Introduction
The Introduction provides a high level overview of the project and what is included in this Project Management Plan. This should include a high level description of the project and describe the projects deliverables and benefits. Excessive detail is not necessary in this section as the other sections of the project plan will include this information. This section should provide a summarized framework of the project and its purpose. Look back at the Project Charter for information to include in this section.Project Management Approach
This section is where you outline the overall management approach for the project. This section should describe, in general terms, the roles and authority of project team members. It should also include which organizations will provide resources for the project and any resource constraints or limitations. If there are any decisions which must be made by specific individuals—for example authorizing additional funding by the project sponsor—this should also be stated here. It should be written as an Executive Summary for the Project Management Plan.
State the scope of the project in this section. The scope statement from the project charter should be used as a starting point; however, the project plan needs to include a much more detailed scope than the charter. This detail should include what the project does and does not include. The more detail included in this section, the better the product. This will help to clarify what is included in the project and help to avoid any confusion from project team members and stakeholders. Milestone List
Provide a summary list of milestones including dates for each milestone. Include an introductory paragraph in this section which provides some insight to the major milestones. This section should also mention or discuss actions taken if any changes to the milestones or delivery dates are required.

Project Management Plan
Disclaimer: The information provided below cannot contain enough information to complete the
Project Management Plan template provided for this assignment. The goal of this assignment is to
understand the process of creating a Project Management Plan. When enough detail is not provided,
use your best judgement to fill in the blanks.
The IT Project that was completed earlier in the semester involved the implementation phase of a
new building project. This assignment goes beyond the earlier project to look at the project from the
Analysis phase to the Evaluation phase.
Your organization plans to acquire additional facilities in the future. Your experience makes you the
perfect overall Project Manager for the future projects, as well as for the IT Department. As Project
Manager, you must develop a generic Project Management Plan that covers all aspects of any future
projects as outlined below.
The state notifies your Chief Executive Officer (CEO) when legislation approves the acquisition of new
facilities. The CEO then notifies the Chief Operations Officer (COO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
THE COO acts as the project sponsor and approves the opening of all facilities. The CFO commits the
necessary funds to pay for the facility. The COO identifies the divisions/departments that will occupy
the facility and they assign representatives to work on the project team. The COO then tasks the
Project Manager to begin the analysis phase. The scope of the project includes analyzing, designing,
developing, implementing, and evaluating the project.
The Project Manager works with each division/department and IT to document all their requirements
(office structure, furnishings, IT, etc.). The Project Manager then forwards all requirements to the
Operation division’s Facility Manager who works with the architect to design the building and with
vendors to acquire the furnishings, etc. The Project Manager works with the IT department to procure
the IT requirements. All buildings have standardized requirements (and costs) that are also included in
the analysis (i.e. entryways, hallways, restrooms, IT communication closets, IT network interface ports,
a telecommunications demarcation room for phone, internet, audio video and other public service
hookups, etc.). The Facility Manager will hired a building contractor to build the facility and ensure all
internal electrical and network cabling is routed from the communication closets to every room/area.
The building contractor will also ensure all communication closet racks needed for the network
infrastructure is acquired and installed. The building contractor will work with the public service
telecommunication provider (phone company) to provide the telecommunication cabling to the
demarcation point within the facility. The cost of these services is determined by facility size and
structure and provided by the Facil ...

The simplified project management process it-toolkitsIT-Toolkits.org
One of the challenges of explaining project management to people who are unfamiliar with the approach, is that descriptions are often either so high-level as to be meaningless, or so detailed that they are overwhelming. Over the years, I have come to use a model as a framework for introducing and discussing project management tools and techniques. It can be used as the basis for a five-minute explanation of what is involved in project management, but also as an outline for more detailed discussions. (The actual model can be found on the Key Consulting website under free templates and info.)

Work Management Plan
The work management plan is a plan put together by the project manager at the beginning of the project. It contains all of the steps needed to complete the project and who is responsible for the tasks. The work management plan can be used in conjunction with the work breakdown structure, but does not need to contain the directions of how to accomplish the tasks. “Work plans document all activities to be undertaken, keep everyone moving in the same direction, and allow for comparison with and prioritizing against competing projects. If we do not know where we are in our work at any given point in time, we cannot accurately plan, schedule, or proceed with future efforts. Once projects are under way, we need a map to remind us of what is next, when it is due, and who is responsible for it.” (Burgher & Snyder, 2012)
In the project of The Cheesecake Factory delivery service, the project manager will be responsible for creating the work management plan. Since the timeline of the project is primarily within 60 days for most deliverables, the work management plan will be updated on a weekly basis and discussed at project meetings. Each task within the project will be outlined to include what is to be done and by whom. The person responsible for each action item will be asked to update the work plan weekly with their progress as to the status. However, the only person that will be permitted to add new tasks or change existing tasks will be the project manager. Having a plan that is accessible and visible to the team will aide in keeping the project within scope and on schedule. Additionally, with only the project manager being able to make changes, it will prevent chaos within the project planning.
Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is part of the planned activities to ensure the project is meeting the objectives that it is supposed to. They are “the things that the project team will do to determine if project performance is meeting the requirements of quality and other standards. The activities are the things the project team will do to check project performance against the project plan using specifications as the targets.” (Rose, 2014)
As part of the quality assurance with The Cheesecake Factory delivery service project, there will be several inspections along the course of the project. There will be project team members from marketing and operations that will be responsible for inspecting the final product of the customized delivery vehicles to ensure they are within the guidelines of what was ordered and agreed upon. There will also be a specific marketing team in place to review marketing materials after printing to ensure everything was processed correctly on that end.

Week 3-Original Post
NURS 6050: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
Walden University
In 2010 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted; the hope was to expand access to medical care, make coverage more affordable, and decrease the number of people without medical insurance. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded and improved health insurance coverage in two primary ways. First, the number of individuals receiving insurance coverage grown by increasing access to coverage through Medicaid expansion and providing subsidies to purchase private insurance on the health care exchanges. Second, the ACA upgraded the quality and scope of coverage by improving benefit design, including implementing the essential health benefits (Willison & Singer, 2017). People who did not have coverage through their employer or Medicaid were required to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. The Marketplace was created as a one-stop-shop for people to view multiple plans and purchase insurance. Just because you have access to health care insurance does not mean you are going to receive quality health care (Teitelbaum, 2018).
Both parties have asked that the ACA be repealed or replaced for multiple reasons. Every Republican presidential candidate for 2016 has called for the repeal of the ACA. Some, but not all, Republican candidates have proposed health policies that they would like to put in place after repeal, but there is no broad agreement on a replacement for the ACA (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). The federal government would spend $90.9 billion less on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). State governments as a whole would spend $5.2 billion more on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). Healthcare is a priority to many Americans for obvious reasons; it was more costly for those with preexisting conditions before the ACA to obtain Medical Insurance. With the ACA the income guidelines for Medicaid where changed so additional people qualified that didn’t prior. As a Behavioral Health Nurse, I am a fan of anyone and everyone having access to Healthcare Services. I have seen to many times my patient not have the money for their medications because insurance was canceled so they go off their medications, they become unstable and ended up in the Emergency Department and admitted Inpatient, costing more money, hurting themselves and their loved ones.
Politicians are aware that election time is the best time to play the tug of war game with the heavy ticket items to capture someone votes. Republicans ran hard on promises to get rid of the law in every election since it passed in 2010. But when the GOP finally got control of the House, the Senate and the White House in 2017, Republicans found
they could not reach agreement

