Case Study
Instructions to Student
These case studies are hypothetical situations which will not require you to have
access to a workplace, although your past and present workplace experiences may
help with the responses you provide. You will be expected to encounter similar
situations to these in future as you work in a project team environment.
In the real world you are likely to encounter the situation where you enter a
project, taking over from another project manager. The documentation that is
handed over to you is not necessarily up to scratch, and there could be serious
issues with the project. This assessment captures that real life scenario.
The case studies are the first part of dealing with “multiple complex projects”
required in all the units of this subject. The other assessment covering this
requirement is the practical assessment. When you have completed the case
studies you will be able to commence the practical assessment which covers the
generic skills needed to function as an effective project team member. This
assessment on the other hand covers the application of the underpinning
knowledge and background theory.
You will have access to a virtual company called Awesome Landscapes

Budget The total budget estimated for the Cascade project is $650,000
Assumptions,
Constraints, Risks:
Quality is one of the most important things that have to be considered for
the project to attract more numbers of consumers globally. According to
the approved council planning the landscape and buildings should be
constructed. Not only this but also proper change control measures also
needed to be considered by the project owners to make sure that the
project is meeting its objectives. Apart from these building regulations are
also all to be maintained by the project managers.
For this project triple project constraints have been chosen including time,
scope and budget. As per requirement the project is needed to be

Subject : Application for permission
I would like to bring your attention on the development of Cascade Peak Chalets
landscaping project. According to the project requirement and other aspects the
project will be completed within a year with an estimated budget of $650,000. Our
organization has been reassigned to undertake the project and accomplish that. In
order to support the resort and building construction mainly for enhancing the
tourism throughout in both summer and winter season our company has been
assigned. For completing the project we need social, economical and environmental
support as well from government. We are expecting that in order to avoid all the legal
risks the government support is very much important. Local commercial forestry
plantation support is the other one what we need from the government. Large scale
commercial support is required by the government. We need economical support
from your end so that we can meet the project objectives and project goals. We also
need commercial support for developing and designing the project. After the
implementation of each of the phase the outcome should be tested accordingly. It is
mandatory for the project manager to achieve the expected outcome from each of
the phase.
Though, we are expecting to obtain commercial revenue as soon as it will be
implemented but at the same time we are also expecting new contractors to be
procured. PMBOK project management methodology will be followed by the project
manager to implement the objectives. We need your support and legal documents so
that we achieve the reach the success line of meeting the demand of the consumers.
We shall be highly grateful if you grant our request.
Thanks and regards

Assessment task 2: Undertake project planning and
design processes
Information to students:
In this task you will demonstrate your skills and knowledge in being able to undertake
project planning and design processes.
2.1. Explain the purpose and importance of Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) when
managing a project?
In order to manage and implement any project the project manager should design and
develop a work break down structure at the very initiation phase of the project. It will help
the project manager to breakdown a large project into smaller segments. It is difficult for
the project manager to manage a complex and large project easily. Therefore, based on
the project complexity a large project needs to be subdivided into smaller activities. For
each of those activity resources are to be managed. It is their responsibility to accomplish
the assigned job roles within estimated budget and time. Apart from this, WBS visualizes
the entire project scope and shows all the project control points along with the
milestones.
2.2. Refer to your own project and develop a WBS to disaggregate your project objectives
into achievable project deliverables.

2.4. Refer to your chosen project and analyse the project management functions. You are
now required to identify interdependencies and impacts of constraints e.g. if you are
supposed to seal the driveway and there are still construction vehicles on the driveway,
then this will delay the task. Identify any other interdependencies and impacts of
constraints and explain how you would manage it.
Most often the project constraints or limitations that are discussed and managed by the
project managers include time, scope and budget. It is mandatory for the project manager
to manage all three of these components accurately. The success of any project is always
defined with the help of effective project practices. In other words, WBS and effective
project management determines the success of any project. If the project time exceeds the

