ISSUES
During stage 1, BuildyBrick was appointed by the procurement team manager as the main contractor for the project. The project is now in stage 3 and BuildyBrick is part way through the site preparation. Following an environmental survey report, BuildyBrick will have to delay the site clearance by several weeks to enable protected amphibians to be relocated. There are two options to deal with this issue. The first is to wait for BuildyBrick to clear the site, but this will take longer. The second is to hire an additional contractor to clear the site more quickly, but this will cost more. Both of these options can be completed within cost and time tolerances, but appointing an additional contractor is beyond the project manager’s delegated authority.
Here are three actions related to the resolution of this issue.
Which role (A–E) should be responsible for each action?
Choose only ONE role for each action. Each role can be used once, more than once, or not at all.
During stage 2, the Heritage Director, acting as senior user, reviews the design and raises a concern that the previously requested heritage trail has not been addressed.
Is this an appropriate use of the ‘give ongoing direction’ activity, and why?
A product description contains only the following quality specification for the car-parking component: “The shopping centre will include an underground car park.”
Is this an effective application of the quality practice, and why?
At project closure, the project manager prepares the end project report, noting that the project exceeded its budget by 10% and planned duration by 15% because of additional heritage protection work. The findings are summarized for the project board and shared with the LOB Portfolio Director so that other projects can learn from them.
Which practice is being applied?
In stage 4, the Heritage Director delegates a review of the inspection arrangements to the Heritage Manager. The Heritage Manager will work with the BuildyBrick CEO and the project manager, then report whether the planned inspections will provide adequate assurance about impacts on historic buildings.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘define roles, responsibilities and relationships’ principle, and why?
During stage 2, the project board agrees that the underground car park should contain 15 rapid-charging spaces, with a scope tolerance permitting delivery of no fewer than 10 spaces. The project manager includes this tolerance in the relevant work package agreed with the team manager.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘manage by exception’ principle, and why?
During the ‘starting up a project’ process, the project manager works with key business, user, and supplier stakeholders to co-create the project product description, clarify the shopping centre’s scope and agree its quality expectations and acceptance criteria.
What is the MAIN benefit of co-creating the project product description in this way?
While preparing the project plan during initiation, the project manager proposes that stage 2 should end at the Council’s financial year-end. This would allow the decision on funding for stage 3 to coincide with the Council’s annual budget process.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘manage by stages’ principle, and why?
During stage 1, the City Council purchasing team must prepare the contract that will govern BuildyBrick’s later design and construction work. The project manager agrees with the purchasing team the products, time and cost for this work package.
Which practice is being applied through the ‘controlling a stage’ process?
Before accepting the stage 2 design work package, the BuildyBrick team manager needs to determine how the design team will be organized and controlled and whether the work can be achieved within the stated constraints.
During which ‘managing product delivery’ activity should this be done?
During initiation, the project executive asks the project manager to evaluate a credible business option that omits the underground car park. The project manager includes an investment appraisal of that option in the full business case, despite the main contractor’s objection.
Is this an appropriate application of the business case practice, and why?
During stage 4, the business identifies a need for additional funding to extend LouisShopping advertising beyond project closure so that more businesses are attracted to Louistown. The project board must communicate the business need and resulting direction to the project team.
Which role should lead this business-related ongoing direction?
At the end of the initiation stage, the Regeneration Manager submits the project plan and business case for review. The Portfolio Director releases funding for both stages 2 and 3 and instructs the project manager to provide only a progress report at the end of stage 2, without a project board decision before stage 3 begins.
Is this an appropriate application of the ‘manage by stages’ principle, and why?
During stage 3, the project manager forecasts that the stage-level recycling tolerance will be exceeded. The project manager records the matter in the issue register and sends only an issue report to the project board.
Is this an appropriate application of the progress practice, and why?
During ‘closing a project’, the project manager updates the arrangements that specify how and when the Head of the Portfolio Office will measure the increase in business opportunities after LouisShopping enters operational use.
During which closing activity should this be done?
Near the end of stage 2, the supplier planned for the utilities and systems work becomes financially unstable and a replacement subcontractor is selected for stage 3. The project manager recommends that the replacement subcontractor’s account manager should represent the supplier interest as senior supplier.
During which ‘managing a stage boundary’ activity should this recommendation be developed?
