Assignment Task

Formal Dinner Party
You and your business partner own a catering company. You have been employed to cater for a formal dinner party for 10 people in the client’s home as a special New Year’s Eve celebration. 

Part 1: Define the Project

• As part of your initial assessment of this project, you prepare a project scope plan using the template in Appendix A. 
• List any questions that will enabled you to clarify the project parameters (e.g.: scope, time, costs, quality, resourcing, risks, legislation, procurement, reporting).
• Provide an organisational/project structure chart including all stakeholders and the lines of authority.

Part 2: Develop a Project Plan

• You need to consult with the project team when planning the project. List 4 aspects on which you would consult the project team including who you would consult. 
• What legislation will you need to be aware of when undertaking the project? Give two examples. 
• You must now create a project plan (a schedule, budget and risks) – a template is provided in Appendix B. In addition you need to provide:
• work breakdown structure
• a Gantt chart (there are many free Gantt chart tools on the Internet or this may be hand drawn)
• The roles and responsibilities of the Project team.
• Explain how you would obtain approval of your project plan and from whom. 

Part 3: Administering and Monitoring the Project

• To maintain and improve the progress of the project all stakeholders must be aware of their responsibilities and the tasks assigned to them. Discuss how you will ensure that this occurs.
• List two concerns of the project team in this phase of the project and your plans to address these concerns. One concern should be with respect to achieving timelines and the other with respect to achieving quality. 
• To reduce the risk of the project going overtime or over budget due to unforseen problems you design the project control processes.
• These are processes – you need to include the relevant stakeholders, what they need to do at each step and when as well as required record keeping for managing/executing the project (to make sure the project goes to the plan) – approx. three or four lines per dot point for:
• scope
• time
• finances
• resources (human and non-human)
• Quality – or use the Quality template in Appendix C.
• Risks.