Discussion Board Week 1-Original Post
11/30/2020
I have worked in an outpatient behavioral health clinic for the past seven years with many different providers. I live in a rural community, many patients wait six to twelve months to be seen. Patients being treated for Attention Deficit Disorder must be officially tested before being seen by a Psychologist. For this discussion board post, I have changed the name of my patient to Paul to ensure patient confidentially. The provider I worked with this particular patient will also be referred to as PMHNP to ensure provider confidentiality.
Paul was a ten-year-old Caucasian male referred to our clinic diagnosed per DSM criteria, confirmed via Psychologist testing with ADHD. When he saw the Psychologist, he was also diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety. He struggled with concentration, hyperactivity, impulse control, and disorganization. He presented to his appointment with his mother and father, clean, well-nourished, pleasant, interactive with staff, reported no medication allergies, current medication Zyrtec for seasonal allergies. Paul just had his well-child exam and is current on vaccinations and his primary care provider completed lab work to include CBC, CMP, TSH, Vit D, B12, and A1C, all have returned normal. Family history reported father has a history of ADHD (never medicated), brother has a history of depression and anxiety (never medicated treating with psychotherapy), no other significant family history to report. Paul’s current weight at his appointment was 30kg.
PMHNP spent one hour with Paul and his parents for the initial new patient appointment (Thursday). It was decided Paul would be prescribed Strattera (atomoxetine) 40mg once a day for one week then increase to 80mg once a day. I returned to work on Monday and received a call from Paul’s mom, she said he was acting strange. He was tearful, had been in his room with the door closed for most of the weekend, she stated on Sunday she went into his room and he was crying and said he was just thinking about dying and his parents dying. She stated he had already had his meds Sunday so she kept him with her that entire day and made Sunday night a campout night in the Livingroom so he would think it was fun and she could keep a close eye on him. I had a cancelation that morning for him to come to see PMHNP and he was in to see her within twenty minutes and removed from Strattera. His parents decided medications were no longer the route they wanted to try for treatment and a referral was made for psychotherapy.
The only medication Paul takes on occasion is Zyrtec which is in an antihistamine drug class, Strattera is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor; there is no known drug interaction between the two medications. Reflecting on his age and the medication, Strattera has a black box labeled for suicidal ideation with adolescents dia.

Project Management Plan
Disclaimer: The information provided below cannot contain enough information to complete the
Project Management Plan template provided for this assignment. The goal of this assignment is to
understand the process of creating a Project Management Plan. When enough detail is not provided,
use your best judgement to fill in the blanks.
The IT Project that was completed earlier in the semester involved the implementation phase of a
new building project. This assignment goes beyond the earlier project to look at the project from the
Analysis phase to the Evaluation phase.
Your organization plans to acquire additional facilities in the future. Your experience makes you the
perfect overall Project Manager for the future projects, as well as for the IT Department. As Project
Manager, you must develop a generic Project Management Plan that covers all aspects of any future
projects as outlined below.
The state notifies your Chief Executive Officer (CEO) when legislation approves the acquisition of new
facilities. The CEO then notifies the Chief Operations Officer (COO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
THE COO acts as the project sponsor and approves the opening of all facilities. The CFO commits the
necessary funds to pay for the facility. The COO identifies the divisions/departments that will occupy
the facility and they assign representatives to work on the project team. The COO then tasks the
Project Manager to begin the analysis phase. The scope of the project includes analyzing, designing,
developing, implementing, and evaluating the project.
The Project Manager works with each division/department and IT to document all their requirements
(office structure, furnishings, IT, etc.). The Project Manager then forwards all requirements to the
Operation division’s Facility Manager who works with the architect to design the building and with
vendors to acquire the furnishings, etc. The Project Manager works with the IT department to procure
the IT requirements. All buildings have standardized requirements (and costs) that are also included in
the analysis (i.e. entryways, hallways, restrooms, IT communication closets, IT network interface ports,
a telecommunications demarcation room for phone, internet, audio video and other public service
hookups, etc.). The Facility Manager will hired a building contractor to build the facility and ensure all
internal electrical and network cabling is routed from the communication closets to every room/area.
The building contractor will also ensure all communication closet racks needed for the network
infrastructure is acquired and installed. The building contractor will work with the public service
telecommunication provider (phone company) to provide the telecommunication cabling to the
demarcation point within the facility. The cost of these services is determined by facility size and

One of the challenges of explaining project management to people who are unfamiliar with the approach, is that descriptions are often either so high-level as to be meaningless, or so detailed that they are overwhelming. Over the years, I have come to use a model as a framework for introducing and discussing project management tools and techniques. It can be used as the basis for a five-minute explanation of what is involved in project management, but also as an outline for more detailed discussions. (The actual model can be found on the Key Consulting website under free templates and info.)

Work Management Plan
The work management plan is a plan put together by the project manager at the beginning of the project. It contains all of the steps needed to complete the project and who is responsible for the tasks. The work management plan can be used in conjunction with the work breakdown structure, but does not need to contain the directions of how to accomplish the tasks. “Work plans document all activities to be undertaken, keep everyone moving in the same direction, and allow for comparison with and prioritizing against competing projects. If we do not know where we are in our work at any given point in time, we cannot accurately plan, schedule, or proceed with future efforts. Once projects are under way, we need a map to remind us of what is next, when it is due, and who is responsible for it.” (Burgher & Snyder, 2012)
In the project of The Cheesecake Factory delivery service, the project manager will be responsible for creating the work management plan. Since the timeline of the project is primarily within 60 days for most deliverables, the work management plan will be updated on a weekly basis and discussed at project meetings. Each task within the project will be outlined to include what is to be done and by whom. The person responsible for each action item will be asked to update the work plan weekly with their progress as to the status. However, the only person that will be permitted to add new tasks or change existing tasks will be the project manager. Having a plan that is accessible and visible to the team will aide in keeping the project within scope and on schedule. Additionally, with only the project manager being able to make changes, it will prevent chaos within the project planning.
Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is part of the planned activities to ensure the project is meeting the objectives that it is supposed to. They are “the things that the project team will do to determine if project performance is meeting the requirements of quality and other standards. The activities are the things the project team will do to check project performance against the project plan using specifications as the targets.” (Rose, 2014)
As part of the quality assurance with The Cheesecake Factory delivery service project, there will be several inspections along the course of the project. There will be project team members from marketing and operations that will be responsible for inspecting the final product of the customized delivery vehicles to ensure they are within the guidelines of what was ordered and agreed upon. There will also be a specific marketing team in place to review marketing materials after printing to ensure everything was processed correctly on that end.

