Project Management Plan
Introduction
There are various activities that are carried out in a project during its timeline. It is necessary
to manage all of these project activities as per the defined project guidelines and management
principles. Project Management is a discipline that provides the management and project
resources with the guidelines to effectively handle all the project areas. There are several
knowledge areas that come under the domain of project management, such as schedule
management, cost management, resource management, quality management, communication
management, and many more. The project that has been selected for this case is construction
of an indoor sports complex. The project management methodology that will be used to
manage the project activities will be Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK).
The report is a project management plan that describes the project areas of the selected
project and the details of the project management activities in each of these areas.
Project Management Approach
The project management approach for the project is Project Management Body of Knowledge
(PMBoK). According to this methodology of project management, the project management
will begin with the initiation processes. In the initiation process, the preliminary activities,
feasibility analysis, environmental studies, and project analysis will be made. The second
phase will be the planning phase of the project in which the plans around the indoor sports
complex will be made in terms of costing plan, schedule plan, resource plan, and likewise.
There will also be planning done in the areas of design of the sports complex and the
associated construction activities. The allocation of the team members for each of the project
task will be made in this phase of the project management methodology. The execution of the
management activities will be done during the construction of the sports complex covering
the foundation activities, rough carpentry, electronic rough-in, roofing, exterior finish,
insulation, drywalls, floor finishes, painting, exterior landscaping, plumbing trim, electrical
trim, interior trim, and cleaning activities (Zwikael, 2009). The management activities will
also be applied in the area of control of the project by monitoring the project progress and
reviewing the project design. The final set of activities will be covered in the closure phase.

Project Management Plan
Project Scope
The project resources will carry out the several project tasks and activities during the timeline
of the project. In the initiation procedure, the fundamental exercises, achievability
investigation, natural examinations, and task examination will be made. The second stage
will be the planning period of the task in which the plans around the indoor games complex
will be made as far as costing plan, plan, asset plan, and similarly. There will likewise be
planning done in the regions of outline of the games complex and the related development
exercises. The allotment of the colleagues for every one of the undertaking errand will be
made in this period of the task administration philosophy. The execution of the administration
exercises will be finished amid the development of the games complex covering the
establishment exercises, unpleasant carpentry, electronic harsh in, material, outside complete,
protection, drywalls, floor gets done with, painting, outside arranging, plumbing trim,
electrical trim, inside trim, and cleaning exercises. The administration exercises will likewise
be connected in the territory of control of the venture by checking the undertaking progress
and exploring the task outline. The last arrangement of exercises will be canvassed in the
closure stage (Wearne, 2014).
Project Scope Management Plan
The scope of the project will be managed using the PMBoK guidelines.
There will be a Project Manager involved with the project and the resource will carry out
internal reviews and audits during the entire lifecycle of the project. These practices and
processes will provide the ability to keep a track of the project progress as per the scope.
There will also be experts and consultants invited to track the progress and performance and
map the adherence to the estimated scope.
Earned Value Analysis (EVA) technique will be used and applied to determine the gaps in
the process of scope management. Project scope, project costs, and project schedule are the
three core project properties and attributes that need to be in sync with each other. Deviation
in any of these three properties will result in the negative implication on the other area. EVA
method will be used to assess the gaps between the estimated values of the project costs and
schedule by determining the cost variance and schedule variance (Wang, He and Zhao, 2014).
The negative values of any of these two will indicate the possible variations in the project
scope as well.
