Differentiate methods of project negotiation, conflict management, and stakeholder engagement across projects consisting of differing technology standards and asset lifecycles.The main difference between a private entity and a public/ government one is inownership; government organizations are owned by the government on behalf of the citizens, while private organizations are owned by private citizens and its main objective is to make profits and value to the shareholders, whereas government organizations seek to add value to the entire citizenry, usually, not necessarily through making profits. Government organizations must be run in a transparent manner, unlike private organizations that can have higher levels of opacity in how it is run. As such, the procurement for services and products in government organizations follows a more rigorous process, controlled by laws and regulations. For private organizations, procurement is done based on the organizations strategic interests, and may even involve direct sourcing. Contract negotiation in government organizations is therefore more drawn out and requires high level skills to ensure objectives are met and that the citizens, who fund such projects through their taxes, get value for their money.

Explain the consequences of project delays, disruptions, and changes to planned activities and the methods for claims variations, liquidated damages, contract entitlements, and arbitration.From the learning units, project delays have dire consequences to any project, whether it is a public government backed or private project. Project delays are one form of project failure because it implies the desired outcomes are not met within a given time frame. But the biggest effect of project delays is that it leads to increased costs and significant changes in the project scope. When projects delay, the cause is usually due to a need to make drastic changes or in some cases a natural phenomenon. While the project is delayed, other aspects need to keep running, including payment to project team members. Bigger related or dependent objectives, such as those that were meant to be met by the project are also delayed; for instance a late completion of a sports stadium can adversely affect the dates events are to be held within the stadiumApart from leading to increased costs and changes to the scope, delays endanger the project because they can lead to a loss of support from the project sponsors, or even its abandonment Are any of the activities above relevant to your reflections for the learning outcomes on the right?6. Evaluate project management tools that help avoid or provide conflict resolution via negotiated solutions.The main tools for handling and managing conflicts and disagreements in projectteams include competing, avoiding, accommodating, collaborating, and compromising. Competing behaviour pertains to being uncooperative and assertive, but this can have adverse consequences. Avoiding implies failing to satisfying the concerns of all parties. Compromising implies reaching a consensus in a give and take approach while collaboration requires a mix of assertiveness and cooperationAvoiding conflict is a form of withdrawal from the real issues. Accomodation is a smoother method of conflict management, while compromising requires reconciliation. Collaboration seeks to solve problems while forceful and direct conflict management canalso be used, especially for government organizations. 2 of 4
