1. Introduction
Managing the delivery of water-supply in a remote area is all about to manage the water flow in the
remote areas. Refers to the remote areas, then these are far away from the main city and there are not all
the services are available to the peoples are living in that area. Due to the shortage of the water, the life of
the peoples is stopped and it is easy, not easy to survive in that particular area. For this project lot of
research are done and analysis the of the analysis. Provides the information about the different type of the
key stakeholders and develops the process steps for the development of the project (Pmi, 2018).
For that there are need to develops the Work breakdown structure and the Gantt chart for the analysis of
the working of the project. Analysis of the management plan and develops the traceability matrix for this
project. For managing the schedule there will be the development of the Gantt chart is developed.

Other than this the aim of the project is to develops the system and components that fulfil the
requirement of the supply of water. After that develops the components that provide the healthy water
to the remote area.
Figure 2: Developing project
For the development of the project, there is a need to develops the team, after that, there is a need to
develops the project manager for this project. The project manager is the person who is responsible for
the development of the project. The project manager is the person who is responsible for the development
of the project (Sacriver, 2018).
2.3 project scope
2.3.1 Requirements
As the project started then there is a lot of requirement in the project. There are a lot of the requirement of
the system, there are stakeholder requirements, project requirement. All the requirements are listed below:
System requirements
 Management plan
 Schedule plan
Stakeholder requirements
There are three types of the stakeholder for the project development. Below list down all the type of the
stakeholders.
 Internal stakeholders
7

o Employees
o Project Team
o Project manager
o Upper-level management
o owner
 External stakeholders
o Supplier
o Customers
o Shareholders
o Society
o Creditors
 Government
o Refers to the government, then this is the type of the stakeholder, the government are
developing the rules for the organization and for the development of the project. All the
organizations need to follow all the rules and if there any rule is broken, then legal
actions are against towards the organization.
 The major requirement of the stakeholders is to get involved in the project and gain the profit
from the project.
Project requirements
 Need to establish the system that supplies the water in the remote areas.
 Need to develop the plan that required less cost to complete the project.
 identifies the key stakeholders.

 Develops the efficient schedule for the project.
2.3.2 Deliverables
This is something that is related to the outcomes of the project. The outcomes of the project are in terms
to provides the water supplies in the remote area and develops a water management resources at that place
that will be good enough to fulfil all the water requirements of the remote areas. Some of the major
deliverables from the project are listed below:
 Water supply to the remote areas.
 Develops the relations with the stakeholders.
 Develops the teams that have the good coordination with each other.
 Time and schedule management.
2.3.3 Inclusions
This is part of the charter that provides the details about the task, items and actions that are included in the
project scope. Some of the common tasks that are related to the project scope are listed below:
 Project schedule.
 Resource management.
 Components of water supply.
 Stakeholders.

2.3.4 Exclusions
This is part of the charter that provides the details about the task, items and actions that are not included
in the project scope. Some of the common tasks that are related to the project scope are listed below:
 Labours
 External risk.
 Natural hazards
 Unwanted fault in the project.
 Failure in the execution phase (project, 2018).
2.3.5 Assumptions
This is most important part of the development of the project. This is the assumptions of the activity that
may be happening in future, this assumption can be based on the knowledge, information about the
current scenario or the experience. Some of the assumptions are taken for the project are listed below:
 Kept some of the extra resources to overcome hazards.
 Kept some of the stakeholders on hold as per the requirements.
 There is always the availability of the extra supplier and resources.
2.3.6 Constraints
this is also the important part of the development of the project. This provides the limitation to the project
resources and provides the limitation to the costing and scheduling of the project. There are two different
type of the constraints are present for the development of the project
Figure 3: Project constraints
Business constraints
This is depending upon the state of the organization or the developer. This is mainly containing the time,
cost and resources of the project.
9

