MAIN BODY
TASK 1
Project Management Plan
It is a formal documents which defines about how the project is going to be carried. It

track(Kerzner, 2019).
This project is been on organizing the music event by TFL. As the permission is been
granted by the Ealing Council to the Transport for London (TFL) for development of land along
with the Bollo Lane for creating more than 800 new houses. TFL aims to undertake the road
projects for creating greener, safer and attractive streets and also improvement in the whole
network of bus across London Ealing Council. Leading the approval TFL has invited a plan for
project management for staging of the well known operettas of playwright William G. Gilbert
and composer Arthur Sullivan. This event also aims at celebrating 40 anniversary of G&S
Society and unveiling of the strategic direction. This whole event is funded by the TFL in
collaboration with Student Council of University. The starting date of this project is 27
September, 2021.
The main objective of this event is to celebrate the 40 anniversary of G&S and unveil
the strategic direction for developing the Bollo lane by creating 800 homes. The event will a
public event as organizers are inviting famous operettas of playwright William G. Gilbert and
composer Arthur Sullivan.

This project will deliver the memorable experience of entertainment to the audience.
For achieving this the event will event will have many activities like live stage performance,
singing competition for new artists, party and games.
Project Methodology- Its a set of practices and principles which guides in organizing the
projects for ensuring the best performance(Lai, Deng and Chang, 2019). For organizing the
music event the agile methodology is suitable as it will allow the management to revise the
project when required during the process and need not wait till end for reviewing and
amendment. Using this methodology is very beneficial for management as it is very quick, open
to data driven change and collaborative. In it frequent reassessment, testing and adaptation is
done in short phases of work. Organizers should use this methodology as the project is liable to
change in future and results cannot be predicted. As University Student Council and many other
stake holders are involved in this event and they must be informed about the every stage of
project. This methodology is used by many event organizers in the past where the big pop-stars
have performed. Some benefits of using this methodology are-
 Productivity- Project is divided in short phases which makes them more manageable. It
allows the productivity for rolling out and changes can be easily made at any given point
in process. The music event will be more manageable if organizers uses this
methodology.
 Quality- If management uses this methodology then they will be able to find issues and
solutions in a fast manner and efficiently.
