It must be noted that the working days us 5 days per week
The working hours are 8 hours per day.
Therefore, total hours of works done per month= (5*8)*4= 160 hours
Total hours of work per year= (160*365) = 58400$
Total cost every year= (650*58400)$ = 37960000$
3. Scope and Scope Management Plan:
The scope of the project is the part of planning that incorporates documenting and
determining particular costs, deadlines, tasks, functions, features, deliverable and goals. The scope
management is developed to include separate scopes to answer various queries. This includes the
way in which the scope of achieved, tools needed to accomplish the scope, enterprise environmental
factors needed to accomplish the scope and needed organisational resources. Lastly, it must

determine who the scope gets controlled and manages the project. As Globex’s project gets
completed, the project manager can get enough time to decide how the scope is controlled and
executed. At this place, the decisions become the part of scope management plan.
