WOODY 2000 PROJECT (Wideman, M., n.d.

) Woody 2000 project analysis is based on the book 'Effective Project Management: Traditional,

Agile, Extreme' (Wysocki, 2009). Costs and time for obtaining mandatory inspections and permits used in work are based on research of various costs and time required for those services in BC, Canada, mostly for City Pit Meadows (2007) and City Vancouver (2011). DEFINITION CONDITION OF SATISFACTION (Wysocki, 2009, pp52-56) 1. Obtaining required documentation; 2. Production capacity area enlarged by the equivalent of 25% of existing production capacity; 3. Installation of air conditioning for facility; 4. Dust free paint and finishing shop installation; 5. Additional compressor capacity installation; 6. Installation of semi-automatic woodworking production train; 7. Passing trough all mandatory inspections; 8. Budget $ 15,000,000.-; 9. Project duration 18 months PLAN CONDUCTING PLANNING SESSION 1. Create WBS including Activity List 2. Subject matter experts develop further decomposition 3. Estimate task duration and resource needs 4. Construct project network diagram 5. Determine critical path 6. Revision and approval of completion date 7. Finalization of resource schedule

RISK IDENTIFICATION & MITIGATION Risks a. Weather conditions in BC weather, especially depending on where is Someplace may be located, during the winter time may have unpredictable consequences on works execution and, therefore, schedule as well. b. Schedule schedule is calculated with minimal flexibility. That is the reason to watch execution, delivery and mandatory inspections closely. In order to do that frequent audits should be performed in order to control development of the projected plan and in order to enable continuous analysis which may improve execution in the future. C c. Obtaining mandatory licenses and permits timely Mitigation of the risks a. Weather considering that most of construction works will be during the period when is abundance of snow and very cold, we should provide for covers and physical protection of work site b. Schedule watching closely execution of the scheduled tasks, in the case that crucial tasks may fall behind the schedule, we shall use increased workforce round the clock as budget is providing maneuvering space for it. c. Mandatory licenses and permits S&P schedule is planned the way that allowing some spare time for obtaining mandatory licenses and permits and secure them as required RISK MONITORING AND CONTROL Upon identification, assessment of probability and impact of possible risk is made, risks shall be noted. Risk log will be formed, stating ID number, description, owner, action to be taken and outcome (Wysocki, 2010, pp188-189). CRITICAL PATH There are few tasks on critical path, Project and Planning, Semi Automated Wood Train software development, Foundation Construction Preparation, Erection of I-beams for construction of extension, Roof and Walls construction and fitting and preparation of Semi-automated Wood Train preparation, which were allowed for extra time in addition to calculated requirement for execution in amount 10-12%. Most of the task on the critical path may be also under influence of weather conditions. REVISION AND APPROVAL OF COMPLETION TIME Revision of the current time schedule is not required. FINALIZATION OF RESOURCE SCHEDULE Schedule as shown in Gantt chart does not require changes in resource schedule and at this point there is no need for requesting additional resources.
