New Century Wellness Group
New Century Wellness Group offers a holistic approach to healthcare with an emphasis on preventive medicine as well as traditional medical care. In your role as an IT consultant, you will help New Century develop a new information system.
Background
In the previous chapter, you conducted a preliminary investigation into New Century's request for a business support system and a medical practice support system. In your presentation to the partners, you explained that although they will communicate and share data, the two systems should be treated as separate IT projects. After discussing your recommendations, Dr. Jones and the partners decided to move forward with the business support system project and want you to describe the next steps.
Project Management
To ensure the quality, cost, and timeliness of the new system, you suggested that New Century use a project management approach. Dr. jones agreed, and he wants you develop a brief presentation that will describe project management concepts and benefits. You realize that most of the partners do not have project management experience, and it is important to deliver a clear, informative presentation.
You plan to include an overview of project management, a step-by-step description of project planning, and an explanation of key terms. You also need to describe various types of task pat· terns, and show examples of Gantt and PERT/CPM charts.
Tasks
1. Create a Microsoft Power Point presentation to explain project management concepts and benefits.
2. Create a Microsoft Word handout with a list of all key project management terms, including a definition and an example for each term.
3. In your presentation, provide an example of an imaginary project with at least six tasks. As· sign task durations and dependencies that include all types of task patterns. Create a Gantt chart that displays the project.
4. Use the Task 3 example to create a PERT/CPM chart.