NURS 6050: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
Walden University
In 2010 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted; the hope was to expand access to medical care, make coverage more affordable, and decrease the number of people without medical insurance. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded and improved health insurance coverage in two primary ways. First, the number of individuals receiving insurance coverage grown by increasing access to coverage through Medicaid expansion and providing subsidies to purchase private insurance on the health care exchanges. Second, the ACA upgraded the quality and scope of coverage by improving benefit design, including implementing the essential health benefits (Willison & Singer, 2017). People who did not have coverage through their employer or Medicaid were required to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. The Marketplace was created as a one-stop-shop for people to view multiple plans and purchase insurance. Just because you have access to health care insurance does not mean you are going to receive quality health care (Teitelbaum, 2018).
Both parties have asked that the ACA be repealed or replaced for multiple reasons. Every Republican presidential candidate for 2016 has called for the repeal of the ACA. Some, but not all, Republican candidates have proposed health policies that they would like to put in place after repeal, but there is no broad agreement on a replacement for the ACA (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). The federal government would spend $90.9 billion less on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). State governments as a whole would spend $5.2 billion more on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). Healthcare is a priority to many Americans for obvious reasons; it was more costly for those with preexisting conditions before the ACA to obtain Medical Insurance. With the ACA the income guidelines for Medicaid where changed so additional people qualified that didn’t prior. As a Behavioral Health Nurse, I am a fan of anyone and everyone having access to Healthcare Services. I have seen to many times my patient not have the money for their medications because insurance was canceled so they go off their medications, they become unstable and ended up in the Emergency Department and admitted Inpatient, costing more money, hurting themselves and their loved ones.
Politicians are aware that election time is the best time to play the tug of war game with the heavy ticket items to capture someone votes. Republicans ran hard on promises to get rid of the law in every election since it passed in 2010. But when the GOP finally got control of the House, the Senate and the White House in 2017, Republicans found
they could not reach agreement
on how to "repeal and replace" the law (Kaiser Health News, 2018). And political strategists s.

Week 6
COLLAPSE
My own attitude has changed from lack of understanding to enlightenment over the years. In elementary school I never experienced students with disabilities in my classrooms, growing up. But as the years went on and legislation changed students with disabilities started trickling into general education classrooms. They were always ignored by other students and often times had an aide to assist them with assignments. As an adult my heart has opened up to accept all types of people. In the Pennhurst documentary, it was reiterated, they are just people (Baldini, 1968). Which is my outlook on how to treat everyone. Every single person is a human being, treat them the way you wish to be treated. Everyone no matter their race, disability or socio-economic status deserves to be treated humanely.
As an educator I have worked with several different types of students. Students from low socio-economic areas, behavioral issues, vision impairments, hearing impairments, with autism, hyper activity and down syndrome, and with all of these students I have given them my best effort to show them that they are students first. Slavin and Schunk (2017) said it best, “Each student has many characteristics, and the disability is only one of them. To define the child in terms of the disability does him or her an injustice” (p. 235). It is our role as an educator to incorporate different learning styles to give each student, regardless of disabilities, the education that they deserve.
Welcoming students with disabilities into my classroom will be an important aspect in my role as an educator. Allowing each student to feel love and acceptance by peers is important for any students success. Van Brummelen (2009) states, “ It is important to appreciate students with special needs for who they are. Always look beyond their disabilities and teach them as whole persons” (p. 208). Being an advocate for my students with learning disabilities will garner them respect and dignity that they need to be self sufficient. In the Pennhurst documentary, the children did not have complete proper advocacy from the people that worked with them. They were simply shuffled along and not given the proper education and care that they needed to be self-sufficient (Baldini, 1968). “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked” (Psalm 82:3-4, New International Version). It is our Godly duty to defend individuals who can not defend themselves. In His eyes we are all created equal and in that we all deserve equal treatment and opportunities.

of
Measurements
In
part
B,
It
is
asked
to
estimate
the
uncertainty
of
your
measurements
of
𝜃
and
r.
Uncertainty
of
measurement
is
the
doubt
that
exists
about
the
result
of
any
measurement.
You
might
think
that
well-‐made
rulers,
clocks
and
thermometers
should
be
trustworthy,
and
give
the
right
answers.
But
for
every
measurement
-‐
even
the
most
careful
-‐
there
is
always
a
margin
of
doubt.
It
is
important
not
to
confuse
the
terms
‘error’
and
‘uncertainty’.
Error
is
the
difference
between
the
measured
value
and
the
‘true
value’
of
the
thing
being
measured.
Uncertainty
is
a
quantification
of
the
doubt
about
the
measurement
result
Since
there
is
always
a
margin
of
doubt
about
any
measurement,
we
need
to
ask
‘How
big
is
the
margin?’
and
‘How
bad
is
the
doubt?’
Thus,
two
numbers
are
really
needed
in
order
to
quantify
an
uncertainty.
One
is
the
width
of
the
margin,
or
interval.
The
other
is
a
confidence
level,
and
states
how
sure
we
are
that
the
‘true
value’
is
within
that
margin.
You
can

