Define each of these core project quality concepts and discuss why each is vital in planning and managing projects. Discuss how project managers can develop a quality-conscious approach to managing project activities and decisions.

A Unique Training Program at UPS Mark Colvard, a United Parcel Manager in San Ramon, California, recently faced a difficult decision. One of his drivers asked for 2 weeks off to help an ailing family member. But company rules said this driver wasn’t eligible. If Colvard went by the book, the driver would probably take the days off anyway and be fired. On the other hand, Colvard chose to give the driver time off. Although he took some heat for the decision, he also kept a valuable employee. Had Colvard been faced with this decision 6 months earlier, he says he would have gone the other way. What changed his thinking was a month he spent living in McAllen, Texas. It was part of a UPS management training experience called the Community Internship Program (CIP). During his month in McAllen, Colvard built housing for the poor, collected clothing for the Salvation Army, and worked in a drug rehab Center. Colvard gives the program credit for helping him empathize with employees facing crises…

Can you describe the tasks that make up a WBS and their distinguishing features?
Case STUDY ANALYSIS CREATION OF A NEW PROJECT Our Head of quality (that we will call Mr L.) suggested that the company needed to improve the planning and scheduling of the machining and tooling department. All companies that have machine production do this, and we already had someone scheduling this department (Mr M.), but we needed someone that could do it much more in detail and ahead of time. Eventually, the supervisor of the machining department(Mr S.) was elected to be the best person for this job, so the CEO of the company decided that Mr M. had to train Mr S. and explain the method he followed for the planning. Mr M. is known to be someone that likes to work the way he wants to work! In other words, he is not known for being someone that listens to other people’s opinion, so Mr S. (much younger) had some difficulty getting information out of Mr M. This problem had been planned. In fact, before this project started there had been at least two separate meetings, one together with…

CASE STUDY 1: A STORY OF A YOUNG GRADUATE Fadili, a young graduate from a local university had been hired as an independent contract engineer for a division that needed a short-term structural analysis confirmation. The division needed an independent confirmation to obtain financial support from the headquarters in order to continue a project. After performing his duty, Fadili discovered that there were some structural deficiencies in the project proposed by the division.

He called Anum, who was also his niece, to discuss the matter. He asked Anum to revise and change some of the information reported by Fadili. He believed that…
Part 3 LSP is under constant pressure to improve its products. In particular, reducing weight allows for better performance. LSP's design team has found a potential new supplier of the materials that make up the window frames that can significantly reduce the overall weight of the windows. The new plastic frame material is available from a supplier in Belgium. That supplier will only work under FCA terms. This will require LSP to take on new responsibilities that the existing frame supplier from Germany had performed. You have been asked to consider this potential change from a logistical perspective (both advantages and threats) and report back to the senior management team. Specifically, you have been asked to: 1. Provide a description of the potential insurance clauses that could be purchased and a recommendation on the coverage that LSP should purchase for the new Belgian plastic. 2. Provide a description of the role and function of an international freight forwarder and a…
