3. Project delivery life cycle methodologies
The most popular project delivery life cycle methodologies are Agile, Scrum, Waterfall,
Six Sigma and PMI. Based on the case study, Royale Pizza decided to renovate a pizza shop as
well as buy new equipment for expanding its business to serve food to the customers. The
selected process or methodology is PMI (Project management institute), which guides detailed
onset of project management standards (Heagney 2016). In this particular project of Royale
Pizza, the phases of the delivery life cycle process or methodology are:
Initiation: In this project phase, the project manager identified the business need, problem
and opportunity that the project team can meet with the project goal. The project manager is
undertaking a feasibility study to deliver a solution to the business problem due to a small space
in the shop. They identified the project deliverables and project stakeholders to provide product
based on project goal (Kerzner 2018). As the business case, the shop owners decided to renovate
its shop included flooring, installation, clean-up of kitchen exhausts system as well as an increase
in compressor capability and addition of new equipment.
Planning: After approval of the business case, the entire project is broken down into
smaller tasks and schedules the entire project as per requirement (Kerzner 2017). The identified
project stages with its planned duration and budget are design (1 month and AUS $5,000),
procurement & delivery (2 months and AUS$ 18,000), construction (1 month and AUS$ 7,000),
installation and painting (2months and AUS$ 10,000). Therefore, the total scheduled timeframe
is six months and the total budget is AUS$ 40,000. The timeline and budget are visualized using
a Gantt chart. The equipment required for renovation is also identified to complete the work.

Execution: In this phase, project meetings are conducted to keep work on the right track,
organize the project team, and manage the project timelines plus work based on the project plan.
All project updates are provided to stakeholders (Turner 2016).
Monitoring and controlling: The project team members ensured to meet with time and
quality of their project tasks. They monitored and controlled the project schedule and budget to
keep it on track based on assets plus resources (Kerzner 2019). This phase is used to oversee
project tasks that are approved in scope, on time and budget.
Closure: The project manager determines whether the goals of the project are meeting,
the plan is on time and on a budget plus evaluating the performance of team members. The
project closures are documented and conducted post-implementation review of the final project
plan (Siegelaub 2017). Lessons learned are also provided for the project.
All the project successes are measured using tracking the project activities and its progress.
