1. Project goal and objectives
1.1 Goal
The goal of the project is to construct a Bunglow within estimated time period and
allotted project budget considering the demand of the consumers and other specifications. It is
the role of the project manager to accomplish the Bunglow project by managing time and scope
statement. The Bunglow will be constructed on the strip footings. The prepared blueprint of the
Bunglow project implies that, it will be comprises of 6 rooms including kitchen, lounge, dining,
main bedroom, second bedroom, a guest room and a laundry with an internal plaster finishing,
timber trussed rafters and double brick veneer external walls. The construction project associates
will be paid on weekly basis. Based on complexity of their activities each of the project team
members will be paid hourly basis. As per the best case scenario duration for each activity is
needed to be increased by 50 percent to complete the project 20 percent faster than the
preliminary settings. Units for each of the activities are also chosen along with the plant cost and
material cost.
1.2 Objectives
The objectives for this specific project are as follows:
 To inspect the location or site accurately before initiating the work
 To accomplish the project within estimated time and assigned budget (as the work
is financed with bank loan therefore, the time mist not exceed the primary
estimation)

2SCOPE AND TIME MANAGEMENT PLAN
 To accomplish the task faster than preliminary estimation by increasing the
duration for making it much faster
2. Project scope statement
The scope of the project is to accomplish construction of a Bunglow on strip footing
within assigned time and budget with best quality raw materials and architect for its interior and
exterior design. In order to avoid over allocation of resources, cost and budget the complete
project is subdivided into four different segments such as design, site preparation, building (to
lock up) and building (to hand over). Each of these work packages are required to be completed
within the assigned project budget and timeline. The design, site preparation, building (to lock up
and hand over) phases are needed to be completed respectively by project team engagement,
pour footing and mortgage inspections. Each of these aspects needs to be successfully followed
by the contractors, sub contractors, civil engineer and architects.

In order to prepare the Network diagram we have considered the four main activities. The
duration assigned for each of these main activities are respectively 357,343, 94.5 and 70. Early
Start (ES) and EF for the preliminary activity are respectively 0 and 357. Similarly the backward
calculation is done from project building (handover) phase. The slack for the last phase is (Late
Finish-Duration=864.5-70). The Early Start is initially considered as 0 thus, the EF=
(0+357=357). On the other hand, the ES in nest phase is= (357+duration of the next phase)=
(357+343=700)
