The construction process involves a myriad of activities that must be efficiently planned and controlled if any project is to be delivered to meet client expectations with respect to cost, time, and quality.
This module covers essential methods and techniques required for efficient planning and controlling construction activities and for improving productivity of the construction process.
Learning Outcome 1: Apply and critically evaluate project development and planning techniques used in the management and control of construction/civil engineering projects.
Learning Outcome 2: Identify, analyse and critically appraise risk, value and financial management in the context of the built environment.
The Assignment
This assignment aims to test your understanding as to the processes involved in the development and delivery of large complex projects and is a ‘scenario project' based around a similar real-life project
Attached to this assignment is a Powerpoint file that lays out the Scenario for ‘The Plant' and Town and this forms the basis of the assignment
You will be required to carry out the following work;
Task 1 - Read the background and understand the project and then summarise the ethos and rational in 600 words
Task 2 - Explain the structure and key components/skills of a project team capable of delivering this project in 600 words
Task 3 - Produce aGant chart as instructed in the Powerpoint Presentation
(1000 words equivalent)
Task 4 - Produce a project risk schedule with what you consider to be the top 10 project delivery risks, their risk level, and explain briefly why you consider these are the top ten risks - see presentation for full details
(500 words equivalent)
Task 5 - Produce a separate risk schedule of your top 10 risks explaining one method that would allow mitigation of that risk. Give the revised risk level
