Introduction
1

Utopia is the youngest nation in the world and it needs development through establishment of
new industries so that it can have a sustainable future. For this, UNHCR has planned gathered
funds by selling its satellite island, Elysium for $50 million to one International chain of
resorts so that sustainable industries can be developed on the island. The project would be
executed in two phases that would involve construction of householders in the first phase and
construction of tourist resorts on the island in the second phase.
The first phase is already underway and is expected to be completed by 2020 after which the
second phase of tourism industry construction would begin. In the stage 1, the project
involves construction of 5000 households with other facilities including administrative
building, hospital, airstrip, catering, school, power, sewage, water facilities, and deep-water
jetty. The phase two would involve construction of a resort that can accommodate 2,500
guests, this plan has been prepared for the second phase of the project that involves
construction of eco resorts on the Island and establishment of self-sustainable industries
including agriculture, fisheries, tourism, pearl and jewellery harvesting, and hydro-electric
supply.
Project management Plan
Projected Integration Management.
Project integration involves identification, definition, combination, and coordination of
project management processes and activities. It involves development of project charter
project management plan, direction and management of the project work, monitoring and
controlling of project, change control, and project closure. A project charter can be developed
using inputs like agreements, business documents, and organization process assets that are
processed using tools and techniques like data collection, meetings, and expert judgements.
Output of these processes would come out in the form of a project charter and an assumption
log. Various different outputs that result from different project integration activities include
project charter, assumptions log, project management plan, deliverables, work performance
data, issues log, change requests, lessons learned, and project closure report.
Project Charter
Project Stakeholders: Major stakeholders of the tourism resort construction project are
project sponsor, project owner, island communities, project manager, suppliers, contractors,
and government. Project owner and sponsor are the high influence stakeholders who would
be involved in high level decision making. Project manager, contractor, suppliers, and
2

workers are the high interest stakeholders who would be involved in delivering the project
and thus, need to be engaged closely. Residentials, tourists, and communities in local areas
would be the end users or customers of the reports after they are built and thus, their inputs
would be taken during requirement gathering to understand their needs such that the same can
be reciprocated in the project design and construction plan. Some requirements that are
identified for customers of the resorts are eco-friendly construction, assurance of safety at
site, use of high quality of construction material, and provision of all desired facilities to
support tourism development. Government would be playing the support function as well as a
governing body for the construction development and then the promotion of the same for the
development of other industry and their integration with the resort facilities.
Project Description: The project involves construction of the resorts on the island with
accommodation provided for 2,500 families or tourists visiting the resort. The project
construction once completed would also involve development of other industries through
support from tourism activities associated with the resort services and these industries would
include agriculture, fisheries, tourism, pearl and jewellery harvesting, and hydro-electric
supply.
Goals: The goals of the current tourism project are the following –
 Construction of resort that attracts maximum tourists to the location
 Provision of all the facilities needed by the tourist by construction and establishment
of various industry structures
 Assurance of the safety of the people residing in the island and visiting it through the
appropriate use of safety measures
 Completion of the project within the give budget so that profits can be obtained from
the tourist services
Project Scope: Activities that are within the scope of the project include –
 Procurement of materials and equipment’s needed for construction
 Designing of the resort architecture for the development work
 Excavation and cleaning of the site upon inspection for building the
foundation
 Construction of the foundation and the resort
 Construction of windows, interiors, and provision of electrical and plumbing
facilities

 Painting outside each of the resort structure
 Construction of the road from resort and the public infrastructure on the island
 Compliance with the quality standards for the construction material and
fabricated construction units
 Establishment of the agriculture industry with support from resort facilities by
integrating their services with output from the agriculture on the island.
 Establishment of the gems and jewellery industry with support from resort
facilities by integrating their services with output from the agriculture on the
island.
 Establishment of the fisheries industry with support from resort facilities by
integrating their services with output from the agriculture on the island.
 Establishment of the hydro-electricity industry with support from resort
facilities by integrating their services with output from the agriculture on the
island.
Project management methodology:
The tourism project would make use of the PMBOK (Project Management Body of
Knowledge) methodology involving standard phases for the project management including
initiation, planning, execution, control and closure. With these phases, the project would
follow the ten management areas of the project management as defined in the guidelines.
Thus, sub0plans would be developed for the management of all the areas that include cost,
schedule, quality, risk, scope, procurement, stakeholder, environment, integration. Each of
these management areas would have individual processes that would be utilized for
management and control of the project development areas.

Risk Analysis: The risks on the project would be analysed based on the risk analysis process
define in the PMBOK guide which involved identification, assessment, and response
planning for identified risks. The identities risks would be assessed based on their probability
of occurrence and the impact on the project and the results of analysis would determine what
action must be taken in response to managing those risks from acceptance, avoidance,
mitigation and transfer.
Quality Plan: The quality of the project would be maintained by complying to certain quality
standards defined for the construction material, construction work and the safety of the
workers as well as those passing by the construction site during the project as well as those
using the resort after it is being constructed. The project would go through the quality
assurance process and quality control. A number of different tools can be used for quality
assurance here including checklist, control charts, fishbone diagrams, histogram, pareto chart,
and scatter diagram. In this project, control charts and histograms would be used that would
5

record the progressing quality of the project to enable comparison with the plan and
judgement on if the quality specifications are being met. The quality would be defined in two
forms on the tourism project and those would be product quality involving considerations of
materials and construction units and project quality that would be defined by the capacity of
the project team to meet the project goals within its constraints.

Project Scope Management
Project scope management involves planning, data collection, scope definition, WBS, scope
validation, and scope control. The scope management plan would involve use of requirements
management plan for planning of scope, requirements traceability matrix for requirement
gathering, scope statement for scope definition, and scope baseline WBS. Change requests
and work performance information would later be used for scope validation and control.
Scope Management plan
A scope management plan can be developed for the tourism project to ensure that project
scope elements are met on time and are controlled such that resources are optimized to be
used on the project only as planned.
