Project Analysis : Million Dollar Deficit

The company should consider ethical aspects of the changes in original budget and actual sales/amount. The main reason behind it is the variances in materials, labor, and overhead. In addition to this, the firm should evaluate the actual variance in the materials, labor, and overhead and after that change in budgets in order to maintain business ethics and to reduce improper changes in budget that is unethical aspect of the business (Delaney & Whittington, 2012).

The CanGo organization is lacking a Project Budget. The group is disorganized and unsure if the project can afford necessary equipment and resources required to complete the project. CanGo’s project team or the project manager needs to develop a project budget, including the goal of the project budget. The project manager will use this budget to help determine if the project is on track and the budget will be used by a number of personal as a guideline to fulfill project milestones. Aspects that need to be considered and included in the project budget are employee compensation, contract services such as hardware and software, equipment and supplies, and the budget should include overhead expenses. Overhead and indirect costs allow the project to absorb part of the administrative costs of the organizations daily operations. Many software options are available on the market today, such as

My second goal would be to correct the budget balancing problems. The budget debt each year is approximately 200,00 to 300,000. To solve this problem, I would make three more adjustments in the budget expenditures. The adjustments would approximately total 250,000. I chose 250,000 because it is the average of 200,000 & 300,000. My first adjustment would go towards the capital program expenditure. Since I previously include the sewer and water system capital program expenditure into the revenue fee, I could deduct these two services from the capital program expenditure total. Doing this would reduce the capital program expenditure from 538,630 per year to 379,350 per year, leaving the budget with a 159,280 per year savings. The second adjustment would go toward public safety. I would immediately hire a new police officer, because of the police’s staff shortage. I think it is a necessity to have enough officers to maintain all shifts. Hiring more officers would help keep the streets of Opportunity safe. This is important because of the community’s profile. Opportunity consists of mostly above-average socioeconomic people and elderly people. I could see the crime rate rising in the future, due to the lack of police officers. On the other hand, I would alleviate the ideal of hiring a technician. I feel hiring a contractor on needed bases is sufficient. Why

The article, Lembo, OFA Project Deficit; Malloy Does Not, will be important to my future life. The article also connects to my current life. It connects to my future life because I live in Connecticut, and the article takes place here. If our state stops paying taxes, then we will not be able to have streets, bridges, schools, policemen, firefighters, and much more. A connection is that the governor makes all, the laws, and currently, my parents make all of the rules for me. My parents are like the government, and I am like the citizen. If the citizens don't pay taxes, or the child disobeys the rules, they get in trouble. Children can ask to do something. In the text, Lembo asks Malloy to discuss this topic. In the future we hope to not have

The idealism was directly on course with the prevailing knowledge of a professional city manager, however, fiscal stress has heightened the debate about the role of local government and has increased the conflict about scarce resources (Newell, p. 27, 2014). The appointment of an emergency manager to run the city and to help return the city to local government was received by many as overstepping the boundaries of government control. The out of control downward spiral economically for cities across the United States forced state legislatures and the governors to drastic measures to curb the downturn of cities under their leadership. The idea, which could be argued has merit to help resolve the declining revenues in these cities, has led to consequences of solving one problem, but creating a much larger

The city of Huron public works has been evaluated through a QSPM matrix to come up with several strategies that would be effective to the organization. A QSMP matrix is “an analytical technique designed to determine the relative attractiveness of feasible alternative actions. This technique comprises Stage 3 of the strategy-formulation analytical framework; it objectively indicates which alternative strategies are best” (David, David pg. 378). There were many strategies tested in the QSPM matrix to come up with the top two strategies, which are building a new water treatment plant or remodeling the current water treatment plant. In order to decide which strategy was best fitted both of the strategies were put into an EFE and an IFE matrix. The outcome of an EFE and IFE matrix, SWOT analysis, and QSPM matrix, will determine which strategy will be best to implemented for the City of Huron.
