Assessment: Change Management
Part A: Module 1-2 Discussion Forum
Part B: Change Control
Learning Outcomes 1. Draw on tools and techniques of sourcing project data, develop a range of processes and measures to manage scope, change and quality on complex global projects.
Instructions:
For this Assessment refer to the assessment case study found in Key Learning Resources.
There are two parts for this assessment:
1 Discussion Forum (Part A) that prepares students to write a Change Management Plan (Part B).
Each student will construct an initial response in approximately 350 words to the following questions and post on the Module discussion forums. Students will be graded individually on how students demonstrate/share project change management theories and contribute to the general discussion of the topic over weeks 2, 3 & 4 as well as their 250-words written response. The initial and responding posts must be submitted by the end of Module 2 (Total 600 words).
Part A: Module 1-2 Discussion Forums
Managing Project Changes
Why is change management a necessary component of project management? What processes or strategies do you think would work best to analyse changes and perform a change request on theproject in the given/approved case study? Recall any tools or techniques you have used to stay organised and keep professional projects on track. How have these tools and techniques helped you to manage changes? Perhaps you created schedules using software like ProjectLibre or Microsoft Project. Or, potentially, you created a task list using MS Word or an application on your mobile device. Maybe, you used an issue tracking software to monitor progress.
Output:
Part A - Complete your posts by the end of Module 2.
Part B: Change Control
Based upon the given/approved case study, in groups or as an individual, develop a report on change control. In the report:
1. Identify what processes are involved in submitting a request to deal with the changes necessary from your understanding of the case study.
2. Identify and critically analyse changes required and the impacts on scope, time, cost and quality of the project and the techniques used to manage them.
3. Identify and discuss options to satisfy each change request and any risks associated to the options.
4. Complete the change request/control form provided or one that is used from a workplace.
The written part of your change control report should consist of 1000 words/student.
If you work in group, nominate a group leader and this group leader will submit the assessment on behalf of the group.