get
from

Measurement of the angle θ For better understanding .docxwkyra78
Measurement of the angle θ
For better understanding I am showing you a different particle track diagram bellow. Where at
point C particle 𝜋 − 𝑎𝑛𝑑 Σ− are created and the Σ− decays into 𝜋 ∓ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 K− particles
The angle θ between the π− and Σ− momentum vectors can be determined by drawing tangents
to the π− and Σ− tracks at the point of the Σ− decay. We can then measure the angle between
the tangents using a protractor. Alternative method which does not require a protractor is also
possible. Let AC and BC be the tangents to the π− and Σ− tracks respectively. Drop a
perpendicular (AB) and measure the distances AB and BC. The ratio AB/BC gives the tangent of
the angle180◦−θ. It should be noted that only some of the time will the angle θ exceed 90◦ as
shown here.
Determining the uncertainty of Measurements
In part B, It is asked to estimate the uncertainty of your measurements of 𝜃 and r.
Uncertainty of measurement is the doubt that exists about the result of any measurement. You
might think that well-made rulers, clocks and thermometers should be trustworthy, and give
the right answers. But for every measurement - even the most careful - there is always a margin
of doubt.
It is important not to confuse the terms ‘error’ and ‘uncertainty’.
Error is the difference between the measured value and the ‘true value’ of the thing being
measured.
Uncertainty is a quantification of the doubt about the measurement result
Since there is always a margin of doubt about any measurement, we need to ask ‘How big is the
margin?’ and ‘How bad is the doubt?’ Thus, two numbers are really needed in order to quantify
an uncertainty. One is the width of the margin, or interval. The other is a confidence level, and
states how sure we are that the ‘true value’ is within that margin.
You can increase the amount of information you get from your measurements by taking a
number of readings and carrying out some basic statistical calculations. The two most
important statistical calculations are to find the average or arithmetic mean, and the standard
deviation for a set of numbers.
The ‘true’ value for the standard deviation can only be found from a very large (infinite) set of
readings. From a moderate number of values, only an estimate of the standard deviation can be
found. The symbol s is usually used for the estimated standard deviation.
Suppose you have a set of n readings. Start by finding the average:
For the set of readings x={16, 19, 18, 16, 17, 19, 20, 15, 17 and 13}, the average is �̅� =
∑ 𝑥𝑖
𝑛
=
17.
Next find (𝑥𝑖 − �̅�)
2
Then 𝑠 = √
(𝑥𝑖−�̅�)
2
𝑛−1
= 2.21
Lifetime calculation
In part C you are asked to determine the life time of the neutral particles from their
momentums.
The Σ− lifetime can be approximately determined using the measured values of the Σ− track
lengths. The average momentum of the Σ− particle can be found from its initial and fin

Meaning-Making Forum 2 (Week 5)
Meaning-Making Forums 1-4 are this course's unique final project.
Be fully engaged in Phase Two!
After reviewing the readings, presentations, lecture notes, articles, and web-engagements, and previous assignments, artificially move your predetermined careseeker (i.e., Crossroads’ Careseekers: Bruce, Joshua, Brody, Justin, or Melissa) through Phase Two.
NOTE: These research-based forums require that you draw upon ALL
of the course readings and learning activities to date, in order to substantively develop each phase in our
Solution
-based, Short-term, Pastoral Counseling (SbStPC) process. Noticeably support each core assertion.
Rapport and Relational Alignment.
Briefly discuss how you will continue to build rapport and shift your relational style in order to best align with the careseeker’s style (i.e., use DISC language) and current behavioral position (i.e., attending, blaming, or willing).
Phase Two Distinctive Features.
Narrate movement of careseeker through Phase Two’s distinctive features (i.e., purpose, goal, chief aim, role/responsibility, use of guiding assumptions) and apply pertinent insights and techniques from ALL the readings, previous assignments, and the Bible.
Supportive Feedback Break.
What portrait, definition(s), key thought(s), and/or assessment insight from the
Quick Reference Guide
might be utilized in the supportive feedback technique?
Phase Two Marker.
Describe a marker that indicates you have collaboratively ‘imagineered” a picture of life without the problem. In what way does this marker indicate the careseeker is in a willing position and ready for Phase Three?
Food for Thought:
When learning a new people skill or counseling technique, is it normal to “feel” awkward and fake? Use at least 1 example and thoughtfully explain how this “feeling” might be normalized.
TIPS:
Carefully Follow Meaning-Making Forum Guidelines & Tips!
Make sure to use headings (5) so that the most inattentive reader may easily follow your thoughts.
Use the annotated outline approach. Bullets should have concise, complete, well-developed sentences or paragraphs.
Foster a “noble-minded” climate for investigating claims through well-supported core assertions (i.e., consider the validation pattern of the Bereans; Acts 17:11).
Noticeably support assertions to facilitate further investigation and to avoid the appearance of plagiarism.
Since you have the required materials (e.g.,
Masterpiece)
, abridge any related citations (Nichols, p. 12) and do not list the required source in a References’ section.
Secondary sources must follow current APA guidelines for citations and References.
Make every effort to prove that you care about the subject matter by proofreading to eliminate grammar and spelling distractions.

Project Title: Michael Joseph Place, The place to be
Project Start Date: 25/7/2018
Projected Finish Date: 25/12/2018
Budget Information: $ 4,500.00
Project Manager: Student name,[email protected], 210- 105 - 6676
Business Need
The project manager will be hosting an evening lounge event that will be targeting the clientele to an upscale lounge to be built in downtown. Through such an event the city will have a positive exposure.
There will be need for effective marketing, music, modern décor and most likely investors. The menu for food and drinks will need to be within budget. The venue needs to have amiable space and adequate seats for all guests.
The first step to this project involves coming up with a plan on a piece of paper. Once this is done the next step will involve selection of vendors to various goods and services. Once everything has been put to perspective the next stage will be to involve investors who will include local business owners. These investors will be encouraged to do so with the exchange for them to market and advertise their products at the event. We will have three packages for investors including Silver, Gold and Platinum packages.
Project Objectives
The proposal is to have a social entertainment evening lounge in Chicago. The project managers will be showcasing the new concept of entertainment by holding a series of events known as “The Place to be!”
· The events will be used to showcase the atmosphere that the new lounge will be offering
· The events will offer the professional audiences an opportunity to network while at the same time being entertained.
· The events will be targeting an audience of 150 attendants
· To have an environment where attendants can dance, dine and drink socially while discussing business.
Approach
This project will be managed in accordance with the PMI approach as modified.
Assumptions/Constraints/Dependencies
The assumption is that with the provision of an exquisite and upscale venue that is mature in Chicago, IL, will be successful due to the fact that there is no such a venue within a 100 mile radius.
One of the likely constraint is finding a venue that grabs attention of the targeted crowd.
The success of these events depends on attracting two sets of individuals. One of them is investors and the other is private professionals who will attend a social event at night.
Initial Risk Factors
· Obtaining a liquor license on time for the event is the major risk factor.
· Failure of attendees despite investing money and time is another risk.
· Failing to complete the organizational plans within 30 days before the event series begin.
· Not attracting any viable investors
Regulatory cost/impact
One of the needed licensing is from the city council where I will be required to get a special event license. This will enable us to have alcohol i.

