2PROJECT DEVELOPMENT & IMPLEMENTATION
Introduction
The project of wedding ceremony was formed with the consideration of the innovative
process implication and the implication of the identification of the project issues. The wedding
ceremony project was formed with the modification of the implication and the usage of the
project management tools and options. The completion of the assignment would help in
collecting initial implication required by the stakeholders for understanding the requirements of
the project.
1. Project Inimplication
1.1 Factors for selection of project
The selection of the project is implied with the help of different methods of net present
value, payback period, discounted cash flow, and internal rate of return, benefit to cost ratio,
linear programming, integer programming, dynamic programming, and multiple objective
programming. The economic and technical benefits of the project was accounted for the selection
of the project. The net present value for the project is calculated by the subtraction of the overall
income and expenses of the project. The annual income from the benefit was subtracted by the
annual expenses for estimating the final value of the project. The selection of the project was
estimated by the value of the NPV that means, if the NPV comes to be positive, the project was
selected. The negative value of the NPV would result in the rejection of the project. The payback
period shows the time required for the achievement of the final deliverable for the project. The
time required for the project income to be equal to the project expense. The completion of the
project was marked by the analysis of the time required for the net income and net expense
(considering the discounting factor) was same. The discounted cash flow is the net income and
net expense minus the discounting factor. The net cash flow was helpful for managing the
annualized flow of cash for the project. The internal rate of return was used for the analysis of
the rate required for the returns of the investment. The returns of the rate of the investment was
used for calculating the rate by which the investment of the projects was returned. The
programming part deals with the technical projects and the success of executing the activities for
the project. The linear, integer, and dynamic programming are helpful for the evaluation of the
program management. It is helpful for integrating the successful completion of the project using
the programming facility for estimating the outcome of the projects.
1.2 Project Specifications
The project is formed for the execution of the wedding ceremony of Tony and Peggy Sue
on the date of the 30th June. The wedding ceremony would require planning and use of the
project management tools for the successful modification of the activities. The wedding
ceremony would involve the fixing of the budget, searching for the venue, dress shopping, and
execution of the work for the project. The wedding was implied with the implication of the
efficient modification for the activities. The wedding ceremony was supported by the implication
collection and usage of the improved activities. The involvement of the project specification
formed was formed with the compilation of the successive process implication. The modification
of the improved project work can be implied with the improvement of the innovative activities of
the project. The involvement of the project management activities was helpful for planning

project and decoration of the venue. The execution of the wedding was done as an outdoor
wedding with music, food, ceremony, and dance.
1.3 Agreed project quality
The wedding plan was evaluated with the concern time, budget, and event quality for
Tony and Peggy. The time is a major factor as the planning, collection of the resources, and
ceremony execution was helpful for aligning the management of the project completion. The
project was required for being completed on time as the event was held on 30th June. The project
planning and other activities must be completed on time so that the execution of the project was
done in the estimated time. The wedding plan was implied with the inclusion of the improved
work implication. The project quality was analyzed with the consideration that the work was
completed in the estimated time. The couple has an estimated budget that must be considered for
their outdoor wedding. The project quality has been defined with the consideration for the
affective work function modification. The cost of the project is a major concern for the
involvement of the ceremony execution. The project quality management was efficiently implied
with the consideration of the innovative process imlication and formment. The project quality
modification was formed with the compilation of the improved improved and formment.
2. Project Planning
2.1 Project Plan
The project plan for the wedding ceremony has been formed with the modification of the
traditional adaptive process imlication and it was successfully implied with the management of
the activities for the project. The project plan would include the listing of the wedding planning
and ceremony activities as it would incorporate the implication of the smart implementation
activities. The project plan is shown in the table below,
