Now that you understand the full project lifecycle and how all the pieces fit together, go back and prepare to present your project plan by slide presentation. Portions of the deliverables will be completed by the group; others will be completed by the individuals-see the table following. It must have a consistent look and feel, and there should not be any redundancies, contradictions, or gaps. The document and presentation must flow as if one project manager created all of it.

Create a slide presentation with speaker notes that will provide a comprehensive summary of the project plan (20-30 slides with speaker notes). It will be presented to the project sponsor and other members of senior management and should be organized as follows:

Project Section	Detail	To Be Developed By
Project Plan Overview	Provide an introduction to the project. Develop the project charter and identify the project sponsor and customer. Describe how the project will be measured for success. Describe the components of the project plan, how it will be used throughout the project, and its benefit to the sponsor.	Entire group
Project Scope	Describe the scope of the project-the major deliverables as well as the items that are not part of the scope. Be sure to address the full scope, not just the area addressed in the earlier activity. Describe how scope will be approved and how changes to the scope will be documented, reviewed, and approved.	Individual contribution
Project Leadership and Communications	Identify the sponsor, stakeholders, and key customers involved in the project. Describe any special considerations for staffing the project. Based on the structure of the organization, describe how staffing changes will be identified, escalated, and resolved. Illustrate the communication structure-escalation, reviews, approval, and information. Be sure to address all the audiences, not just the ones identified in the earlier activity.	Individual contribution
Project Schedule	Use a work breakdown structure or similar tool to explain the major activities to be completed as part of the project. Describe the major milestones for the project. For each milestone, identify the associated deliverable, the approximate effort involved in creating the deliverable, and the people involved. For two of the milestones, detail the activities to be completed to achieve the milestone. Be sure to address dependencies, duration, and resource effort. Describe how changes to the schedule will be identified, escalated, and resolved.	Individual contribution
Project Budget	Describe the budgeting process that will be used for the project. Identify the components of the budget, the items that will need to have costs associated with them, and the mechanisms that could be used to estimate the project. Describe how changes to the budget will be identified, escalated, and resolved.	Individual contribution
Project Risks	Describe the possible risk events for the project. Identify the high probability, high-impact risk events. For each of those risk events, identify the possible actions to mitigate the risk. Describe how changes to the risk management plan will be identified, reviewed, and approved.	Individual contribution
Project Metrics	Describe the metrics that will be captured throughout the project for schedule, budget, utilization, and status components. Describe the frequency with which the metrics will be captured and how the resulting analysis will be applied and communicated.	Individual contribution
Potential Barriers to Success	Describe what may adversely affect the project's ability to succeed. Consider the amount of change, attitudes toward project management, cultural differences, different priorities by business unit, etc.	Individual contribution
Actions for Success	What can be done to remove/reduce the barriers identified?	Individual contribution
NOTE: Each student in the small group should select one of the following barrier categories and develop the barriers and actions sections: Logistical barriers Communication and decision-making barriers Scope and complexity barriers Leadership and staffing barriers Priorities and goals barriers Cultural barriers