Mediation

Mediation
Recently, I had a dispute with a friend based on sharing of roles and duties at work. If I were to use a mediation to solve the conflict I would have used facilitative mediation instead of evaluative mediation. Facilitative mediation refers to the types of solving conflicts where the mediator creates a process to assist the parties in reaching into a mutual agreement. Evaluative mediation on the other hand refers to the type of mediation where the judge helps the parties in reaching into a resolution through using the weakness of the case (Shrout & Bolger, 2017). The nature of the dispute plays a very huge role when choosing the type of mediation style to use. Since some cases can not fit well or makes it hard to find a solution when using a certain mediation style. For instance work related disputes and family related disputes require mediation that won’t seem to favor one party.
I would use transformative mediation, since it is mostly bases on improving the personal power of each party (Folberg & Taylor, 2016). Also transformative mediation mainly helps in creating a sense of understanding between the two parties through communication so as to solve the dispute. And lastly the reason why I would use the mediation is because; the process that is used does not favor one party. During the process, the mediator listens to both parties and from this he or she is able to help in making the two understand each other and be able to come into a mutual agreement.

Response 1 PD
Question 1
A set of beliefs, norms and values that is shared by a group, culture is a systemic sense that can create a common commitment to an organization’s mission. With identifying markers that extend beyond the individual, it can be represented in a fabric of shared themes and feelings. Whether displayed in forms of dress, symbols, verbal phrases or typical behaviors, its permeance can be silent in its mode of action, yet quite visible to internal and external stakeholders (Daft, 2018).
Serving two fundamental and critical functions, the culture of an organization can be a catalyst in uniting members in how they relate to one another within the organization and how the members follow the same process in relation to the outside environment (Daft, 2018). However, although it is often associated with ethical decision making (Kara, Rojas-Mendez & Turan), the element of inequality can create fear and discourse if an unrealistic and bias culture themes are dictated, thus resulting in disagreement or conflict with management. Therefore, the perception of stakeholders or groups of interest regarding the cultural practices of the organization may not be entirely correct (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019).
Directly related to the perception of the value system of the organization and its management, the acceptable cultural differences that shape the internal behavior of members can have an impact in external relationships (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019). However, as Daft (2018) noted, a mechanistic or controlling system may block any organic input,.

Introduction
The Introduction provides a high level overview of the project
and what is included in this Project Management Plan. This
should include a high level description of the project and
describe the projects deliverables and benefits. Excessive detail
is not necessary in this section as the other sections of the
project plan will include this information. This section should
provide a summarized framework of the project and its purpose.
Look back at the Project Charter for information to include in
this section.
Total Software Incorporated (TSI) has recently approved the
SmartVoice project to move forward for project initiation
within the research and development (R&D) group. This project
will result in the development of new voice recognition
software and supports TSI’s corporate strategy of providing
progressive solutions to clients which improve productivity in
both the workplace and home environment. While voice
recognition software is currently available, TSI believes that
new technological developments will enable our team to
develop a solution far superior to what is currently available.
TSI has been successful in gaining market share because of its
aggressive pursuit of product quality, ease of use, flexibility,
and customer service. Additionally, customers understand that
our products may be applied to a wide range of uses for
business and personal functions. By leveraging our reputation
for superior quality and user-friendly products, and capitalizing
on new technology, TSI can position itself as the premier
provider of effective and easy to use voice recognitions
3. software in today’s marketplace.Project Management Approach
This section is where you outline the overall management
approach for the project. This section should describe, in
general terms, the roles and authority of project team members.
It should also include which organizations will provide
resources for the project and any resource constraints or
limitations. If there are any decisions which must be made by
specific individuals—for example authorizing additional
funding by the project sponsor—this should also be stated here.
This section also includes what project management Phases you
will be using throughout the execution of your project. It
should be written as an Executive Summary for the Project
Management Plan.
The Project Manager, Joe Green, has the overall authority and
responsibility for managing and executing this project according
to this Project Plan and its Subsidiary Management Plans. The
project team will consist of personnel from the coding group,
quality control/assurance group, technical writing group, and
testing group. The project manager will work with all resources
to perform project planning. All project and subsidiary
management plans will be reviewed and approved by the project
sponsor. All funding decisions will also be made by the project
sponsor. Any delegation of approval authority to the project
manager should be done in writing and be signed by both the
project sponsor and project manager.
The project team will be a matrix in that team members from
each organization continue to report to their organizational
management throughout the duration of the project. The project
manager is responsible for communicating with organizational
managers on the progress and performance of each project
resource. Project Scope
State the scope of the project in this section. The scope
statement from the project charter should be used as a starting
point; however, the project plan needs to include a much more
detailed scope than the charter. This detail should include what
the project does and does not include. The more detail included
4. in this section, the better the product. This will help to clarify
what is included in the project and help to avoid any confusion
from project team members and stakeholders.
The scope of TSI’s SmartVoice project includes the planning,
design, development, testing, and transition of the SmartVoice
voice recognition software package. This software will meet or
exceed organizational software standards and additional
requirements established in the project charter. The scope of
this project also includes completion of all documentation,
manuals, and training aids to be used in conjunction with the
software. Project completion will occur when the software and
documentation package has been successfully executed and
transitioned to TSI’s manufacturing group for production.
All SmartVoice project work will be performed internally and
no portion of this project will be outsourced. The scope of this
project does not include any changes in requirements to
standard operating systems to run the software, software
updates or revisions.Milestone List
Provide a summary list of milestones including dates for each
milestone. Include an introductory paragraph in this section
which provides some insight to the major milestones. This
section should also mention or discuss actions taken if any
changes to the milestones or delivery dates are required.
The below chart lists the major milestones for the SmartVoice
Project. This chart is comprised only of major project
milestones such as completion of a project phase or gate review.
There may be smaller milestones which are not included on this
chart but are included in the project schedule and WBS. If there
are any scheduling delays which may impact a milestone or
delivery date, the project manager must be notified immediately
so proactive measures may be taken to mitigate slips in dates.
Any approved changes to these milestones or dates will be
communicated to the project team by the project manager.

