Part 2: Written Assignment
Write a two- to three-page paper describing the scenario you completed this week, the intent of the simulation, and your lessons learned. Identify a minimum of four what-if assessments that resulted in obtaining a better score and completing the scenario with better results. Explain how proper use of a WBS and Scope Planning Tools is beneficial in achieving project objectives Use peer-reviewed or professionally published sources such as CSU Global library resources to support your findings.
Be sure to organize your writing properly and include the following:
Cover page
Introduction
Body of your work with headings and subheadings
Analysis and recommendations
Conclusion
List of references
Appendix A – Screenshot of confirmation page showing your best simulation score.

To answer the questions, attached are the materials needed for this assignment.
The following two questions below:
1. What areas do you see that they could be at risk for not changing?
2. What recommendations do you have for them to stay competitive?

Please brainstorm three potential projects that you would like to develop in your organizations. The project ideas should be small, allowing you to practice all the necessary elements in this course to design a project that can be further implemented in your organizations.
Using the scoring model from chapter 2, choose one of the three potential project ideas from point 1. You may want to incorporate size and complexity criteria to ensure that the project is both sufficiently involved for you to benefit from many of the techniques in this book, and manageable enough to be completed within a reasonable time frame. Finally, you may need to identify resources to complete the project using a resource matrix, which must include a prioritization matrix. To begin, adhere to the guidelines provided in this section of the textbook. Use the example shown in the section (LADD organization).
Write your final project advance in a word document in APA format. The attached work must be in a word Document, PDF is not accepted.

Assignment Topic
Let’s return to Woody who we first looked at in the MMA in Unit 6.
( http://www.maxwideman.com/papers/woody2000/intro.htm )
Woody has considered your report and has asked that you prepare another for him. Following on from your last report, he has been considering what lessons can be learned and has tasked you to prepare a report.
This report has two parts, please make sure both parts are completed.
The first part asks that with justification you:
 Advise how you would have planned the project given your choice of life cycle and methodology.
 Evaluate and recommend tools that you would use to plan the project.
 Advise what you would monitor including how frequently and what methods you would recommend to monitor and control progress of the project.
 Evaluate methods and make recommendations regarding how you would have approached bringing the project back on schedule.
 Advise how a project should be closed.
In the second part, he has asked you to summarise the role and the responsibilities of the project manager within such a project and to advise the key skills and knowledge required by a person to undertake this role so that he can minimise the risk of future project failure. Given the staff he currently has, would you recommend that he train internal personnel or contract out? If the latter, recommend what type of contract should be in place and why.
It is important to Woody that you justify your choices and recommendations with reference to best practice, theory and research undertaken into effective project management.
In this unit we shall:
 Consider the Project Manager’s role and responsibilities.
 Briefly evaluate some of the key skills and competencies which a project manager may need in practice.
On completion of this unit you will be able to:
 Identify key project manager roles and responsibilities.
 Evaluate the role of the project manager within the wider organisation.
 Evaluate key skills, competencies and knowledge which a Project Manager is likely to need to be effective.
