Customers are more likely to get high-quality goods and services at a very digestible price. Being
the finest player of this food industry, Nestle has adopted different strategies which are more
relevant and help them to reach their aim at the very minimum time (Todorović, et. al., 2015).
The aim Nestle is to bring every nation’s culture and showcase their product values in each

P2 Produce a project management plan that covers aspects of cost, scope, time, quality,
communication, risk and resources
In the event of recruiting, selecting and providing training to the employees and candidates
involvement of human resources management is very necessary. However, their managers have
also made up a plan to forces the actions and implement them very effectively. A project
management plan is very necessary to administrate any work. The results are comparatively not
effective without effective project planning. There are some certain components which are more
important evaluating the plan such as:
 Cost: As the primary function for any project or assessment. Cost is the primary
component in any business plan because the incurrence of cost is very important to run
any business activity. In order to meet international requirements, HR management of
Nestle will identify new stakeholder and float their market share (Zhou, et. al., 2016).
 Scope: This project plan is applicable at the every phase of this organization because the
project plan conducts each function or activity. Managers and leaders are the navigators
of a project plan they are very well understand how & where to this plan effectively.
 Time: Time management and correct bifurcation of work is a good sign of managing the
work. Management can’t stick behind one activity for a long time. They have to manage
the task timely and also get assured to accomplish wind up by producing strong and
positive results.
 Quality: In order to manage other function of a project plan doesn’t mean to compromise
with the quality. The nourishment and quality of the product are as important as other
components. Quality in work helps to reduce briefing and training sessions which
ultimately reduces cost.
 Risk: The identification of risk and determination risk management in the operations is
an art. Everyone does not have the ability to identify risk and use it as a contingency
planning.
 Communication: The plan is not effective unless it being followed by everyone in the
organization. To get the plan followed, it is very essential to communicate the plan with
each member in the organization (Andreani, et. al., 2012). Selection of right
communication is very necessary.

 Resources: Bringing of new resources is very tough because some of the resources are
very expensive. However, managers often found new methods to replicate the resources.

P3 Produce a work breakdown structure and a Gantt chart to provide timeframes and
stages for completion
Work breakdown structure
Work breakdown structure is basically a sub-division of the activities of the project management
plan. The researcher found this process very easy to segregate or break up the work according to
the time and severity (Badewi, 2016). Identification or division of work in a well-defined manner
enables systemization in the business. However, HR managers have also divided the work as per
the illustrated diagram mentioned below:

Gantt chart
The Gantt chart is prepared by the researcher and expertise in order to arrange each activity of
the project management. The time scheduling of work and division of each activity according to
its right time is very necessary (Chell, et. al., 2016). The project execution is interlinked with the
Gantt chart because it helps to schedule the work with effective information systems and their
mission control analysts. This is the graphical representation which illustrates the duration of a
project plan is of 10 weeks and each activity is divided into their required time duration