11/30/xxSchedule Baseline and Work Breakdown Structure
This section should discuss the WBS, WBS Dictionary, and
Schedule baseline and how they will be used in managing the
project’s scope. The WBS provides the work packages to be
performed for the completion of the project. The WBS
Dictionary defines the work packages. The schedule baseline
provides a reference point for managing project progress as it
pertains to schedule and timeline. The schedule baseline and
work breakdown structure (WBS) should be created in
Microsoft Project. The WBS can be exported from the MS
Project file.
The WBS for the SmartVoice Project is comprised of work
packages which do not exceed 40 hours of work but are at least
4 hours of work. Work packages were developed through close
collaboration among project team members and stakeholders
with input from functional managers and research from past
projects.
6. The WBS Dictionary defines all work packages for the
SmartVoice Project. These definitions include all tasks,
resources, and deliverables. Every work package in the WBS is
defined in the WBS Dictionary and will aid in resource
planning, task completion, and ensuring deliverables meet
project requirements.
The SmartVoice Project schedule was derived from the WBS
and Project Charter with input from all project team members.
The schedule was completed, reviewed by the Project Sponsor,
and approved and base-lined. The schedule will be maintained
as a MS Project Gantt Chart by the SmartVoice Project
Manager. Any proposed changes to the schedule will follow
TSI’s change control process. If established boundary controls
may be exceeded, a change request will be submitted to the
Project Manager. The Project Manager and team will determine
the impact of the change on the schedule, cost, resources, scope,
and risks. If it is determined that the impacts will exceed the
boundary conditions then the change will be forwarded to the
Project Sponsor for review and approval. The SmartVoice
boundary conditions are:
CPI less than 0.8 or greater than 1.2
SPI less than 0.8 or greater than 1.2
If the change is approved by the Project Sponsor then it will be
implemented by the Project Manager who will update the
schedule and all documentation and communicate the change to
all stakeholders in accordance with the Change Control Process.
Change Management Plan
This section should describe your change control process.
Ideally, this process will be some type of organizational
standard which is repeatable and done on most or all projects
when a change is necessary. Changes to any project must be
carefully considered and the impact of the change must be clear
7. in order to make any type of approval decisions. Many
organizations have change control boards (CCBs) which review
proposed changes and either approve or deny them. This is an
effective way to provide oversight and ensure adequate
feedback and review of the change is obtained. This section
should also identify who has approval authority for changes to
the project, who submits the changes, how they are tracked and
monitored.
For complex or large projects the Change Management Plan may
be included as an appendix to the Project Management Plan or
as a separate, stand-alone document. We have a detailed
Change Management Plan template available on our website.
The following steps comprise TSI’s organization change control
process for all projects and will be utilized on the SmartVoice
project:
Step #1: Identify the need for a change (Any Stakeholder)
Requestor will submit a completed TSI change request form to
the project manager
Step #2: Log change in the change request register (Project
Manager)
The project manager will maintain a log of all change requests
for the duration of the
project
Step #3: Conduct an evaluation of the change (Project Manager,
Project Team, Requestor)
The project manager will conduct an evaluation of the impact of
the change to cost, risk,
schedule, and scope
8. Step #4: Submit change request to Change Control Board (CCB)
(Project Manager)
The project manager will submit the change request and
analysis to the CCB for review
Step #5: Change Control Board decision (CCB)
The CCB will discuss the proposed change and decide whether
or not it will be approved
based on all submitted information
Step #6: Implement change (Project Manager)
If a change is approved by the CCB, the project manager will
update and re-baseline
project documentation as necessary as well as ensure any
changes are communicated to
the team and stakeholders
Any team member or stakeholder may submit a change request
for the SmartVoice Project. The SmartVoice Project Sponsor
will chair the CCB and any changes to project scope, cost, or
schedule must meet his approval. All change requests will be
logged in the change control register by the Project Manager
and tracked through to completion whether approved or not.
Communications Management Plan
The purpose of the Communications Management Plan is to
define the communication requirements for the project and how
information will be distributed to ensure project success. You
should give considerable thought to how you want to manage
communications on every project. By having a solid
communications management approach you’ll find that many
project management problems can be avoided. In this section
you should provide an overview of your communications
management approach. Generally, the Communications
9. Management Plan defines the following:
· Communication requirements based on roles
· What information will be communicated
· How the information will be communicated
· When will information be distributed
· Who does the communication
· Who receives the communication
· Communications conduct
For larger and more complex projects, the Communications
Management Plan may be included as an appendix or separate
document apart from the Project Management Plan. We have a
detailed Communications Management Plan template available
on our website.
This Communications Management Plan sets the
communications framework for this project. It will serve as a
guide for communications throughout the life of the project and
will be updated as communication requirements change. This
plan identifies and defines the roles of SmartVoice project team
members as they pertain to communications. It also includes a
communications matrix which maps the communication
requirements of this project, and communication conduct for
meetings and other forms of communication. A project team
directory is also included to provide contact information for all
stakeholders directly involved in the project.
The Project Manager will take the lead role in ensuring
effective communications on this project. The communications
requirements are documented in the Communications Matrix
10. below. The Communications Matrix will be used as the guide
for what information to communicate, who is to do the
communicating, when to communicate it, and to whom to
communicate.