Technical constraints
This is the part of the system, that is used to apply the constraint over the design of the project. As refers
to the current scenario, then there are need to develop the pipelines that should contain the water to the
remote areas, then there is technical constraint regarding the pressure of the water (Resources, 2016).
2.4. Significant milestones
The milestones in the project management are something related to the achievement of the project. This is
generally developing after the completion of every stage in the project. After the completion of the
milestone, there must be a break or there is a meeting with the team and with the stakeholder to discuss
the next steps of the development process. Some of the common milestones of the project are listed
below:
 Milestone 1: Project kick-off
 Milestone 2: Planning phase completed
 Milestone 3: Analysis phase completed
 Milestone 4: Design phase completed
 Milestone 5: Implementation phase completed
 Milestone 6: Testing phase completed
 Milestones 7: Maintenance phase completed
 Milestones 8: the whole project is completed.
2.5 Project budget summary
The budget of the project is related or depend upon the schedule of the project and the costing of each
resource. There are different resources are required to develops the project and all the resources have the
different costing as per the time and the duration of the project. Below list done the list of the resources as
per the costing of each resource.
S. No Resource name Cost of resources per hour
1 Business Analysis $60
2 Mechanical engineer $42
3 Electrical engineer $32
4 Civil engineer $65
5 Test engineer $31
6 Supplier $62
7 Technical writer $40
The above shows the list of all the resources and as per the resource, the costing of the project is
depended. One of the other major factors of the costing is the scheduling of the project. As the
development of project duration increases the costing of the project also increases (Planning, 2018).
Refers to the costing of each phase of the project, then the list of each phase of the costing are listed
below:
S. No Resource name Cost of resources per hour
1 Planning phase $ 11,200.00
2 Analysis phase $ 27,240.00
10

3 Design phase $ 65,272.00
4 Implementation phase $ 16,680.00
5 Testing phase $ 9,088.00
6 Maintenance phase $ 6,136.00
2.6 Key stakeholders

Figure 4: Stakeholders
 Internal stakeholders
o Employees
o Project Team
o Project manager
o Upper-level management
o owner
 External stakeholders
o Supplier
o Customers
o Shareholders
o Society
o Creditors
 Government
Refers to the government, then this is the type of the stakeholder, the government are developing the rules
for the organization and for the development of the project. All the organizations need to follow all the
11

rules and if there any rule is broken, then legal actions are against towards the organization (Bizfluent,
2018).
3. Project management approach
3.1. Project management methodology
For the development of the project, there is need to use the project methodology, there is a different
type of the project methodology are present and all have the different advantages and disadvantages
as per the requirement of the project. For the development of the project. For the development of the
project, there are using the waterfall model.
Figure 5: Waterfall model
The above figure shows the steps of the development of the project by the use of the waterfall model.
This follows the five major steps for the development of the project. Below describe all the stages of the
development of the development of the project.
Requirements:
 This is the initial stage of the development of the project. In this phase the working of over the
planning phase of the project, after that need to analysis the all the outcomes in the planning
phase.
 In this, there are a need to analysis the stakeholders and the need for the stakeholders.
 After the arrange the meeting with the stakeholders and with the team.
 Then analysis the need for the requirement of the stakeholders.
 Then analysis the schedule and cost of the project.
 Develop the cost and then develops the schedule of the project.
 Then discuss the cost and schedule of the project, with the team and find out the changes into the
schedule.
12

Design
This is the second stage of the development of the project. This is the second stage of the
development of the project, after the analysis in the previous stage need to work on the design of the
project.
 In this stage, there is need to analyse all the requirement and then works on the design of the
project.
 Develops the meeting with the resources and works over the schedule.
 Analysis the schedule of the project and the then start the development of the project on the
large scale.
 Need to develops system for storage of the rainwater.
 Need to develop the system to reuse of the water.
 Need to the system, that manages the water system in the remote areas.
Implementation
This is the third stage of the development of the project. In this start the working of the implementation of
the project in the remote areas. This part of the system needs to works and implement the project in the
remote area.
 All the design of the project is done in the above phase of the project. After that need to
implement the project into the system.
 Develops the water management system in the remote areas
 After that implement the reuse techniques into the water management system.
Verification
This is the fourth stage of the project development of the project, before this stage all the development of
the project is completed.
 In this stage verifies the working of all the components.
 After that analysis the working of the team.
 After that need analysis the requirement of the stakeholders.
 After that need to analysis the functions of all the developing tools.
For this case, there is a need to analyse the working of the all the component that is used for reuse the
water at the remote area other than this analysis the working of the rainwater storage system in the remote
areas. In this stage of the project, there are need to verifies the working of each resource of the project
development.
Maintenance
This is the final stage of the for the development of the project. In this, all the development of the project
is completed and testing of the project is completed. After that need to maintain the working of the
system. for that there are need some of the steps that are followed in this stage are:
 Develops the team that has the manage the working of the all the components.
 Time to time checkup of all the devices (Digital, 2018).
13

