Questions:

1. Prepare a formal Statement of Work (SOW) for your selected project. The SOW should be presented in the format of a formal business report. The SOW must include headings and appropriate content for the following items:

Problem statement
Identify the project objectives
Define the complete scope of the project
• List all of the critical project deliverables
• Identify project stakeholders
• The responsibility matrix
• Project constraints
• Project assumptions
• Communication plan
• Measurement of success

2. Prepare a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the project, based on your ‘Statement of Work’ on (i.e. Part A). The WBS can be produced using MS Project or a similar project management software or by means of any other spreadsheet or word-processing program (e.g. MS Excel or MS Word). In addition to the WBS, provide a description of its content including justification for your decisions where necessary (i.e., summary tasks, work packages, sequencing, dependencies, milestones e.t.c).
The Project Plan must include the following items (where appropriate):

• Project activities/tasks, including:
• Summary Tasks
• Work Packages
• A breakdown of the activity/task schedule, including the following:
• Start / Finish Times
• Sequencing
• Dependencies
• Milestones
• Critical Activities
• Resources for the project

3. Prepare a ‘Risk Management Plan’ based on Parts A and B. See the notes in the subject modules for an explanation of Risk Management. The Risk Management Plan should be presented both in text form (i.e. as a written report) and graphically (i.e. as a table). It should address the following items:

• Risk Profile
A risk profile lists all identified risks to the project that could potentially occur, and/or impact on the project.
? Response Strategy
A response strategy outlines the evaluation of each risk following investigation and deliberation by members of the project team, or at the very least; the project manager. For each risk, the response strategy may include the following (see page 118 of the prescribed text book for details- Dwyer et al. 2013):
o An evaluation or rating of the likelihood of the risk occurring or eventuating.
o An evaluation or rating of the likely impact to the project if the risk occurs or eventuates.
o A decision as to whether a contingency needs to be in place should the risk occur along with
a description of the actual contingency (this may include potential steps to mitigate the risk or its effects, or actions to be implemented following the eventuation of the risk).
? Mechanism(s) for Risk Control
Risk Control identifies how the project will be monitored to determine if a risk has occurred or is about to occur, and how the relevant contingency will actually be put into practice.

? Ensure that you provide a control mechanism for each of your identified risks.

Answer:

Part A: Statement of work

Problem statement

The XYZ clinic is based in north side of Melbourne. The clinic does not have patient appointment booking system. The clinic only use walk-in to clinic system that means first arrived will be seen first. This leads patients to wait longer to see their desire doctor.

Project constraints

The major constraints that are related to the project are unlike any other project that is Time, Scope and Cost. The detailed explanation and relationship of the constraints are provided below:

Time – It is directly related to cost as if there is delay in the project and it is not going as per the schedule then more budget will be required to complete the project. Further, if there is any changes in scope of the project then it will require more time to complete.

Scope – The changes in project scope may lead to delay or over budgeting which could eventually lead to failure of the project. The time required for implementing changes in project scope could lead to increase in time and budget for the project.

Cost – Cost is another essential factor and it is directly proportional to time and scope as changes in both have a direct impact on cost. The changes in cost may lead to delay or failure of project.

Project assumptions

Adequate time and budget is available to complete the project.
Adequate resources are available to complete the project.
Technical issues can be resolved with immediate effect.

Project team risk – This risk relates to issues that may occur within the project team members during execution of the project.
Strategic risk – This type of risk involves the threats related to strategic planning and development of the organization from future perspective.

Response Strategy

The response strategies that can be applied for identified risks related to chosen project for implementation of Patient appointment booking system are as below:

Avoidance: This strategy relates to removing the tasks that causes risks in the project and it is the easier way to mitigate risks in a project.
Acceptance: This strategy includes planning of risks identified for the project and if no other response strategy can be identified then accepting the risks will be sufficient to proceed with the project.
Monitor and Prepare: It involves development of plans for monitoring the triggers by which risks are activated and immediate implementation of action plans after occurrence of the risk.
Mitigation: It comprises of measures for reducing likelihood of risk occurrence and reducing the impact of risk.
Transference: It involves transferring the risks onto another party means the consequences of risks will be impose upon third party which is not easy and often overlooked.

Mechanism(s) for Risk Control

Mitigation strategies: The risks can be controlled by implementing mitigation strategies so that consequence of risks can be minimized. The mitigation of risks can be done through different techniques as mentioned in the previous section. The mitigation strategies for risks can help to achieve project success so that desired outcomes are in accordance with the objectives and project requirements.

Contingency planning: This method for controlling risk is termed as development of a plan to manage the outcome if it is other than the expected or actual. This planning can be used for managing exceptional risks although it may have catastrophic consequences.

Backup and Disaster recovery: This control mechanism refers to the planning for managing the outcomes of a risk in case such severe risk occurs in a project. This planning relates to backup and recovery to previous state of work in case risks have impact on progress of the project.
