project planning

profileb67

 The fundamental mission of a project is to create value for the client, by way of meeting the specifications for the deliverable of the project, which in turn will satisfy a specific strategic objective of the enterprise. The planning documents of the project include the specifics of crafting the deliverable itself, as well as proactive guidelines for involving the stakeholders in the decision processes of the project. Planning the project will begin with a clear understanding of the client’s strategic and financial objectives. Then, on the basis of that information, and in the light of historical data from similar projects, estimates will be made for the amount of resources required for the project, the total cost of the project, the total duration of the project, and risks that might impact the implementation and success of the project. The skeletal framework for project plans will be provided by a hierarchical structure, which is called the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). Although the WBS can be developed using activities or resources, the most logical method for developing the WBS is the deliverable basis 


 Stakeholder List According to PMBOK (PMI, 2013), project stakeholders are individuals, groups, or organization who may affect, be affected by, or perceive themselves to be affected by a decision, activity, or outcome of a project. 


 Vandelay Industries is going to host a “Q-school” qualifying golf tournament in Asheville, NC at the Grove Park Inn. This Q-School tournament will be one of the feeder tournaments of the PGA’s Web.com Tour.  


 Develop a list of at least 30 stakeholders for the golf tournament: 

  List only specific, relevant, and meaningful, stakeholders (no generic, frivolous, or fictitious, stakeholders) 


 Make an educated guess for the nature of the impact of each stakeholder on the project. Be specific on the nature, ie: interest in the project, what and how they affect the project, level of impact 


 Divide the stakeholder list into 5-7categories  Make an educated guess for the overall impact of each category on the project. Be clear and specific on the nature and level of impact.
