What you must do -

The following tasks are required to be carried out:

LO1: Establish project aims, objectives and timeframes based on the chosen theme.

Before commencing your project, you are required to devise project aims and objectives for a chosen scenario.

As part of planning the project, produce a project management plan that covers aspects of cost, scope, time, quality, communication, risk and resources. Similarly, as part of organizing the project into manageable sections, you are required to produce a work breakdown structure and a Gantt chart to provide timeframes and stages for completion. Finally, to convince the management team, you are recommended to produce a comprehensive project management plan, milestone schedule and project schedule for monitoring and completing the aims and objectives of the project.

LO2: Conduct small-scale research, information gathering and data collection to generate knowledge to support the project.

Now that the project aims and objectives have been established, you are required to carry out a small-scale research by applying qualitative and quantitative research methods appropriate for meeting project aims and objectives. You should evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the different research methods applied. It is important to demonstrate your ability to carry a small-scale research, by critically evaluating the project management process and appropriate the research methodologies you used in the research.

LO3: Present the project and communicate appropriate recommendations based on meaningful conclusions drawn from evidence findings and /or analysis.

Having demonstrated your ability to collect data, you are required to analyse the data using appropriate tools and techniques. You should then communicate appropriate recommendations as a result of data analysis to draw valid and meaningful conclusions.

Your senior management would benefit from the recommendations, so you should evaluate the selection of appropriate tools and techniques you used to analyse the data.

LO4: Reflect on the value gained from conducting the project and its usefulness to support sustainable organisational performance.

Having successfully completing the project, you should now reflect on the value of undertaking the research to meet both the organisation's objectives and your own learning and performance. You should also evaluate the value of the project management process to meet the organisation's stated objectives and to support your own learning and performance.

To support the justifications of the recommendations you suggested and to demonstrate your learning during the project, your senior managers would like you to critically evaluate and reflect on the results of the project, the decision-making process or any changes you would make to the initial project management plan if you were to undertake a similar project in future.
