Project Management

This is to ensure that the necessary raw materials and physical resources are available at each stage, and that the workforce on site has the right skills for the scheduled work. The project management team will need to produce a series of planning documents that can be accessed throughout the project. Each member of the project management team must know their role and responsibilities, including which sections of the workforce they will be directly managing.

The measures that were employed consist of adding directional bike lanes to the bridge, restriping the bridge combined with timed directional transition of the middle 5th lane, additional bus routes, and converting old buildings into domiciles. Although these measures have helped to improve traffic flow in the region, capital will have to be spent at a future date in order to add additional

As the world is chaotic (Djavanshir and Khorramshahgol, 2006) it is impossible to always predict the future accurately. Teller at al (2012) describes project management as balancing the “iron triangle”, where changes to any one of the planned costs, quality or scope will change the other elements. Risk management allows contingency to be put into project plans, (APM, 2012) minimising negative effects and maximising the benefits of uncertainty.

Preconstruction services began early in 2010 and several schedules and estimates were produced for early analysis. One of the biggest challenges in this period of time was determining the best strategy to construct such a large project and remove the 600,000 cubic yards of soil required. To increase the benefits of fast-tracking the construction of the garage, design was only completed to a stage required to receive preliminary permits up to the G4 level of the garage before construction began.

Projects that have insufficient recourses from the beginning will cause stress among the construction professionals. This may create a better working environment, as it will allow employees to have an adequate workload as well as a suitable amount of work responsibilities. Besides this, there is a need to clarify what is expected from each employee in his or her position. Job instructions and goals must be explicit for professionals, in order to minimize unhealthy distress and increase efficiency.

Even though the price would be lowered because of the bad weather as per the tying in price and weather policy, not everyone would still want to go away. Either it needs to be explained clearly on the website that undesirable weather will not entitle any customer to a refund or to change or cancel their booking without penalty; or the policy must be clear in whatever the company decides is fair. For example, it may state that if the weather is unpleasant can change (but not cancel) the booking to another time.

Furthermore, this essay will explain how to ensure that the proposal submitted addresses key aspects necessary for the project to be implemented in line with best practices for project management.

A maximum time variance allowance of ±15% on the project is to be allowed. Quality Audits by the Architectural Teams and engineers are to be performed at regular intervals, and all other important information must be communicated to all managers involved in progress meetings. Health and Safety must be given a considerable amount of weighting due to the fact that the process is very labour intensive and involves high powered tools and heavy machinery.
