Project on Renovating a Kitchen Setup: Detailed Planning

This project provides a comprehensive plan for renovating a kitchen, detailing the various stages from initiation to completion. It includes a project description outlining the goals and objectives, estimated duration, and the approximate number of work breakdown structure (WBS) activities. The statement of work outlines deliverables, required resources, and governing factors such as budget and deadlines. The WBS breaks down the project into manageable tasks, including design, renovation, and installation phases. A workflow diagram visualizes the project's timeline and dependencies, while a risk analysis table identifies potential risks and mitigation strategies. The project covers various aspects, from designing the demolition plan, procuring materials, installing appliances, and conducting tests. The project is designed to be completed within 6 months and a budget of $52,000. The successful completion of this project involves stakeholder approval and payment procedures, ensuring the renovated kitchen is ready for use, and the project is signed off. The project concludes with a bibliography of resources used.

2PROJECT ON RENOVATING A KITCHEN SETUP
1. Project Description
This project is based on the topic of ‘Kitchen Renovation’. This project is based on
detailing the structure of work that would be done during the renovation phase of an existing
kitchen. This project would be extremely be useful for the generation of a vast number of ideas
that could be implemented during designing of the schedule of the project. Each of the tasks that
would be performed within the project have to be dealt with perfection in order to complete the
renovation project within the proper time.
The project based on renovating an existing kitchen would require an intense form of
designing and planning. During the initiation phase of the project, the project manager who
would be entitled for the project would be responsible for designing a plan for conducting the
entire set of activities within the later part of the project. A proper kind of source of investment
would be required for conducting the entire list of activities. After the investor would secure the
source of funding, the project manager would select the proper interior designers who would be
responsible for renovating the entire kitchen. After conducting the research on selection of the
proper interior designer, the procurement of materials needed to be installed in the new kitchen
would be chosen and assembled together.
In the next phase of the project, the interior designer would hire different contractors and
thus start with the work of the project. They would clean the interiors of the kitchen and thus
make a proper form of work setup for the project. The interiors of the kitchen would be properly
cleaned and then a new coating of paint would be applied. The electric supply would be checked
by a group of efficient electricians and then the previously bought appliances would be installed
within the kitchen. After a proper installation of the cabinetry, refrigerator, dishwasher and

3PROJECT ON RENOVATING A KITCHEN SETUP
microwave within the kitchen, each of the appliances would be checked. This step would be
highly required for checking that the appliances are in proper working condition and would suit
the needs of the homeowner. After a proper check of each of the appliances, the contractors
would again be called for cleaning the entire trash that had been made within the kitchen during
the work of renovation. This would take a few amount of time to complete the phase.
After finishing off with the cleaning part of the kitchen, the project manager would hand
over the newly renovated kitchen to the homeowner for their approval. During the period of
approval, each of the documents that were made during the design phase of the project would be
signed by the homeowner and thus the project would reach till its completion. The procedure of
each of the payments would be made to the recipients based on their inputs within the project.
The homeowner would also check whether the project has been completed within the limited
time period and budget. Based on the entire success of the project, the project would be signed
off and thus the entire renovated kitchen would be ready for use. The successful completion of
the project is highly needed in order to receive a proper feedback from the stakeholders involved
within the project.
2. Estimated Duration of Project
The estimated duration of the project is 6 months.
3. Approximate Number of WBS Activities
The approximate number of WBS activities is 50.
4. Statement of Work
In the statement of work based on the ‘Kitchen Renovation’ project, the entire list of
detail of work that would be done within the project would be included. The entire set of

deliverables included within the project are – Real-time updates on weekly status and financial
reports of each of the phases. The project would also be completed as per the required success
criteria.
The project would be completed within 6 months.
The individual tasks that would lead to the completion of the entire project deliverable
are – Project Initiation, Designing of demolition of existing kitchen setup, designing the new
setup as per the plan, Installation of appliances, testing of equipment, Procedure of Clean-up and
Closure of Project.
The resources required within the project are – Project Manager, Kitchen Interior
Designer, Sub-Contractors and Loan Officer. The different equipment that would be required
within the new developed kitchen are refrigerator, dishwasher, kitchen chimney and stove.
The project would mainly be governed by the homeowner who has assigned the task of
renovation to the project manager and designer. However, the project would need to be finished
within a limited budget of $52,000. The deadline for the entire project is also limited to a period
of 6 months.