Communications Conduct:
Meetings:
The Project Manager will distribute a meeting agenda at least 2
days prior to any scheduled meeting and all participants are
expected to review the agenda prior to the meeting. During all
project meetings the timekeeper will ensure that the group
adheres to the times stated in the agenda and the recorder will
take all notes for distribution to the team upon completion of
the meeting. It is imperative that all participants arrive to each
meeting on time and all cell phones and blackberries should be
turned off or set to vibrate mode to minimize distractions.
Meeting minutes will be distributed no later than 24 hours after
13. each meeting is completed.
Email:
All email pertaining to the SmartVoice Project should be
professional, free of errors, and provide brief communication.
Email should be distributed to the correct project participants in
accordance with the communication matrix above based on its
content. All attachments should be in one of the organization’s
standard software suite programs and adhere to established
company formats. If the email is to bring an issue forward then
it should discuss what the issue is, provide a brief background
on the issue, and provide a recommendation to correct the issue.
The Project Manager should be included on any email
pertaining to the SmartVoice Project.
Informal Communications:
While informal communication is a part of every project and is
necessary for successful project completion, any issues,
concerns, or updates that arise from informal discussion
between team members must be communicated to the Project
Manager so the appropriate action may be taken.Cost
Management Plan
The Cost Management Plan clearly defines how the costs on a
project will be managed throughout the project’s lifecycle. It
sets the format and standards by which the project costs are
measured, reported, and controlled. Working within the cost
management guidelines is imperative for all project team
members to ensure successful completion of the project. These
guidelines may include which level of the WBS cost accounts
will be created in and the establishment of acceptable variances.
The Cost Management Plan:
· Identifies who is responsible for managing costs
· Identifies who has the authority to approve changes to the
14. project or its budget
· How cost performance is quantitatively measured and reported
upon
· Report formats, frequency and to whom they are presented
For complex or large projects the Cost Management Plan may
be included as an appendix to the Project Management Plan or
as a separate, stand-alone document. We have a detailed Cost
Management Plan template available on our website.
The Project Manager will be responsible for managing and
reporting on the project’s cost throughout the duration of the
project. The Project Manager will present and review the
project’s cost performance during the monthly project status
meeting. Using earned value calculations, the Project Manager
is responsible for accounting for cost deviations and presenting
the Project Sponsor with options for getting the project back on
budget. All budget authority and decisions, to include budget
changes, reside with the SmartVoice Project Sponsor.
For the SmartVoice Project, control accounts will be created at
the fourth level of the WBS which is where all costs and
performance will be managed and tracked. Financial
performance of the SmartVoice Project will be measured
through earned value calculations pertaining to the project’s
cost accounts. Work started on work packages will grant that
work package with 50% credit; whereas, the remaining 50% is
credited upon completion of all work defined in that work
package. Costs may be rounded to the nearest dollar and work
hours rounded to the nearest whole hour.
Cost and Schedule Performance Index (CPI and SPI
respectively) will be reported on a monthly basis by the Project
Manager to the Project Sponsor. Variances of 10% or +/- 0.1 in
the cost and schedule performance indexes will change the
status of the cost to yellow or cautionary. These will be
reported and if it’s determined that there is no or minimal
impact on the project’s cost or schedule baseline then there may
15. be no action required. Cost variances of 20%, or +/- 0.2 in the
cost and schedule performance indexes will change the status of
the cost to red or critical. These will be reported and require
corrective action from the Project Manager in order to bring the
cost and/or schedule performance indexes back in line with the
allowable variance. Any corrective actions will require a
project change request and be must approved by the CCB before
it can be implemented.
Earned value calculations will be compiled by the Project
Manager and reported at the monthly project status meeting. If
there are indications that these values will approach or reach the
critical stage before a subsequent meeting, the Project Manager
will communicate this to the Project Sponsor immediately.
work Management Plan
The Work Management plan describes how work, deliverables,
documents, and contingency will be managed on your project.
Separate sub-sections needed here for Deliverables Management
(including how you will identify competed deliverables and who
will sign-off, Document Management (including where
documents will be stored and who will have access to them),
and Contingency.Project Scope Management Plan
It is important that the approach to managing the projects’
scope be clearly defined and documented in detail. Failure to
clearly establish and communicate project scope can result in
delays, unnecessary work, failure to achieve deliverables, cost
overruns, or other unintended consequences. This section
provides a summary of the Scope Management Plan in which it
addresses the following:
· Who has authority and responsibility for scope management
· How the scope is defined (i.e. Scope Statement, WBS, WBS
Dictionary, Statement of Work, etc.)
· How the scope is measured and verified (i.e. Quality
16. Checklists, Scope Baseline, Work Performance Measurements,
etc.)
· The scope change process (who initiates, who authorizes, etc.)
· Who is responsible for accepting the final project deliverable
and approves acceptance of project scope
We have a detailed Scope Management Plan available on our
website which can be included as an appendix to the Project
Management Plan for larger or more complex projects. Be sure
to review it and determine if it's necessary for managing your
project.
Scope management for the SmartVoice Project will be the sole
responsibility of the Project Manager. The scope for this
project is defined by the Scope Statement, Work Breakdown
Structure (WBS) and WBS Dictionary. The Project Manager,
Sponsor, and Stakeholders will establish and approve
documentation for measuring project scope which includes
deliverable quality checklists and work performance
measurements.
Proposed scope changes may be initiated by the Project
Manager, Stakeholders or any member of the project team. All
change requests will be submitted to the Project Manager who
will then evaluate the requested scope change. Upon acceptance
of the scope change request the Project Manager will submit the
scope change request to the Change Control Board and Project
Sponsor for acceptance. Upon approval of scope changes by the
Change Control Board and Project Sponsor the Project Manager
will update all project documents and communicate the scope
change to all stakeholders. Based on feedback and input from
the Project Manager and Stakeholders, the Project Sponsor is
responsible for the acceptance of the final project deliverables
and project scope.
The Project Sponsor is responsible for formally accepting the
17. project’s final deliverable. This acceptance will be based on a
review of all project documentation, testing results, beta trial
results, and completion of all tasks/work packages and product
functionality.Project Monitoring Strategies
This section provides a general framework for the approach
which will be taken to monitor the project. An overall summary
of monitoring the project should be provided along with a
separate sub-section for each of the following and description of
how they will be monitored during your project: Schedule,
Budget, Critical Path, Resource levels, Change requests, and
Scope CreepQuality Management Plan
This section discusses how quality management will be used to
ensure that the deliverables for the project meet a formally
established standard of acceptance. All project deliverables
should be defined in order to provide a foundation and
understanding of the tasks at hand and what work must be
planned. Quality management is the process by which the
organization not only completes the work, but completes the
work to an acceptable standard. Without a thorough Quality
Management Plan, work may be completed in a substandard or
unacceptable manner. This section should include quality roles
and responsibilities, quality control, quality assurance, and
quality monitoring.
For larger or more complex projects, the Quality Management
Plan may be included as an appendix or separate document. A
detailed Quality Management Plan is available for use on our
website.
All members of the SmartVoice project team will play a role in
quality management. It is imperative that the team ensures that
work is completed at an adequate level of quality from
individual work packages to the final project deliverable. The
following are the quality roles and responsibilities for the
SmartVoice Project:
The Project Sponsor is responsible for approving all quality
standards for the SmartVoice Project. The Project Sponsor will
18. review all project tasks and deliverables to ensure compliance
with established and approved quality standards. Additionally,
the Project Sponsor will sign off on the final acceptance of the
project deliverable.
The Project Manager is responsible for quality management
throughout the duration of the project. The Project Manager is
responsible for implementing the Quality Management Plan and
ensuring all tasks, processes, and documentation are compliant
with the plan. The Project Manager will work with the project’s
quality specialists to establish acceptable quality standards.
The Project Manager is also responsible for communicating and
tracking all quality standards to the project team and
stakeholders.
The Quality Specialists are responsible for working with the
Project Manager to develop and implement the Quality
Management Plan. Quality Specialists will recommend tools
and methodologies for tracking quality and standards to
establish acceptable quality levels. The Quality Specialists will
create and maintain Quality Control and Assurance Logs
throughout the project.
The remaining member of the project team, as well as the
stakeholders will be responsible for assisting the Project
Manager and Quality Specialists in the establishment of
acceptable quality standards. They will also work to ensure that
all quality standards are met and communicate any concerns
regarding quality to the Project Manager.
Quality control for the SmartVoice Project will utilize tools and
methodologies for ensuring that all project deliverables comply
with approved quality standards. To meet deliverable
requirements and expectations, we must implement a formal
process in which quality standards are measured and accepted.
The Project Manager will ensure all quality standards and
19. quality control activities are met throughout the project. The
Quality Specialists will assist the Project Manager in verifying
that all quality standards are met for each deliverable. If any
changes are proposed and approved by the Project Sponsor and
CCB, the Project Manager is responsible for communicating the
changes to the project team and updating all project plans and
documentation.
Quality assurance for the SmartVoice Project will ensure that
all processes used in the completion of the project meet
acceptable quality standards. These process standards are in
place to maximize project efficiency and minimize waste. For
each process used throughout the project, the Project Manager
will track and measure quality against the approved standards
with the assistance of the Quality Specialists and ensure all
quality standards are met. If any changes are proposed and
approved by the Project Sponsor and CCB, the Project Manager
is responsible for communicating the changes to the project
team and updating all project plans and documentation.
Risk Management Plan
This section provides a general description for the approach
taken to identify and manage the risks associated with the
project. It should be a short paragraph or two summarizing the
approach to risk management on this project. This section also
includes a table with identification of Internal and External
Risks.
Since risk management is a science in itself, we have many risk
management templates available on our website. Look for the
detailed Risk Management Plan, Risk Register along with
templates for performing a risk assessment meeting.
The approach for managing risks for the SmartVoice Project
includes a methodical process by which the project team
identifies, scores, and ranks the various risks. Every effort will
be made to proactively identify risks ahead of time in order to
implement a mitigation strategy from the project’s onset. The
20. most likely and highest impact risks were added to the project
schedule to ensure that the assigned risk managers take the
necessary steps to implement the mitigation response at the
appropriate time during the schedule. Risk managers will
provide status updates on their assigned risks in the bi-weekly
project team meetings, but only when the meetings include their
risk’s planned timeframe.
Upon the completion of the project, during the closing process,
the project manager will analyze each risk as well as the risk
management process. Based on this analysis, the project
manager will identify any improvements that can be made to the
risk management process for future projects. These
improvements will be captured as part of the lessons learned
knowledge base.
Risk Register
Provide the Risk register for the project here.Staffing
Management Plan
Discuss how you plan to staff the project. This section should
include discussion on matrixed or projectized organizational
structure depending on which is being used for this project. This
section should also include how resources will be procured and
managed as well as the key resources needed for the project.
The SmartVoice Project will consist of a matrix structure with
support from various internal organizations. All work will be
performed internally. Staffing requirements for the SmartVoice
Project include the following:
Project Manager (1 position) – responsible for all management
for the SmartVoice Project. The Project Manager is responsible