2.6. Refer to the project plan above and write a report on how you as the Project Manager
are going to establish designated mechanisms to monitor and control planned activity as
per the project plan. Include a diagram or flowchart in your report
Project monitoring and control are the two most important [phases of project development.
In these phases the actual progress of the project can be tracked by the project manager.
In other words, project monitoring s referred to as a process that helps to track all the
project relevant metrics. The project management metrics include the performance of the
project team members ad duration allotted for the project activities. Professional
identification on these aspects will deliberately deliver the corrective project outcomes. It
will also make sure that the project is within its budget, time and scope. In most cases it
happens that the actual project and the planned project outcome show different resultant.
In order to avoid the discriminated outcome from the planned project and actual project
the project manager needs to use monitor the project. It will oversee all project activities to
ensure that the project managers are implementing the project as per the preliminary
project plan.
With professional project tracking the current status of the project can also be visualized
and accordingly changes can again be brought. Before final implementation of the project
all the relevant data are to be collected by the project manager and project associates.
Based on the current status of the project the data needs to be gathered. Activities are
scheduled phases within a planned project that has a distinct beginning and end as well.
Any project activity is comprises of different tasks. Each of those tasks is to be completed
successfully so that it can meet the project objectives. Again, several numbers of tasks can
be all combined together to form the summary project activity. Based on complexity each
of the designated tasks has to be completed by the assigned project resource. On the other
hand, the initiation or end of any activity can also be measured with the help of the project
constraints or the dependencies among the project activities.
Whenever the project managers make important decision before the final verification of
data this approach stands very much helpful because the decisions are taken without any
evidence or small number of evidence. In order to avoid wastage of budget, time and
resources the monitoring is needful. The project monitoring outcome will give answer about
whether the project has been carried out as per the plan or not. It will help to resolve the

3.2 Refer back to the project and explain how you could as the Project Manager maintain
established links to align project objectives with organisational objectives throughout the
project?
Tasks are typically considered as a wellspring of an association to accomplish the key
arrangement. A project can convey at least one key destinations of a firm. A few
precedents of these vital plans are; expanding market request, meeting client demands,
manage lawful necessity or some sort of mechanical progression. In a few associations all
undertakings are composed by a unified task administration office and in a few
associations projects are finished by individual task supervisors who work crosswise over
various utilitarian gatherings of the firm. Along these lines hierarchical configuration
likewise influences the project, program or portfolio administration. A considerable
measure of creators have perceived that projects are the transitory associations that have
restricted time, spending plan and destinations. In any case, the conventional undertaking
administration is task arranged. Thusly in a transitory association project administrators
discover it hard to oversee inside (project itself) and remotely with the association.
Activities once in a while bomb because of the specialized issues however significantly
flop due to hierarchical difficulties. It tends to be inferred that associations utilize extends
as an approach to actualize procedure. Thusly the task execution influences the

authoritative technique. Unique associations have diverse methods for loving the
authoritative technique with the projects. This investigation report will dive further in the
speculations and practices as to connecting of authoritative technique with projects.
3.3 Read the scenario below and complete the task.
Scenario
Andrew Low who is the site supervisor is not getting along with Harry Smith who is the
landscaper. They cannot seem to agree on some decisions. They had a massive argument
and Harry Smith is threatening to walk off the job. You really need all hands on deck as
the project is nearing completion.
Explain how Sam Ng who is the Project manager can handle this situation and resolve the
conflict.
While administrating any project conflict is that issue which cannot be avoided. The
chances of conflict in the data advancement project framework are estimated to be high
in most cases. It mainly happens due to involvement of different people from different
project groups. Considering the contrasts in esteem, needs, requirements, desires
assets, identities the conflicts among the project groups can be identified. In order to
manage the struggles, project administration stands very much helpful. Not only this but
also other’s association and individual support will help to avoid intra project conflicts.

