Project Plan
Help: The purpose of the Project Plan is to document all managerial aspects of a project that are
required to execute it successfully within its constraints. If some aspects are defined in
separate plans (e.g. Quality Assurance Plan, Configuration Management Plan, Risk
Management Plan, Project Schedule), the Project Plan should refer to these documents.

1. Overview
The paper mainly focuses on the project that mainly reflects on the implementation of
Swedish recycling vehicles in Fingal residential area. It is found that the Coolmine recycling centre
company which is one of the private organizations in Fingal utilizes traditional recycling vehicles that
are big in size and therefore faces difficulty in operating those vehicles on narrow roads. In order to
resolve this issue, the organization wants to implement a fully automated trucks that can be able to
reach every households on narrow roads. It is analyzed that the vehicles generally utilize press
mechanism installed for increasing the load capacity. The main aim of the project is to enhance the
productivity by utilizing various types of compressed machines. The implementation of the recycling
vehicles in Fingal will be completed successfully within 136 days by utilizing budget of around
$618,560.
2. Goals and scope
2.1 Project goals
The main goal of the organization is to implement Swedish recycling vehicles in Fingal
residential area for enhancing the productivity as well as effectiveness of the organization by utilizing
compressed machines. This is generally required to be done so that the trucks can be able to reach of
the household that are located on the narrow Irish roads.

8. Digital media content
The digital media content of the project with their specifications are generally elaborated
below:
Audio: Proper audio about the working as well as requirements of the project are generally
kept so that the usefulness of the Swedish recycling vehicles can be known with the help of the audio.
Images: Images about the entire procedure of recycling must be kept as the content of digital
media so that the people can be able to know about the process that are utilized for recycling the
vehicles.
Videos: Videos about the entire process of recycling must be made so that the entire
procedure of recycling with the help of the Swedish recycling vehicles can be properly understood.
9. Quality Assurance
It is found that in order to assure that the quality of the project is maintained during the
implementation of Swedish recycling vehicles, it is very much necessary to follow steps that are
generally elaborated below:

Quality analysis: Proper quality analysis needs to be undertaken for making sure that proper
quality of the project must be maintained and the project will be capable of recycling by reaching each
of the household on the narrow roads of Irish.
Testing plan: Proper testing plan must be arranged so that the recycling vehicles that is
mainly implemented must be successfully tested which, ensures that the Swedish recycling vehicles
will work successfully and will be able to reach each of the household on the narrow roads of Irish.
10. Documentation
The documentations that are mainly required for the project are generally elaborated below:
User guide: Proper guidance must be documented for the users so that they can be able to
know about the process through which they will generally dumb the garbage for recycling it
successfully.
Tutorials: Proper tutorials must be documented in the form of videos for the drivers so that
they can be able to know about the steps as well as procedures for recycling effectively.
11. Maintenance/support
It is quite necessary to have proper service level agreement which is considered as one of
the contracts between the service provider as well as the end user for defining the service that is
generally expected from the service provider. It is found that the SLAs helps in managing the
expectations of the customers by defining the circumstances under which they are generally not liable
for outrages or various types of performance issues. It is identified that the customers can also get
benefit from SLA so that they can be able to describe the various performance related characteristics
for maintaining the service that is provided with the help of the recycling vehicles.
12. Legal/licenses
The legal rules as well as licenses that are generally required for the project are generally
elaborated below:
User agreements: The vehicle user agreement generally signifies that the driver has been
given a copy of the vehicle management policy as well as motor vehicle operation policy that is
generally agreed for complying all the requirements that are generally needed.
Country requirements: Proper rules as well as regulations related with the vehicles must be
provided so that the users can have proper information regarding the legal rules.
