Project Plan: Western Australia Petrol Tank Improvement Project

This project management assignment presents a comprehensive plan for improving the health, safety, and environmental conditions of unleaded petrol storage tanks in Western Australia. The project involves addressing issues like tank leakages and ensuring compliance with safety standards. The assignment details the project's overview, including the implementation plan, which encompasses risk identification, stakeholder engagement, and organizational structure. It also outlines the challenges in the implementation plan, such as managing pollution and resource allocation. Furthermore, the assignment provides a detailed management plan covering time, cost, and quality management, including resource allocation and project performance evaluation. The project uses various methodologies for evaluating success and failure and concludes with a project closure phase and references.

1. Project Overview:
The Western Australia government is looking forward to design a project plan for improving
the health, safety and environmental condition for storing the unleaded petrol in the different
capacity of tanks. The conditions of the tanks are not good for storing the ULP. The patching
is required for resolving the leakages in the tanks. The purpose of this paper is to develop the
implementation plan and management plan to manage the storage of the petrol successfully.
2. Implementation Plan:
The implementation plan focuses on analysing the risks and uncertainty associated with the
project, development of the organization structure, and development of the stakeholder
engagement plan (PM4Dev, 2007).

Challenges in the implementation plan:
The challenges which comes forward in the development of the project repairing system for
improving the condition of the tanks:
 Identification of the leakages part in the tanks 1, 2, and 3
 Cleaning of the tank
 Rising level of pollution from highly flammable vapours
 Poor condition of health and safety standards
 Managing supply and demand of the resources at site location
 Managing chaos and conflicts among the working team due to the difference in
culture and languages (Wilson, 2012)
 Non-ethical behaviour at work site
 Resistance from the local people in undergoing the cleaning and painting of the tanks
4. Management Plan
The systematic approach should be undertaken for completion of the painting and repairing
of the tanks effectively. The proper management of the activities helps in minimizing the
level of risks and uncertainties associated with the project. The focus should be given on
analysing the critical factors of the developed project schedule so that overrunning of time
and cost can be effectively managed (Rauber, 2014). The quality standards and control policy
framework should be developed for managing the painting work at site location. The project
can be successfully completed by deploying the effective resource utilization plan.
