2ADVANCED PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
1. Project introduction and basic parameters
This report depicts the role of project construction project management tools and techniques those
are required to be managed by any assigned project manager to successfully implement the project. In this
report the project about construction of a “shed at 94 Western Beach Road in Geelong, Victoria 3220,
[94WBR-shed project]”. In order to successfully implement the project necessary actions are required to
be taken by the project manager and the developed project team. For this particular project a 2D blueprint
using the concept of Building Information Modeling is prepared and approve by the architect and the
project managers. The scope of the project is to prepare a large shed on the property. In addition to this,
the project also includes the concept of some minor demolition work over the backyard and construction
of a large shed. In order to obtain successful outcomes and commercial as well as sustainable revenue
from the marketplace it is necessary for the construction team to consider all needful tools and techniques
for managing the project. Apart from this, there are certain project management parameters also available
in the market those are required to be considered by the project manager.
The key parameters those are to be used for the successful implementation of the 94WBR-shed
project include-project charter, project time, project quality, scope, project risk and project cost. In
addition other two things are there those are to be measured accordingly for the successful executions of
the construction project are proper communication plan and HR management plan.
2. Project management approach used for managing a project
Different project management approaches are available in the market those are needed to be
followed by the contractors, architects and the constriction project manager for implementing the
94WBR-shed project. The most commonly used project management approaches are agile, scrum,
waterfall, etc. based on the types and size of the project the project managers should choose the most
suitable management approach. Basically, for the construction project the most commonly used project
management approach is waterfall model. This a traditional project development life cycle which is

3ADVANCED PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
comprises of five phases such as-initiation, planning, design, testing and implementation. Though, it is a
software development project lifecycle methodology but still in the construction sector also this approach
is used by the construction project managers. However, this project does not end up at the closure phase
as it needs continuous improvement plan in terms of post implementation maintenance. With post project
maintenance planning the 94WBR-shed project can become more sustainable in nature. In case of
iterative waterfall model the developers can include change management plan according to the changing
requirements of the contractors or stakeholders. Though in iterative waterfall model each and every phase
is interrelated to each other but still additional changes can be incorporated simultaneously. This
construction model always shows a linear approach. In this approach a large project is broken down into
small segments along with the kick off of the phase that are dependent upon the completion of the
preceding one.
3. Needful tools and techniques those are to be used
In order to implement any project different tools and techniques are available in the market those
are needed to be implemented by the project managers. The tools and techniques are as follows:
Project management tools and techniques:
Planning and project scheduling techniques
 Work Breakdown Structure
 Project milestones
 Project network development
 Precedence diagram
 CPM
 PERT chart
 GERT chart

4ADVANCED PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
 Material bills
 Workshop documents
 Time and cost benefit analysis
 Resource allocation and resource leveling
 Computing application
 Risk register
Project control techniques
 Status report presentation and meeting on a regular basis
 Work type cost structuring
 Resource type cost structuring
 Trend analysis
 Earned value analysis
1. Work Breakdown Structure
Basic Information about the tool: WBS is used to breakdown a large task into small segments.
For each of the sub activities different resources are also allocated. It is the role of the project manager to
manage the task by improving the overall performance of each allocated resources. With the successful
application of the WBS tool the 94WBR-shed project will be able to deliver an accurate costing,
scheduling and resource panning approach to the consumers.
The user of this tool: Project manager
Justification: Throughout the implementation of the 94WBR-shed project the financial control
can be achieved through proper expenditure that may also track the allocated task budget. The regular
progress of the project can also be tracked accordingly with this tool. Over the accountability the benefits

of the WBS are completely controlled. For scheduling timing and developing the effectiveness also it is
very much helpful. The organizational structure of the construction projects is given below:

Gantt chart:
The Gantt chart is another construction tool that is utilized by the construction project managers
to manage the project time scale, project resource estimation and graphical representation of the task
schedule. The progress of the project is managed appropriately with the help of this tool. On te other
hand the overall project complexity also gets reduced with this tool. Thus the usage of the Gantt chart is
much helpful for the small projects and not for a very large project.
The user of this tool: Project manager

6ADVANCED PROJECT MANAGEMENT:
Justification: For the 94WBR-shed project mainly for illustrating the start date, end date and task
duration management the Gantt chart is used by the project manager. A realistic project timeframe can be
produced with the help of this tool.
Cash flow statement: The cash flow statement of 94WBR-shed project is used to track the overall
budget flow of the organization. Among the income statement this can also produce a financial statement
for the construction project.
User: Finanace manager
Justificationl In ordercto prepare the 94WBR-shed project the finance manager has used the cash
flow statement. It helped the finane manager to track the progress of the project according to the
resources allocated. Considering the lengeth of the project the daily construction activity is prepared.
Risk register: This is another important construction toll that is wudeky used by the project
managers to identify, prioritize and mitigate the risks accordingly. For the construction project the poor
safety measures and low margin time management is another risk that should be mitigated by the prject
manager. The risks associated to the construction project include poor cost records, time completion and
low margin as well as poor safety, massive pressure on health and high level of competition.
User: Risk manager
Justification: This particular constriction project management tool is used by the project
managers to identify, analyze and mitigate the risks those may interupt the success of any project. For thi
project the safety measures are also understaken to make sure that the risks are all mitigated..

4.1 Scope management plan of the 94WBR-shed project
The scope of the project is to construct a shed at the on construction of a shed at 94 Western
Beach Road in Geelong, Victoria 3220 that is better known as [94WBR-shed project]. In addition to this,

construction of a large shed on the nominated property. Apart from this, before beginning the construction
work a blueprint of the project is prepared and presented to the contractors. It is necessary that, before the
project initiation the contractor and the project manager approve the construction blueprint. The blueprint
will be prepared using the concept of Building information Modelling (BIM).