Assessment task 4: Manage project finalisation
Assessor instructions:
Information to students:
This assessment task will allow you to demonstrate your understanding and ability to manage
the project finalisation process.
4.1. Research project control and in your own words explain your understanding of project
controls and why is it important.
Maybe the most imperative piece of task administration is that of control. When the choice
has been taken to dispatch and actualize a project, the undertaking chief must accept the
accountability for guaranteeing that every individual included finishes their allotted
assignments with the end goal to in this manner ensure that the task keeps running as
indicated by plan.
The idea of undertaking control is exceptionally straightforward: a task is made with
specific focuses in the wake of concentrate the assets accessible and attracting up a
calendar to achieve those objectives. Control is the thing that guarantees oversight of
these plans, guaranteeing that no colleague goes amiss from the course set. The fulfilment
of control-related assignments will guarantee accomplishment of the objectives as they
were characterized in the arranging stage.
Subsequent to arranging a project, it is prescribed to execute a control framework. The
fundamental necessity in the first place will be for the task to be completely characterized
and affirmed by the guiding council or investors' gathering and, as fitting, by the supporter
of the activities to be done.
4.2. Explain what steps will you take as the Project Manager to maintain control over your
project to ensure timely completion, records are maintained and updated, conversations
and meetings recorded,, certificates and licence to be obtained on time, progress reports
and cost blow outs to be reported.
These lines of activity will demonstrate the costs, the extension for the venture and the
timetable to be pursued for meeting the objectives:
Cost base: this indicates the expenses to be acquired by the undertaking, with an
appropriation after some time that will be intelligent with fulfilment of the assignments
after some time. This is extremely valuable when wishing to contrast gauges and genuine

expense.
Calendar base: a timetable with the objectives set for each phase of the venture will be
made.
Extension base: shaped by the different exercises that contain the task and that will
empower the deliverable to be created. This is reflected in the WBS that was endorsed. The
extension base permits the advancement of every action and every deliverable to be
known.
4.3. You are required by Cascade Peak Hotel Pty Ltd to give progress report on agreed
timelines containing the progress of the project, problems identified with the project and
alleviation of the problems, costs involved to eliminate the issues, planned variations if
required. Explain how you are going to communicate and submit the status as per the
agreed timelines.
Social manageability in development can be upgraded through limit building and
strengthening of partners, taking into consideration a more important investment in
building process while adding to the improvement of human capital. The usage of a
participatory methodology in a building procedure is not just approved as far as fulfilling
the parts of value and decency. It is likewise approved by building up the basic mindfulness
inside the general public about dependable ways of life and decisions. The essential
expanding of the task group by including the customer and other intrigued and influenced
parties, regularly alluded to as "individuals outside the venture", in undertaking arranging
and basic leadership faces various boundaries that emerge out of current development
practice.

4.4. Read the scenario below and complete this task.
Scenario
During completion of driveways, you find that additional drainage is required because of
grading to comply with Council regulation. The additional drain pipes and labour required
would be part of a variation. The variation would have an impact on finalising the
driveway, would have an impact on the final cost and could delay the project.
Design a variation form, explain the problem and explain how the problem can be
resolved, the duration for the repair and the cost involved. Discuss the variation with the
stakeholders (your colleagues in class) and get the approval and the form signed off.
Attach it to this assessment as evidence.
It can be said that, for avoiding project changes project change administration is not the
process that is applied. In order to meet the consumer’s expectation and stakeholder’s
demand it is important for the project manager and project team members to arrange the
change management program absolute professionally considering the focal components,
baseline degree and spending plan. The role of the project manager is to assemble all
data alongside taking the suggestions from the administration.
4.5. For a project to be successful, protect yourself from any legal challenges and meet
project objectives, it is important to keep track of any conversations, meetings, progress
reports in chronological order in such a way that you can easily find any information
required. You are now required to develop a progress log for your project.
In globalized business environment, vital reasoning and advanced corporate
methodologies are very much important to be considered by the project administrators.
Deliberate aggressiveness and strategic expression will help to accomplish the
business goals and objectives. Open conversation is crucial among the project manager
and project team members to share the creative views of each of the project
associates. Progress report will allow the project manager to track and monitor the
project updates and current project status. It will help to actualize the project activities.
There are four dimensions depending on which the system can be arranged. These
dimensions include corporate dimension, key business level, working dimension and
practical dimension.