3.2 Strategy and procedures to achieve project goals/objectives
For achieving the goal, there are various of the approaches are present, that will help to develop the better
project for the system. there is need to use the some of the specific objectives of the project. For the
development of this project, then there are using the SMART approach to achieve the goal of the project.
Below show the steps of the SMART approach for the development of the project.
SMART defines as:
 Specific.
 Measurable
 Acceptable.
 Realistic.
 Time-frame.
Figure 6: Smart Goal
Specific:
This is one of the basic steps of this process, this step is defining as the value of the project in the single
direction. This is one of the best approaches to start the project, that is defined in the project in the single
direction. By the help of this, it is easy to manage the work in the project and analysis the requirements of
the project. For this case there are need to develop the system, that has to maintain the supply of the water
14

in the remote areas. For that need to develops the Rainwater harvesting in the remote areas. Other than
this need to develop the system, with the help of that, is easy to reuse the used water.
Measurable:
 This is the other part of the system or this is the second step of the development of the project. In
this need to measure the effectiveness of the project. There are various of the project that has the
no use in other words the effectiveness of that project is at the zero level.
 There is need to measure the effectiveness of the project, so it is easy to except by the remote
area. There is need a measure of the effectiveness of the project.
Acceptable:
 This is the major part of the project. As the project planning is started at that time, in the planning
the project needs to accept by all the members of the team.
 The project needs to accept by the stakeholders.
 The project needs to accepted by the other member of the system and the people of the remote
area.
 The criteria for the selection of the project are how much value the project.
 Other than this there are need to develop the project that has the better scheduling.
Realistic:
 While thinking of the project, there are need to analysis the possibility of the project. In that
comes all the process of the project.
 There are major of the project area decline in the phase of the planning as they are possible to
implement in the real life.
 Same for this case, there is a need to analyse all the working prototype in the real life.
Timeframe:
 This is another most important part while selecting the project, then there is need to verifies the
schedule of the project.
 While deciding the schedule of the project, then there is a need to develop the system, that
account all the risk that are associated with the project.
 Need to verify the whole schedule of the project for the development of the project as to complete
the project over the required time and schedule.
 While developing any schedule for the project, then need to analyse all the risk that is associated
with the project (Balance, 2018).

4. Scope management
4.1 Project scope statement
This is the part of the project design that is used to defines the project scope, deliverables and then find
out the constraints, assumptions and key success factors of the project. Other than this it is used to
defines the boundaries of the project. Below listed down all these elements.
Deliverables of the project
This is something that is related to the outcomes of the project. The outcomes of the project are in terms
to provides the water supplies in the remote area and develops a water management resources at that place
that will be good enough to fulfil all the water requirements of the remote areas. Some of the major
deliverables from the project are listed below:
 Water supply to the remote areas.
 Develops the relations with the stakeholders.
 Develops the teams that have the good coordination with each other.
 Time and schedule management.
Inclusion of project
This is part of the charter that provides the details about the task, items and actions that are included in the
project scope. Some of the common tasks that are related to the project scope are listed below:
 Project schedule.
 Resource management.
 Components of water supply.
 Stakeholders.
Exclusions
This is part of the charter that provides the details about the task, items and actions that are not included
in the project scope. Some of the common tasks that are related to the project scope are listed below:
 Labours
 External risk.
 Natural hazards
 Unwanted fault in the project.
 Failure in the execution phase.
 Business constraints
 This is depending upon the state of the organization or the developer. This is mainly containing
the time, cost and resources of the project.
 Technical constraints
 This is the part of the system, that is used to apply the constraint over the design of the project.
As refers to the current scenario, then there are need to develop the pipelines that should contain
the water to the remote areas, then there is technical constraint regarding the pressure of the water
(Pmi, 2018).