the appropriate functional manager before the resource may
begin any project work. The project team will not be co-located
for this project and all resources will remain in their current
workspace.
Resources
Include a List as part of your project plan. The resource List is
retrieved from your Project Schedule and identifies Internal and
External resources needed for the project and the
times/durations they'll be needed. Some resources may be
needed for the entire length of the project while others may only
be required for a portion of the project. This information must
be agreed to by the Project Sponsor and Functional Managers
prior to beginning the project.
The SmartVoice Project will require all project team members
for the entire duration of the project although levels of effort
23. will vary as the project progresses. The Project is scheduled to
last one year with standard 40 hour work weeks. If a project
team member is not required for a full 40 hour work week at
any point during the project, their efforts outside of the
SmartVoice Project will be at the discretion of their Functional
Manager.
Budget
This section contains the Budget for the project upon which cost
management will be based. The project will use earned value
metrics to track and manage costs and the Budget provides the
basis for the tracking, reporting, and management of costs. The
Labor budget cost comes from running a report in your MS
Project schedule file after assigning an hourly rate to each
resource

PROJECT PROPOSAL - BOB EVANS FARMS, INC.
ROLLING OUT OF A NEW PRODUCT/SERVICE BY BOB
EVANS FARMS INC. 4
Project Proposal
New Product/Service - Bob Evans Farms, Inc.
Twanna Perkins
PM 586 – Week 1
Professor Barbara Geller
February 22, 2016
Introduction
Bob Evans Farms, Inc. was established and formed as a
company of restaurants on May 30th, 1918 by the founder and
owner, Bob Evans in Sugar Ridge, Ohio. The restaurants are
known for their country-style outlook badge. The legendary
restaurant started and began its operations and functions as a
small diner that was engaged in the making of delicious
sausages that was produced from hogs in the Bob Evans` large
26. agricultural farm. The sausages have over the years become the
traditional trademark of Bob Evans Farms, Inc. (Ohio History
Central, nd).
Over the years, the company has profitably grown and
profitably expanded into a full-service restaurant company and
incorporation. The incorporation boats of 567 restaurants and
has licensed service operators in 19 States in the country. The
incorporation has also expanded its sausage sector to include
the production, marketing and distribution of pork sausages and
other microwavable refrigerated and frozen food options and
food alternatives under the trademark and company name Bob
Evans. Over the decades, the strategic management of the
incorporation has split the major operations and functions of the
large incorporation into two segments- Bob Evans Restaurants
and Bob Evans Foods. The restaurant section is involved in the
provision of different ranges of breakfast, lunch and dinner food
options and alternatives to its large clientele and customer base.
Additionally, the restaurant offers dine-in and carryout services
in their bid to attract families in their family-friendly strategies
and policies.
On the other hand, the Bob Evans Foods segment is involved in
the production, marketing and distribution of wholesome retail
food options and alternatives (New York Times, 2008). This
essay assignment sets to present an analysis of the project plans
by the strategic management to roll out iPad and tablet eMenus
as the incorporation expands its technological capacity into the
online sector to increase its market share and consumer market
by tapping into the online market.
Introducing iPad/tablet eMenus
This era of advanced technology has most business
organizations expanding into the online platforms in a bid to
increase and expand their market share. Bob Evans Farms, Inc.
has not been left behind in this development. This is in line
with the incorporation`s objectives and targets to expand the
business operations and functions into the online platform
through the development of eMenus that can be accessed from
27. anywhere on an iPad or tablet. This will enable the large
clientele base of the incorporation’s numerous products and
services to access the listings online and make selections and
bookings. This will greatly improve on the operations of
delivery of the various food alternative and options to
customers who require delivery at their places of work or
homes. Additionally, this will give the strategic management of
the incorporation to present an aesthetic presentation and
picturesque view of the breakfast, lunch and dinner offerings
provided by the restaurant segment which is likely to increase
impulse buying thus boosting the level of sales and hence
revenue earned by the incorporation.
This proposal is set to receive a major boost attributable to the
availability of large organizational data with regards to
consumer choices, tastes, and preferences and hence an efficient
and effective prediction and forecasting of such needs in the
provision of restaurant services in a bid to meet the overall
objectives and goals of the incorporation.
