Project Plan for Western Mining's Brisbane Branch Office Network

This project plan outlines the implementation of a network for Western Mining's new branch office in Brisbane. The plan, designed for Pacific IT Solutions, includes defining goals such as designing an efficient network layout, incorporating specific requirements, and ensuring high security. The scope encompasses network layout completion, with key activities including discussions, project plan preparation, procurement, implementation, testing, documentation, and sign-off. The plan details project milestones, budget considerations, constraints, assumptions, risks, and dependencies. Key stakeholders, including the client, sponsor, project manager, and team members, are identified. The project aims to provide Western Mining with a functional and secure network infrastructure, addressing potential challenges like procurement delays and security breaches, and ensuring project completion within the allocated timeframe and resources. The project plan includes approval signatures to finalize the project.
