Expectations of the stakeholders and customer need to be in line with the project objectives and deliverables. During project initiation, it is critical that those expectations are outlined in approved baselines so performance can be measured throughout the project. With the utilization of established baselines, performance can be measured using earned value management and reported accordingly. This will also ensure that contractual requirements are being maintained, which is critical in today’s competitive environment. This will also assist in creating the scope, budget and schedule baselines so performance throughout the project can be measured to ensure performance is meeting everyone’s needs and expectations. This paper will outline the re-carpeting project and further establish viability verification, threshold establishment, overhead costs and management oversight. Finally, using Earned Value Management (EVM) can provide all key personnel a snapshot of where the project stands at any given point during the entire life cycle.

Hospitality Management is a difficult and competitive market, and any lack in customer service can result in defecting customers or the termination of a relationship between a customer and a service provider. In this paper we will look at Hilton a company that has continually ranked amongst the top ranking hotels and continues to improve. Hilton’s customer service ranks as one of the top hospitality providers in the United States. We will look at the history of how Hilton came to be the name brand it is today and some of their process the used to narrow the customer service gaps such as Hilton Honors, the Hiltons Reservation Customer Care, and RESMAX. We will look at how they look at how Hilton manages the customer expectations through the use of employee training and their decreased the customer service gap through employee retention. We will also look as how Hilton co-partnered with Citibank in order to offer its Hilton Honors member additional benefits in order to keep in line with the customer service that the customers have come to expect.

BACS anticipates that a majority of our clients will be building owners and property management firms contracting on behalf of building owners. BACS expects that the business’ client base will consist of commercial, industrial, and residential clientele. However, we anticipate that its secondary client base will come from the residential arena (homeowners). As time progresses, BACS may engage more complicated industrial and high-end commercial and industrial installations. The first group to be targeted is the owners of homes that are 12-15 years old and the second group is those that frequent the home improvement and construction supply stores.

The introduction of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and tools into the construction industry made a rapid revolution in this field. BIM can bring a complete digital representation of a building with a fully analyzed data. Introduction of this models are very much helpful in construction of the real building. By creating a BIM