4.3. Scope control plan
This is the part of the project, that is used for monitoring of the development of the project. There is a
different type of the system that is used to monitoring the project progress. There is a need to develops the
proper schedule of the project, this can be done in the planning phase of the project. There is a different
type of the project monitoring techniques are listed below:
1. Schedule
This is the one of the technique by the use of this it is easy to measure the progress of the project. All the
task has the definite time and duration of completion. There is need to analysis the working of the current
development part of the project. After that compare the current schedule of the project to the planned
schedule of the project. If the project is ahead of the schedule then it is good for the system, if it up to the
mark than also this is good, but if it is behind then there is need to work over the schedule.
2. Quality
The schedule of the project is important for the development of the project, but at the same time, there is
need to monitor the quality of the project. There is need to measure the quality of the project, after
achieving every milestone in the project. This can be done with the help of the test engineer in the project.
3. Cost
the whole project is depended upon the costing of the project. All the cost of the resources and the cost of
the project are analysis in the planning and the analysis phase of the project. After that, there is need to
analysis the costing of the project at every stage of the project. There is need to measure the actual cost of
the project to the analysis cost of the project at every sub-stages of the project.
4. Stakeholder satisfaction
This is the major part of the project development, there is need to arrange the meetings with the
stakeholder after completion of every stage of the project. In the meeting, there is a need to provide the
information about the progress of the project to the stakeholder. If the stakeholder is happy with the rate
and progress of the project, then there are many problems are solved related to the project.
5. Performance to business care
This is related in terms of the business through the project, that means how the project is going through at
the success of the project for the system. There are need to analyse every factor that is related to the
project and needs to analyse the progression of the project (Scope, 2018).

5. Requirements management
5.1. Requirements management plan
This is the part of the system that is used to defines the working of the resources in the system. there are
different resources are used in this case to fulfil all the system, user and stakeholder requirements. Below
shows the data of the resources.

7. Schedule management
7.1. Schedule management methodology/approach
Refers to the schedule management then there are a lot of the tools are present in the schedule
management. The aim of the tools is to manage the cost of the development process, other than
this it is used to manage the time duration and schedule of the project. By the use of the schedule
management, it is easy to manage the resources and it is easy to understand the resources of the
project. For this case one of the software are using for the schedule management that is MS
project.
7.1.1. Software
This is one of the common software that is used to develops the project plan. This provides the
interface to the user, with the help of that it is easy to manage all the resources, scheduling of the
project and helps to manage the costing of the project. Some of the major advantages of the MS
project are:
Figure 9: MS project
 It provides the easy interface to the user that helps to manage the resources.
 There is no need to performs the calculation over this software.
 In this easy to understand the critical tasks.
 Easy to manage the schedule and easy to manage the costing of the project.
 Resource allocation in a simpler way (Greycampus, 2018).
22

7.2. Schedule monitoring and control plan
Refer to the schedule monitoring plan and controlling plan, then this is used to manage the cost of the
project, or this is used to verifies the progress of the project. This can be done with the help of the earned
value analysis. In this, there are two types of the calculation, one if cost variance and other is schedule
variance. As the project started, then the project is divided into the task, and each task needs to two pieces
of the information that are budget and the start or end date.
There are carried outcome of the cost values of the project, that are listed below:
 Planned values: this is budget of the project.
 Earned values: this is the actual amount of the project
 Actual cost: this is actual cost required for each task.
After calculating all these values, there are some of the measure values need to be analysis, that is
Cost variance: CV= EV-AC (this is the amount that project in cost overrun)
Schedule variance: SV= EV-PV (this is the amount of project behind the schedule)
The cist is used as the base variable for the calculation of the schedule and cost variance, that is output in
the percentage of the performance index.
Cost performance index: CPI= EV/AC
Schedule performance index: SPI = EV/PV (Bernie Roseke, 2018).
