Guide to Files

  

  • The  Case Study file attached here and the original case study document from  Week Two can be leveraged for this assignment. This will provide you  some context to the evaluation you will be using and allow you to make  some reasonable assumptions about the context of the changes to  the project.

     

Using the information gathered from the original case study, and the new information provided, write a 4 – 5 page paper using the following structure:

  • Report / Executive Summary – Summarize  the finding of the impact of the change briefly (1 or 2 paragraphs);  this should include the finding of your report, as well as, your  recommendations to your sponsor regarding the implementation of the  change. It should be concise and direct.
  • Current Status of Project – In  this section, you want to provide details regarding the current status.  Which indicators from the case study are you leveraging to describe the  current status?
  • Identify any leading vs. the lagging indicators in your analysis.  
  • Provide an overview of the change process  you will follow to incorporate the change including the approval  process.  Will there be a change control board?  Will the PM review  prior to submission for approval?  Does the sponsor need to approve your  change request form?  Consider including a flow chart and a summary  explaining the flow chart.
  • Recommendations Based  on your analysis of the change, tell us what areas of the project are  of concern. Is cost or time a concern in these areas? Does the scope  need be considered? What are some possible solutions for cost and  schedule related impacts of the change that might be applicable?
