Assessment Task 2: Team Project Plan
Part A: Written Report
In a team consisting of no more than 4 students, choose a ‘Business Case’ and prepare a Project Plan of a firm.
For students at Mt Helen and partner locations in Australia, you need to select a firm that is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX). For students at international partners you are to select a firm listed on the main stock exchange in your country. Listed firms give students far greater access to data—for example, they are required to publish Annual Reports.
The Project Plan must include:
- front title sheet
- executive summary
- table of contents
- project overview/business request/introduction
- scope statement
- work breakdown structure (WBS)
- preliminary schedule including assigned resources (Gantt chart)
- project network diagram
- risk management plan
- summary budget
- Appendices
- Bibliography/Reference List
- PM Team Contract
- PM Meeting Notes
Identify key milestones and deliverables, and prepare the first status report for the project. The team will present a summary of the selected business case, project plan and status report to the class. The group activity will be marked both on content and delivery.