Assessment task 5: Manage project finalisation
Information to students:
This assessment task will allow you to demonstrate your understanding and ability to manage
the project finalisation process.
4.1. Refer to project governance models and summarise project governance.
Project governance is referred to as an approach which is used very much loosely in the project practices. It has
been defined that the reason behind the failure of any project in most cases occurs due to failure in project
governance. In other words the root cause of project failure is unsuccessfully executed project. This is an
oversight function which is aligned with the governance model of the organization itself. The project
environment should be understood properly by the project manager along with the roles, responsibilities,
stakeholder’s engagement and communication. Longevity, monitoring and control are the three main actors of
project governance those are to be followed by the project manger to accomplish the needs.
4.2. Refer to project plan you developed previously and outline the life cycle stages,
phases and structures relevant to the industry. In your answer, you must also draw a
diagram to illustrate the project life cycle.
In order to implement cascade landscaping project the project development phases those
are to be followed by the project manager and the project team members include
initiation, planning and designing, execution, monitoring and control and project closure.
After analysing the project details it has been found that the project will be completed
within a year and the phases that are to be followed accordingly by the project manager
include pre building, building support and planting and landscaping. It is the role of the
project manager and project team members to follow each of the activity accurately to
meet the project objective and preliminarily set project goals.
The project management methodology to be followed by the project manager is PMBOK
methodology. Before design and development of the project in the pre building phase five
more sub actions are followed. Based on the project requirement the landscaping
equipments are needed to be delivered by the project resource manager. In order to build
a more attractive environment to attract new customers for tourism purposes, all the
needful landscaping equipments are to be delivered. The previous company was
bankrupted and due to this reason they failed to accomplish the cascade project. In order
to fulfil this requirement the project manager needs to collect all the required tools from
the Awesome landscaping company headquarter. These collected tools should be
delivered to the location or site. Next the glasshouses should be delivered and erected
accordingly. In this phase the glasshouses should be sourced and purchased by the
project head. The glasshouses should be transported to the site or location. Then on the
site the glass house should be constructed by the project manager based on the project
demand. Then all the needful vehicles are to be delivered onsite to fulfil the project
purpose. In this phase, based on the project requirements the budget, time and scope
should be prepared. It is the aim to accomplish project delivery needs successfully. The

project management body of knowledge is a collection of project processes practices,
terms as well as guidelines those are accepted as the benchmark for project
implementation. For any project that is related to contract management will be
successfully implemented if the project manager of that specific project follows the
PMBOK project guidelines. After purchasing the road gravels those are deposited to the
nominated site or locations. At the last sub phase of pre building activity the granite
boulders are purchased and delivered to the located. The next phase of his cascade
project development is building support. In this phase the delivery approaches are
monitored and controlled accordingly. The last phase of this project is planting and
landscaping. This phase starts with dismantling of the green houses and removal of the
dismantled disposals or the waste building materials. Moreover, after outlining the project
details it is determined that whatever planned in the project planning phase will be
executed and monitored until it completes. In the project closure phase, all the project
activities will be finished with a stakeholder signoff.

4.3. When you were developing the project plan and execution of the project, explain what
organisational documentation did you use for recording strategies and goals for
integration processes.
In order to record the strategies and project goals for integrating all the project
processes the organizational documentation that has to be followed by the project
manager is project progress report document.

Project Closure and Post Implementation Report Template & Guide
Purpose
The Project Closure and Post Implementation Report (PCPIR) is presented to the Executive at
the end of the project and provides a final assessment of the project. In particular, the PCPIR
details the level of success of the project and if, and in what ways, the project has achieved
expected benefits following implementation.
The Report generally captures information obtained from a post implementation review
meeting held at the end of the project.
What should the Project Closure and Post Implementation Report cover?
The key areas that the PCPIR should cover are:
1. an end project report, covering achievement of project objectives, performance against
targets and tolerances, and effect of any changes on the project and project business
case
2. an outline of any post-project review processes to be adopted
3. follow-on actions
4. lessons learned.
5.
Key considerations in developing the Project Closure and Post Implementation Report
When developing the PCPIR, the following should be observed:
 The Report must describe any abnormal situations which arose during the project,
together with their impact
 The Report must specify follow-on actions for all issues which have not been closed at the
end of the project
 Any appointed Project Assurance roles should agree with the Report.
