Project Plan Template PROJECT BACKGROUNDProject Title:Role of Project management in in Civil Engineering ProjectsProject Aim:To collect the articles related to the similar topics and do literature review and identifythe essential aspects of the role of project management in civil engineering projects. Project Background:I have identified that the Australian road construction industry is estimated to witnessa surge of up to A$20 billion in the ongoing financial year. However, the estimationsare high still the assigned stakeholders because of their successful project deliverycapability concern the government over the successful delivery of the project. Thesolution for the government may lay in the adoption of project management forsuccessful competition of the project. It importance of project management could beunderstood by the fact that over 90% of the project professionals cite its importanceand quotes that it can change the whole structure of the organisation. However, theneed for skills and dependency over the primitive techniques of construction arepreventing the mass adoption of the projects management in these sectors.Project Benefits:The deemed project will result in the following outcomes:The project will assist in identifying the role that project management can playin successful delivery of the civil engineering project.The potential reason for adopting the project management in the civilengineering projects.Potential remedies that may motivate the project managers to think aboutadoption of the project management.To deliver the project successfully through utilizing sequential phases of theproject managementProject Objectives:The overarching project objectives are: To identify the role and significance of project management in successfuldelivery of the project.Potential reasons for not adopting the project management as part of theproject.The Changes that the project management may bring in the attitude of theproject team within the civil engineering projects.The time and organisational resources saved on adoption of the projectmanagement in manner to utilize the resources in efficient manner. The remedial measures that will enhance the implementation ratio of theproject management in the subject.PROJECT SCOPE Insert organisation name hereThe following section of the project planning document is specific to each team.Organisational ContextBMD group is one of the most respected construction group of Australia which haseven achieved the milestone of being in the list of “top 500 private companies ofAustralia” by Australian Financial Review at 44th rank. Established in 1979 theorganisation has proved its capability as a leader in the construction market and hasoffered its service to the state government and other significant projects. One of the
Project Plan Templatemost prominent example of the deemed organisations project is the bridge that wasdeveloped to carry the “Melton Highway” from over the “Bendigo Railway Line”.Other projects include enhancement of the flood immunity system of BruceHighway, expansion of the “Port Botany Container Terminal” for “PatrickStevedores” and multiple others. The adoption of project management will furtherenhance the organisational successful project delivery capability.This project will include:This project will not include:Review over the literatures related to theidentification of the factors and benefitsrelated to the application of the projectmanagement within the civil engineeringprojects. The project managementadoption within the civil engineeringprojects will enhance the delivery ratioof the organisation that will include theorganisational resources and thetimesaving. The quality of thedeliverable product will also increasethat will in the process increase theorganisational sustainability ratio.The project will not take consideration of the organisationalchange, which may develop prominent challenges to theorganisation. The management strategy for conflicts (in casethey arise) are also not a part of the defined approach and arenot taken into consideration.Project Deliverables:The deliverables on adoption of the project management will be the successfulcompletion of the civil engineering project within time & budget while mitigating thefailure chances and enhancing the proper utilisation of the organisational resourcesthat includes the human resources, inventory and others. The quality of thedeliverable project will also increase which will enhance the sustainability of theorganisation by enhancing the goodwill of the organisation in the market.Success Criteria:The success will be measured by comparing with the budget and time of the pastprojects and related literature. Additionally, the review of the clients on the past andcurrent project will also be taken into consideration to measure the success ratio ofthe project. The comparison can also be done with the competitive organisations toevaluate the success ratio of the adopted approach.Resources:The resources that will be required for the project are the human resources that areskilled in the project management tools and techniques. Additionally, theorganisational informational resources will be required to understand the workingmethodology of the organisation and plan the adopted management plan to becompatible with the existing structure of the organisation. The inventory of theorganisation will also be needed to formulate the most suitable plan for the proposedproject. The financial resource will also prove to be crucial because adoption of theproposed management tools and techniques may demand some financial support. TheIT infrastructure of the organisation who is adopting the proposed plan may alsodemand some upgradation to become more compatible with the adopted managementstrategy. Finally, the need system may also demand some physical space if theadopted tool for project management is not based on the cloud services.Linkages:There is significant opportunity of leverage from the deemed approach because theproject management plan will take consideration of the organisational structure andpast works to formulate the plan accordingly. The organisational information willeven assist in measuring the budget for the project and devise a plan suitable to fit inthe budget while offering quality project delivery. The ongoing projects of theorganisation can also be benefitted by adopting some key concepts from the proposedplan that may prove to be vital in the successful delivery of the ongoing projects. Theprocedures involved in the management of the civil engineering projects and hence, it
Project Plan Templatecan be stated that the deemed project can leverage from and offer to the ongoingorganisational projects.RISK PLANConsider the risks early?AssumptionsConstraintsThe available resources will be high standardThe information and data proposed in thescholar articles are relevant and accurateProject management will be effectively applied within the projectScope: Contribute in the enhancement of the operational activities through conducting research on previous literatures and research papers and performing secondary data analysisCost: The approach will be enhance the overall revenue of the organization by 20% through utilizing the project management approach for delivering the operational activities within the civilengineering projectsSchedule: The expected schedule for the successful accomplishment of the literature review is of eight weeks.Quality: Enhancing the output and standard of the delivery being made for the consumers and enhance the output of the civil engineering projects.Work Breakdown:The work breakdown will be developed from the implementation action plan 0.
