Construction Management Project of Volcano World, Semester 2

This construction management project focuses on the development of Volcano World, a recreational park. The project encompasses various aspects of project management, including integration, quality, scope, resource, schedule, communication, cost, procurement, risk, stakeholder, and environmental management. It details the project's deliverables, milestones, and key performance indicators (KPIs). The project adheres to ISO standards and Australian standards and codes, with a focus on quality assurance and continuous process improvement. Scope management includes design briefs, standards, assumptions, and constraints. Resource management covers organizational structures, work task resources, industrial awards, and training programs. The project also includes detailed schedule management, communication protocols, and cost management breakdown. Procurement, risk, stakeholder, and environmental management strategies are also outlined, along with a SWOT analysis. The project aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the construction management process for the development of Volcano World, ensuring the project's successful completion within the specified timeframe and budget.

2CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT PROJECT OF VOLCANO WORLD
1. Project Integration Management
Deliverables – The project is based on delivering a recreational park that would comprise
of every basic necessities. The project would also be completed in the given time frame and also
within the estimated budget.
Milestones – The certain milestones for the project are:
 Approval of the project management plan and financial plan
 Completion the setup phase for the project
 Completion of the implementation phase
Key Performance Indicators – The certain KPI’s for the project are:
Scope – The components include: a course for treetop adventure, swimming lagoon and
course for white water rapids, general infrastructure and facilities, management of event for the
celebration of Utopia National Day.
Time – The time taken for the completion of the project is 389 days.
Cost – The cost incurred for the project is AUD $ 497,040
Risk – Construction related risks such as wrong estimation of costs, resources and many
others could affect the project.
Measure of Success – The measurement of success for the project would be measured
based on the achievement of each of the ideas generated during the start of the project.

2. Project Quality Management
ISO Standards – In accordance to the construction of Volcano World, the ISO 9000
standard could be defined as perfect to progress over the project stages. Different forms of risks
may arise in any construction project. Hence, the standard could help in reducing the amount of
complexity. The standard proposes an informal form of inspection and a qualified test system
that would perform a thorough check over the system and the end product.
Australian Standards and Codes (ASC) – The National Construction Code (NCC)
Series was primarily proposed by the Australian Buildings Code Board (ABCB). They comprise
of the Building Code of Australia (BCA), which covers the aspects of buildings such as sheds,
houses and many others. The other part is the Plumbing Code of Australia (PCA), which covers
the aspect of drainage and plumbing in regards to every class of building.
Quality Assurance – This is defined as a major component for checking the quality of
systems. During the planning and design over the project, the project manager would be
responsible for designing the plan for the entire project.
Reducing Process Complexity – The project deals with the various ways in which the
complexity could be reduced from the project. In order to deal with the certain ways, the
concerned project team would work together to plan the most appropriate ways in which the
project could be designed.
Acceptance Criteria – The project would be finally accepted by the UNHCR, which is
the governing body of UTOPIA. The final project outcomes would be accepted by UNHCR by
checking over each of the aspects. They would also ensure whether each of the deliverables have
been made as per the standards of acceptance.

4CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT PROJECT OF VOLCANO WORLD
Continuous Process Improvement – The factor of CPI could be measured by UNHCR
based on the certain objectives.
 Maintaining good communication between the staff members
 Measurement and evaluation of work progress based on certain benchmarks and KPIs.
 Development training sessions for the staff involved within the recreational park.
3. Project Scope Management
Scope Baseline (kpi variable) – The scope baseline is being referred as the version for
the scope statement, WBS and the associated WBS dictionary. The KPI could be defined as a
certain metric that would have the ability for directly putting an impact over the cash flow and
measuring conversions.
Design brief – The project based on the design of a recreational park, Volcano World
would be accommodated with well-designed facilities. This park would feature the best and
world-class facilities. Different adventure courses would also be provided for the benefit of the
people visiting the park. The other objective for the project is to provide exclusive enjoyment for
the Utopian citizens.

5CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT PROJECT OF VOLCANO WORLD
Standards – The necessity of standards within the construction project of the recreational
park would be highly important. Hence, the ISO 9000 standard would be highly useful as it
would form some documents in which the different benchmarks would be classified.
Assumptions and Constraints – The assumptions for the project could be classified as:
1. The project would facilitate with each of the defined scope variables.
2. The project will be completed within the deadline and budget.
The constraints for the project would be classified as:
1. The project would not cover a tourist catalogue for the display of every activity.
4. Project Resource Management

6. Project Communication Management
Project management – The designers of the work would design a 3D model of the park
in order to gain a proper form of approval from the UNHCR. They would also maintain a proper
documentation in order to note the specific areas and sections that would be included within the
plan.
Communication Protocols – Any form of communication that would be maintained
within the project would be managed on an external and internal basis. The internal
communication would be maintained by face-to-face communication, documentation and
distributing pamphlets. The external communication would be maintained with the help of
emails and video calling.
