Project Management Assignment: Coffee Outlet Development in Hong Kong

This project management assignment details the development of a small coffee outlet in Hong Kong. The project encompasses construction, interior decoration, and launch, with a focus on identifying requirements, creating a project plan, architectural design, resource estimation, risk management, and project implementation. The assignment covers project scope, including the constructional work and interior decoration. It emphasizes proper project management through supervision, resource allocation, and risk mitigation strategies, which involve identification, analysis, and response to risks. The student highlights the importance of feasibility reports, cost requirements, timelines, and resource allocation in project finalization. The assignment concludes with reflections on the project, emphasizing the value of feasibility analysis, resource allocation, and lessons learned for future project planning, offering insights into project management practices.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Answer A
The project that I have managed is a development of a small coffee outlet in Hong Kong.
Although it was a construction project, the size of the project was considerably small. The
project included the constructional work of development of the coffee shop along with a proper
launch of the outlet. The project plan was formulated by identifying the major requirements and
deliverables of the project.
Project Scope
The project aimed at building and launching of a coffee shop. The project is not very
complex as it deals with the development of a small coffee outlet. The constructional work will
be followed by the interior decoration of the outlet and launch.
The project plan includes incorporates the major stages of the project such as
identification of the requirements, developing a plan and architectural design of the coffee shop,
estimating the resource required for the project, identifying and managing the project risks,
implementation of the project and launching the coffee shop (Kerzner and Kerzner 2017).
Answer B
For proper administration and management of the project, proper supervision of the
project progress is ensured. It was the responsibility of the project team members to report the
project progress to the project manager. This helped in proper record keeping and managing the
project progress (Larson and Gray 2013). Furthermore, the resources needed for the project are
allocated at the beginning of the project. This helps in proper resource management as well.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Risk management, is a process of identifying, analyzing and responding to the risks
associated with the project lifecycle. As a risk management approach, the major project risks are
identified. A risk registered is made for classifying the risks according to their impact and
intensity. After proper risk assessment, different risk mitigation strategies are applied in order to
eliminate the impact of the identified risks on the project (McNeil, Frey and Embrechts 2015).
Therefore, the overall risk management process included different stages such as risk
identification, analyzing the risk, evaluation of the risk, treating and monitoring the risk
(Christoffersen 2012). Monitoring of the risk was essential in order to ensure that the mitigated
risk does not returns back or gives rise to a new risk.
Answer C
The information that is collected for finalizing the project includes the feasibility report,
the cost requirement and the budget, time required for overall project completion and the
resources required in the project. Proper information about the requirements of the project is
essential to finalize the project. In order to conduct the final review of the project, the
information about the project progress and project implementation is required to conduct the
final review of the project.
The experience and knowledge about proper project estimation and project progress helps
in planning the future projects. The knowledge I gained from this project will help me in
implementing the future projects in a more structured way. The knowledge about the importance
of the feasibility analysis of the project helps in understanding the project requirements as well.
For successful implementation of the project, it is very essential to properly identify and allocate

the resources required in a project. All these experiences will help me in effectively planning the
future projects.
