Project Management Communication Plan for Riverina Agriculture Show

This project management case study focuses on the Riverina Agriculture and Lifestyle Show, specifically examining its communication plan. The assignment delves into the necessity of a communication plan for effective project operations, emphasizing the integration of system development and information processing. It explores different types of communication, including verbal (board meetings, calls) and written (reports, documents), and presents a communication matrix detailing stakeholder roles, influence, and preferred communication methods. The analysis highlights the importance of both verbal and written communications, showing how they facilitate financial and operational data analysis and ensure project progress updates. The reflection section discusses the application of the communication matrix and the value of integrated operations. References to relevant literature on project management and communication are included, providing a comprehensive overview of the subject.

Part 3 Communication Plan
According to Muszynska et al. (2015), the project communication plan is developed for
forming an integration of the requirements and operations of the organization for developing the
effective and improved control of project. The project of Riverina Agriculture and Lifestyle
Show would involve the requirement of developing the effective and improved operations in the
organization. The implication of the project would deploy the use of the system integration for
carrying out the involvement of the operations. As opined by Guzzi et al. (2013), the deployment
of the effective processing would divulge the development of the effective communication. The
Riverina Agriculture and Lifestyle Show project would anticipate the deployment of the
communication for forming the effective control of operations.
3.1 Need of Communication Plan
Kaufman et al. (2014) have pointed that the communication plan serves the purpose of
the effective and improved system development and it would form the improvement of the
operations to implement the existence of the improvement plan. The communication plan is
required in the project for developing the effective processing. The requirements of the
communication plan are,
 To integrate the development of the operations and form the improvement of the system
formation for employing the effective information processing
 To deploy the supplementary information development and formation of the effective
development

2PROJECT MANAGEMENT
 To divide the working operations among the team members of the project for ensuring
the supplementary development of the operations
 To form the analysis of the project development concerns for project and communicating
them to the involved stakeholders
The benefits of making an effective project management plan are for forming the
sufficient improvement plan (Heagney, 2016). The deployment of the integrated system
operations would ensure that project would be formed for critical evaluation of the ongoing
operations and deploy the factors for the determination of the project progress. The progress
would be conveyed to the respective stakeholders. The development of the operations would
form the improvement of the system formation for employing the effective information
processing and the supplementary information processing (Alexandra-Mihaela & Danut, 2013).
The communication would divide the working operations among the team members of the
project for ensuring the supplementary development of the operations. The deployment of the
project integration would involve the sufficient integration of the operations. The processing of
the information would involve the development of the system integration for the development of
the operations. As explained by Muszynska et al. (2015), the communication plan serves the
purpose of the effective and improved system development and it would form the improvement
of the operations to implement the existence of the improvement plan. The communication plan
is required in the project for developing the effective processing.
3.2 Types of Communication in Project
According to Verzuh, (2015), communication in the organization would involve the
development of the effective project integration development. The communication in the project

3PROJECT MANAGEMENT
would deploy the significant development of the operations and implementing the critical
evaluation of the ongoing operations and deploy the factors for the determination of the project
progress. The progress would be conveyed to the respective stakeholders. The development of
the operations would form the improvement of the system formation for employing the effective
information processing and the supplementary information processing with Verbal
communication and Written Conversation.
Verbal Communication- The verbal communication would be deployed for conveying
the messages to the required stakeholder. The communication would be formed for system
integration and development of the operations. The development of the project would comprise
of involving the development of the occasional processing. The verbal communication would
involve the development of strategies and supply the cohesive solution to the communication.
The verbal communication is implied for the development of the integration of the operations for
financial and operational data analysis. The communication would deploy the processing of the
information and developing the flow of information. For example- board meetings, telephonic
calls, and other means of communication.
Written Communication- The written communication is developed for forming the
effective flow of operations and integrates the analysis of the supplementary communication.
The written communication would deploy the development of the processing and it would
involve the development of the effective communication in the organization. The various reports
and documents would involve the development of the project integration management. It is very
important for ensuring that the development of the project would form the feed for analysis of
the tools and methods for effective communication. The communication would be possible by
applying the development functions.

Part 4: Reflection
I have studied the case study of the Riverina Agriculture and Lifestyle Show and develop
the analysis of the effective and improved operations. The communication process is implied for
development of cohesive and improved processing. The communication would improve the
development of the system development and formation of the synthetic and improvised
processing. The study had processed the development of the improvement strategy for implying
the safety of operations. I used the communication matrix for evaluating the development of the
effective operations to form the employment of the operations and processes. It would help in
integrating the operations for forming the conveyance of the development models and integration
of the operations. I have realized that the communication management plan would integrate the

development of the operations and form the improvement of the system formation for employing
the effective information processing. It would also help to deploy the supplementary information
development and formation of the effective development and divide the working operations
among the team members of the project for ensuring the supplementary development of the
operations. I compared the verbal and written communication for forming the analysis of the
improvement system development. The study had helped me to form the inference that the
written process is very important for ensuring that the development of the project would form the
feed for analysis of the tools and methods for effective communication. On the other hand the
verbal communication is implied for the development of the integration of the operations for
financial and operational data analysis.
