trade by exchanging goods, services, technology, human resources etc. Whereas project
management can be referred to as the procedure constituting planning, executing, controlling
along with finishing up project work effectively and efficiently so as to achieve stipulated
objectives on time. Therefore effective management of plan feasibly can not be regarded easy as
several aspect needs to be considered such as cost, scope, time, quality. The assignment is
conducted upon Nestle Ltd, that is a F&B company with its headquarters situated within
Switzerland. This assignment discuss the aim and objective of title together with PMP. Apart
from that, WBS as well as Gantt charts are included. In addition to this analysis id also being

P1 Aim as well as objective of project
Background of research
Every organisation in this world wants to achieve a sustainable growth in market share
and a strong position in international market. This can only be achieved if the company have

services like cereals, confectionery, frozen foods, pet food, snacks etc. in almost every nation, so
in order to meet the nation requirement company must recruit and select talented human
resources as well as should render appropriate training session to each one so that the company

P2 PMP
PMP can be defined as approved and formal document which proves to be helpful in
proper execution of a project. Moreover there are several aspects which must be considered by
the management of Nestle while making effective project plan and they are cost, scope, time,
quality etc. so that each activity can be performed effectively for attaining the goals and
objectives stated within the project plan (Hung and et. al., 2012).
Cost:
To prevail in marketplace at international level, this has been regarded as the most
important element to be taken into account by Nestle as without sufficient fund company cannot
carry out its project in an appropriate and efficient manner. Therefore for functioning
internationally, the overall approx. cost has been stated to be 38000 Pound. To conduct research,
forecasted price is 350 pounds.
Time:
This is the another crucial aspect which must be considered as time factors plays a vital
role in creating brand image of company. Thus the estimated time period by the Nestle firm to
2

complete the project on time is around 21 weeks, whereas a researcher require 6 weeks to carry
out valuable and effective research.
Quality:
It is the another important aspect which must e considered by the management and
research so as to come up with effective outcome of project plan. AS in modern era people give
more preferences to quality of products rather than price so in order to stand upon customers
demand firms must adopt advanced and unique technologies for recruitments and selections and
for imparting trainings to workforce (Lambert and Enz, 2012). Whereas a researcher make best
use of its tools and techniques like qualitative and primary research so as to come up with better
quality research.

This aspect in relation to present project is wider as the firm intends to conduct activities
on a global scale. This will help a researcher to acquire more of knowledge and skills level about
the different tools and techniques and the about the ways through which firm can improve its
recruitment, selection and training procedures. Thus, it will help researcher to grow at both
professional and personal level.
Communication:
Without effective communication a firm cannot sustain for long period of time in
marketplace. So management of Nestle must ensure that effective communication is being
maintained between management and employees so that employees remain motivated and gives
there best to an organisation. Whereas a researcher uses questionnaire methods so as to
communicate with respondent and to gather opinions and behaviour of people towards the
project plan.
Resources:
For effectively executing the planning, there ought to be availability of sufficient
resources and so management of Nestle must ensure that they optimally utilise their resources,
namely, technology, human resources, raw material etc. The investigator also ought to make
optimum utilisation of resources such as book, magazine, publication sources for gaining
valuable outcome in an effective manner.
P3 WBS
Work break down structure:
3

This can be referred to as an important project deliverables structure in whereby tasks are
broken down in different chucks so that the project team members of Nestle can easily
understand about all the work that need to be carried out by each one in an effective manner
(Mhamed, 2012).
Gantt chart
This can be said to be the bar chart which represent the schedule of project by segregating
the each task with the assigned time so as to complete each task on time with increase in
effectiveness and efficiency (Morris and Geraldi, 2011). Moreover it can be said that it helps in
denoting the start and finish time schedule of project as it includes milestones, dependencies,
task and resources.

P4 Research with the help of qualitative as well as quantitative methods
There are different types of research methods which the researcher can use to carry out
research in an effective and efficient manner and they are explained below:-
Qualitative research methods:
It is also known as explorative research which is used to gain advanced knowledge, skills,
reasons and opinions about a specific topic (oserup, Tan and Toulmin, 2013). Moreover this
research methods helps in developing a hypothesis for quantitative research as it includes
observation, focus groups, interviews etc. Therefore researcher takes this method into
consideration in order to carry out effective project plan as it helps in revealing the perception
and behaviour of target audience related to project plan.
Interview Questions:
 Tell me about yourself ?
 What do you want this job ?
 What do you know about the company ?
Quantitative research method:
This is the method with the help of which researcher solve out the issues and come up
with solutions with the help of statistical and numerical data (Polonsky and Waller, 2018). Thus,
it helps in drawing the behaviour and opinions of sample population which will represent the
whole population. It mainly includes surveys, direct interviews, systematic observations etc.
In the current research, qualitative method of research is used because this will assist in
collecting and gathering appropriate data and information while completing the report.
Primary research method:
In this method fresh and new data is being collected through observations, questionnaires,
interviews etc. which were not even published before in any previous findings or research
6

(Reich, Gemino and Sauer, 2014). Thus, a research takes this method into consideration with the
help of questionnaire so as to gather valuable and reliable information for the project plan.
Secondary research method:
In this type of research method a researcher collect data through different sources which
were already published before like collection through government reports, library, associations,
books, journals etc.
Both primary and secondary method are used for conducting this research so this will assist in
collecting and gathering authentic facts and figures effectively.
Questionnaire: It is defined as a set of questions which are being designed by a researcher so as
to collect the opinions and behaviour of the individual towards the project plan of an
organisation so to as draw valid and best solution whether to implement the project plan or not.
Therefore researchers takes into consideration 40 respondent as a sample size and they are
basically employees and customers of an organisation itself (Pryke and Smyth, 2012).
