PROJ6002 Project: Scope and Time Management for St. Dismas Facility

This project plan focuses on the development of an assisted living facility at St. Dismas Medical Centre, addressing the need for cost-effective inpatient care and new programs. The plan outlines project goals, objectives, and scope, including construction, staffing, and service offerings. A detailed work breakdown structure (WBS) is presented, encompassing operational execution, legal requirements, marketing, and construction. The project schedule, originally planned for completion by June 2022, is shown to extend beyond this date, necessitating project crushing to meet the deadline. The project involves stakeholders like the Board of Trustees and key staff members, and the assignment includes the creation of a project schedule and network diagram using the critical path method (CPM) and a modified schedule with a 20% earlier completion of the marketing project plan.

Project schedule
The project is supposed to be initiated by November 2019. The Board of Trustees projects that
the project for constructing the open assisted facility should be completed before June 2022.
However, based on the project schedule the construction project will run past the projected date
by more than seven years. According to Microsoft Project software used to calculate the duration
that will taken by the project it shows that project will run from June 1, 2019 to August 30, 2029.
Therefore, it means that if the project is to be completed before June 2022, many project tasks
will have to be started early. The project manager will also have to apply project crushing to
meet this deadline.
