Project Execution Plan Report: ATA's East Timor Solar Project

This report provides a detailed analysis of the Australian non-profit organization ATA's East Timor solar project, focusing on its project execution plan. The project aimed to implement an advanced solar power system for a village in East Timor, addressing the lack of electricity in many households. The report covers the project's scope, aims, and management plan, including the roles of ATA members and local workers. It highlights the project's critical analysis, detailing the project's timeline, funding, and the organization's approach to community involvement. The project's controls, commissioning, operation, and maintenance are also discussed, emphasizing the importance of local involvement and sustainable practices. The report concludes by emphasizing the project's potential to improve power generation and the importance of local participation for its success. References to relevant research papers are also included to support the findings.

PROJECT EXECUTION PLAN
Project Name: ATA and its East Timor Project
Estates & Buildings
University of Glasgow
January 2003

Executive Summary
The main aim of the report is to focus on the Australian Non government and not –
for – profit organization ATA. The company had started an East Timor (ET) solar
project in the late 2000s. The following assignment had been developed for
understanding the actual Project Execution Plan for East Timor Project. The project
had been developed for the implementation of the advanced processing and it had
included the management of the operations to form the Solar Power System for the
village of East Timor. The big scale development of the solar power would help in
integrating the existing operations and form the advanced power generation for the
organization.

Introduction
Background The ATA is a non profit Australian organization that specializes in the
development of the operations for power generation (Zahnd & Kimber,
2016). The project had been developed for the implementation of the
advanced processing and it had included the management of the
operations to form the Solar Power System for the village of East Timor.
The big scale development of the solar power would help in integrating
the existing operations and form the advanced power generation for the
organization.
Scope of the
Project
The scope of the project is to imply an effective solar power development
in the organization. The development plan, implementation plan, and risk
management plan are the in scope items of the project. The project would
develop a system that would form the effective use of the improved power
generation for village.
Aims of the
Project
The aim of the project is to develop solar power project at East Timor as
more than 35% of the houses in East Timor doesn’t have electricity for
basic activities. The company has been developing the basic
infrastructure for the people of the place and their target was to provide
them with electricity supply.

Project Description
Preamble The Project is to be managed in line with the QA Procedures developed
by the Australian Government
Critical
Analysis The project had been scheduled to run in between 2014 and 2016 with an
estimated cost of $ 300,000 (Thomas et al., 2017). The funding for the
project would be managed by Google impact funding from Australia and it
would help ATA for completing their operations in sufficient time duration.
According to Order and Scheffe (2016), the ATA organization is a non
profitable organization and it is the main reason that the organization
could not put much amount of value in the project.
Organization
, Roles, and
Responsibili
ty
The project organization and activities for the East Timor project is divided
into the ATA members and the local workers. The main emphasis of the
project is for the implication of the solar power utilization system and it
would be kept local. As opined by Borodaï et al. (2016), the basic
operations of the project like implementation of the system, maintenance
of the system, and repairing of the parts would be done by the locals. The
expectation of the project owner, Kate Greenwood is to complete the
project in 2 years of span.

Project Management Plan
Project
Controls
ATA were planning for the project of East Timor for the last ten years and
they form an execution of the system before the village. The solar
lightning scheme of the volunteers would involve the formation of the
main control over the project development (Yfanti, Sakkas & Nistikaki,
2016). The East Timor houses are prepared for the deployment of the
effective processing and operations. The deployment of the improved
processes. The primary control of the venture and the concentration of
the venture was the expansion of the family sun powered lighting plan. As
opined by Cucchiella et al. (2017), it is a point to be noticed that in East
Timor houses as of now had pre introduced framework in their homes
with a specific end goal to get the coveted power. These were for the
most part gift which was given by the legislature. The general population
ordinarily messed with the framework and there was no financing or
upkeep accessible to the framework which made them particularly
questionable. Since the organization was working in the East Timor for
quite a while the organization had a decent information and
comprehension of the zone (Amritanand et al., 2016). The organization as
of now had an association with a nearby association which was
particularly advantageous. The organization had an objective of
introducing the same number of the framework they can with a specific
end goal to diminish the general cost factor.

Commission
ing,
Operation
and
Maintenance
The ATA has been working in the East Timor for right around 10 year or
somewhere in the vicinity. Principally the venture was executed already
before the town lighting plan by volunteers. The principle point of the
framework was that to give a framework that the general population could
esteem. The specialized work and the plan work were finished by a group
who were included with the ATA for a drawn out stretch of time. The
smaller scale controller was composed with the particular need with
exceedingly talented specialist. The framework was made especially
harder so it is extremely hard to temper with the framework because of
which the framework can maintain for any longer timeframe (Wagner et
al., 2017). The organization had likewise set up a town group
administration group. This group would be in charge of dealing with the
plan. Every family would be given a framework which they will get in the
wake of giving a little sum. The framework cost was $10 and the upkeep
was $2 every month keeping in mind the end goal to keep up the
framework. With a specific end goal to accomplish the upkeep part the
organization had prepared the neighbourhood individuals so that can
settle any part if the circumstance emerges of repair. The preparation
fused establishment of the framework, do support of the framework and
do fundamental repair.

Conclusion
It can be concluded from the assignment that the project of implementing the solar
power system would be helpful for the implication of the effective power generation
for the East Timor villages. The formation of the project organization and activities
for the East Timor project were divided into the ATA members and the local
workers. The main emphasis of the project was for the implication of the solar power
utilization system and it would be kept local.
