understanding for Amp’s Gym
A project can be shutdown before it is closed in many ways. Reasons consist of budget
and over run costs and over run schedules, this could lead to the owners shutting the project
down before the finishing date. Lack of communication between the project manager and the
sponsors could also result into distrust and barriers that might make the project manager
overlook important information that can have an impact the project success.
Closure Process for Amp’s Gym
Closing procedure for the project will include all task performances at a 100% of
completion in all phases of the team for Amp’s gym completion. The project manager must sit
down with the sponsors, go over the final status report of the project, and ask them to sign the
project closure form. The key will be to win the acceptance of sponsors and have them sign the
project closing statement. The project manager will sit down with his team and give them praise
for the work accomplished to build morale for the next project the team will perform.
Closure process According to (Dcosta, 2010) means that there has to be an official conclusion to
a project, indicating that the project has come to an end; that the funds and resources will not be
needed anymore and the business operations will continue as normal prior to the conception of
the project.
. Ethical Practices
16. 16
In a project, a team needs to understand all policies and guidelines of how a project
works. Ethical practices will take part in all team members valuing the other team mates with
fairness and respect. The project manager’s job is to make sure all team members work together
and avoid conflicts. The project manager should go over with the team, each week, the
responsibilities and understand how each team member must use proper conduct during the
duration of the project. Building a working relationship with the team the project manager should
first show the team respect. The team will appreciate the project manager building a trusting
relationship with him and avoid conflicts that could occur between team members. If a team
member is late to work the project manager must terminate the employee and have human
resources to replace the position.
Management of the Team
A project must have full consideration of each aspect of needs for the project to get on its
way and finish the project on time. The project must first be managed by the correct deliverables
in the charter and the proper scope of what the sponsors want to build to make a product. Once
the project has started, it will be vital to manage all risk assessment charts with a matrix showing
impact of each risk and the threat it could cost the project manager. The project team must
consider if risk or probability is a high number of risk. If the risk is high, it will be the project
manager’s job to find the solution to lower the impact of the risk. Quality control is very
important and the project team’s job is to give quality in every aspect of the project.
Management must also keep all status reports in order with the sponsors to stay effective in the
project. Communication plan must be enforced by the project team to make sure all the team is
working together to get the project goals accomplished. Coaching leadership for the team
17. 17
members will help build morale and inspiration leadership to understand the team and inspire
them to work. Project management needs to be responsible while inspiring them to work hard
and meet all goals. Outsourcing will always be in house first to give the people in our country a
chance and have a local contact to do business with for the project.
Conclusion
The final report has established a gym that will help build revenue and bring new
customers. The project manager will use all the tools including, risk charts, analysis of status
reports, percentage goals, and communication plan to solve problems and help the project to stay
on the critical path and meet all the deadlines that the co-sponsor and sponsor expect by the
agreement signed in the charter. The last part of the project will be to sign off all documents,
have a meeting with the sponsor, and co-sponsor to make sure they sign off and accept all
agreement of the project and product built by the team.

Project Introduction
The project will consist of a building a new gym from the old one that is showing age and
has many issues including leaks in the roof and not enough capacity for members to function in
training comfortable. The new gym will be down the street on a 5-acre plot. The new gym will
use the most recent technology in equipment to meet the expectations of the customers’
interests. The project will probably take 6-7 months at the estimated cost of $1 million dollars.
Old equipment does not work at full potential and the treadmills slip that is a hazard and safety
issue for the gym. The weights show much rust and make it hard for the members to use on the
bars to curl and bench weight. Membership files are not updated on a regular basis and this is
costing the gym loss of income each day. Locker rooms and bathrooms have tile broken in the
19. 19
old gym that is a safety hazard. According to (Bumgardner, 2015) one of the biggest risks of a
gym accident is tripping over something left lying around. The new gym facility will offer all
new matting on the gym floor to protect the member from falling and injuries while working out.
The old gym doors locks do not work which makes it hard for people who need privacy to
change, shower, and clean-up. The new gym will build a larger bathroom with plenty of space to
meet all the customer needs.
Clear Problem and Result Statement
The problem and result statement are getting rid of the old gym due to too many
problems the gym is not bringing in adequate revenue and losing money every day. The result
will be to invest in a new facility gym that has plenty of space for members and new high-tech
equipment to meet customers’ needs and keep above the competition local. The sponsor Dr.T
will move and build a gym on 5-acres with plenty of parking space for the customers. This was a
major issue with the old gym. Results will benefit to change the loss of revenue the gym has
been making for years to an increase in new memberships and revenue gains each year.
Mission Justification
The new project will be led by the project manager Dale Newton, to produce a gym in the
right location to fulfill the needs of the customers and the sponsor. Once the authorization has
been granted, the project manager will build a new gym on a 5-acre plot. The mission
justification will be to help Dr.T increase his revenue and possibly build more gyms based on the
success of this first new gym building project. The project will be complete in an estimate of 6
months and have a critical path deadline to finalize the project for the sponsor. The project team
20. 20
supports Dr.T in building the gym to invest in return on investment in the project within the first
and second fiscal year.
Project Scope Statement
The building will consist of new gym that will be built solid to weather all storm
conditions. The new gym will have tinted windows to help save cost on the utilities bill every
month. Insulation of the highest rating will be purchased to keep the building warm in the winter.
The company will have A-grade treated lumber for the building from Lowes® Construction will
concrete floors , a metal frame with cinder block support. The gym will have heavy duty
aluminum siding. The new gym will offer a flat pitch tar roof. Two restrooms one for the men
and women including an automatic sink to wash hands without turning on the water. A cardio
center upstairs built with new carpet and a separate area for aerobics instructors to use for
classes. A stairway that has safety handles to keep customers from falling. The stair way will
also include steps that are made of steel and have grooves in them to keep the customer from
slipping on the stairway. The trees will be on the east side of the building will remain all other
tree will be removed and land will be cleared and leveled is included in the process of building
the new gym.
