Week 6 Assignment: Project Tasks and Timeline Rationale

Jennifer Lowe

Professor: Carlos J. Febry

BUS 375: Project Management

August 10, 2021

Part 1: Overview of the Project

This building project includes a thorough plan to convert a specific area into a fully practical and attractive environment. The main aims are to carry out a smooth building process, adhere to a rigorously planned schedule, and create an excellent finished product that is in keeping with the client's vision. Beginning on January 13, 2023, and ending on June 28, 2023, the project lasts 122 days. In order to maintain a systematic approach, the project is broken up into distinct phases. The projects scope and objectives will be accurately specified during the first Planning Activities phase, and a project budget will be developed within a 22-day timeframe. A thorough Construction Plan covering 122 days has been painstakingly designed to cover many aspects. The project's objective set will be met by strategic resource allocation that makes use of qualified workers and economically sourced resources. Financial decisions will be influenced by budgetary factors that will be described throughout a 2-day period. The construction will proceed more smoothly if all relevant licenses are obtained in 15 days (Fewings & Henjewele, 2019).

Critical processes including demolition and site preparation, plumbing and electrical work, structural modifications, and outside work activities are among the 30 days allotted for construction activities. Insulation and Drywall Installation, Plumbing and Electrical Fixtures, Flooring Installation, and Painting and Finishing are among the interior work activities that span 32 days. According to the project's all-encompassing vision, Ground Work Activities, which include Landscaping and Outdoor Features, will be finished in 10 days. The completion will be solidified by Final Acceptance, Inspection and Touch-Ups, Client Walkthrough and Approval, guaranteeing that every aspect has been flawlessly carried out. The main goal is to realize the client's vision by creating an environment that seamlessly combines aesthetics and utility. The project seeks to offer not just a finished physical building but also an expression of the client's ambitions, expressing quality in every detail, by following to the precisely planned timeframe and resource allocation.

Part 2: Explanation of Tasks, Timeline and Method Used

The above-described building project involves a wide range of tasks, from planning and securing permits to receiving final client approval. This 122-day project is meticulously divided into several discrete phases, each with a clearly defined timeframe and a set of particular duties. The first phase, dubbed "Construction Plan," will last 122 days, from January 13, 2023, to June 28, 2023. Each task needed to complete the project successfully falls under this phase. In addition, it is separated into two main categories: "Planning Activities" and "Construction Activities." The project's goals are laid out under "Planning Activities" throughout the course of 22 days, from January 13 to February 10, 2023. The foundation for succeeding actions is laid by clearly stating the project goals. An important component of the project, the budget is created in a condensed 2-day period from January 17 to January 18, 2023. The following 2 days, from January 19 to January 20, 2023, are used to create a comprehensive project timeline. 15 days, from January 23 to February 10, 2023, are allotted for the timely acquisition of relevant permits, a crucial prerequisite.

Following then, from February 13 to March 22, 2023, there will be a 30-day period known as "Construction Activities" that entails a variety of jobs. "Demolition and Site Preparation" is the first stage of this phase, and it has a 10-day start date range of February 13, 2023, to February 24, 2023. Between February 27 and March 8, 2023, plumbing and electrical work is scheduled for 8 days. This phase is completed with structural adjustments, which last 12 days, from March 9 to March 22, 2023. The 20-day period from March 27 to April 20, 2023, known as the "Transition to "Exterior Work Activities," includes a number of crucial responsibilities. There are 5 days available for roof replacement, from March 27 to March 31, 2023. Installation of windows and doors follows, lasting seven days from April 3 to April 10, 2023. Between April 11 and April 20, 2023, there will be 8 days set aside for siding and exterior finishing.

Important duties are included in the following phase, "Interior Work Activities," which spans 32 days from April 24 to May 31, 2023. Between April 24 and May 5, 2023, insulation and drywall work will take ten days. The next 9 days, from May 8 to May 17, 2023, are scheduled for plumbing and electrical fittings. From May 18 to May 24, 2023, a total of 7 days are allotted for flooring installation. The final six days of this phase—painting and finishing—are from May 25 to May 31, 2023. The "Ground Work Activities" phase, which lasts for 10 days from June 5 to June 16, 2023, includes foundation work, landscaping, and outdoor features. The project's "Final Acceptance," scheduled for 8 days from June 19 to June 28, 2023, will mark its completion. Between June 19 and June 23, 2023, the final inspection, touch-ups, client walkthrough, and approval are completed within 5 days.

The precise use of tried-and-true project management approaches resulted in the thorough determination of the project's job completion dates. The Critical Path Method (CPM) and the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT), in conjunction with top-down and bottom-up estimation methods, were essential to this undertaking. These strategies worked together to create a solid project timeline that ensured logical job sequencing while accounting for uncertainty and resource constraints. The best order of tasks necessary for attaining the project's overarching goals in the shortest amount of time was determined using the Critical Path Method (CPM). The CPM approach identified the critical route, or the longest job sequence, which definitively defined the project's minimum time by examining task dependencies and durations. In order to deal with work time uncertainties, the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) was implemented concurrently.

PERT provided a more precise projection of project completion dates by adding a probabilistic component by including three-time estimates (optimistic, pessimistic, and most likely) for each activity. This method has proven especially useful for activities that have a high degree of inherent variability (Ba’lts et al., 2020). Importantly, task durations and start dates were shaped to correspond with resource availability by using both top-down and bottom-up estimate techniques. Top-down estimates entailed taking into account the overall project schedule and then decomposing it into discrete jobs. This method reduced the danger of delays brought on by resource shortages by allowing for high-level resource allocation and assisting in aligning the project timeline with practical limits. Contrarily, bottom-up estimation examined the specifics of each task, taking into account the accessibility of competent people, supplies, and equipment. This granular approach ensured that task durations were anchored in real-world resource limitations (DX, 2018).

Part 3: Risk Factors and MitigationTop of Form

There are a number of potential hazards and difficulties that could occur throughout the construction project's execution and affect the timeframe and successful completion. To reduce the impact of these risks, it is critical to proactively identify them and put good mitigation procedures in place. One potential risk is the time it takes to get the required permits, which can cause a bottleneck at the start of the project. The project team will communicate with the appropriate authorities well in advance and quickly submit all necessary papers in order to reduce this risk. The timeframe has also been given a buffer period to account for any potential delays in the permitting procedure. Unexpected site conditions during demolition and site preparation present another risk. Before beginning demolition, comprehensive site s
