1.0 Introduction
The Project Initiation Document or PID determines management of project scope, project
activities with carrying associated team in the project firm. It contains fundamental information
about the entire project and serves as a roadmap for completing it efficiently. It is critical to
provide direction to external stakeholders on internal activity. The given PID is dedicated on
providing discussion regarding the London College of Contemporary Arts (LCCA) for making
shifting to a new location from Holborn to Tower Hill. The project description, tolerances,
controls, initial business case, project strategy, organisational structure, communication plan, and
customer quality expectations are all included in this report. All of them are working together to
create a project start document that will help a company organisation achieve long-term
success(Abdel-Basset and et. al., 2021).
1.1 Relate to the case of the example of LCCA and the move to a new location
The reflected case at LCCA provides the discussion of the project work for which
shifting of the respective college from one location to another will be considered. The rationale
of the movement is being stated as outdated facilities made available to the site of LCCA. The
project will build on effective considerations reducing the operational cost of working and
providing effective facilities to students of the college while gaining education and relative
learning (Boss and Larmer, 2018).
1.2 Define a project, its characteristics, and the role of the project manager
The project is the term that is referred to as sequences of tasks that are being used to
complete or achieve specific outcomes. The term provided defined formats of working at the
workplace through which changes at the workplace can be implemented effectively (Chege and
et. al., 2019). Some of the characteristics of the project are mentioned below;
 Team spirit: The project classifies working towards the desired goal in a team. The
workings in the project firm are being considered in a team that helps in establishing
coordination of work in the project work.
 Objective-based: Another characteristic of the project relates to promoting objective-
based working. For the project work proper monitoring and controlling initiatives are
taken that guide operational working in the project towards completion of desirable
project objectives.
