0.00 Assumption
Global-Alliance Resource Co. Ltd (GARCL) is looking for a way to overcome the oor !uality
of "# suort service found in its Asia $acific regional offices. %uality of "# suort service
remains oor desite the fact that each regional office rovides "# suort service. #he lack of
e&ertise also contributes to this issue. 'oreover( as each regional office rovides similar
suort service( redundancy was found within the Asia $acific Region.
GARCL re!uests for an "# suort system that can rovide first level hardware and software
technical suort service for all its regional offices located in Asia $acific. #his system is named
Asia $acific basic "# )uort Centre )ystem (A$*"#)C). 'alaysia has been selected as the
regional suort centre owing to that it has the largest number of emloyee re!uesting for the "#
suort service. +ther regional offices must connect to the system and obtain "# suort only
from suort centre. *ack u servers will be imlemented to minimi,e service interrution.

1.00 Project Charter
3 : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
$ro-ect Charter is the document that formally authori,es a ro-ect as it indicates the work that has
to be accomlished and also the deliverables that need to be roduced for a articular ro-ect.
*esides( ro-ect charter serves as a bridge between the funder and the ro-ect team as it hels
develo a mutual understanding within an organi,ation which is crucial to ensure the final
deliverables of the ro-ect meet the agreed re!uirement or standard.
1urthermore( a ro-ect charter hels to track down any halt or roblem during the ongoing work
of an organi,ation. 'any ro-ects have succumbed to failure in the ast due to inability to
overcome roblems that occurred during middle of the ro-ect. 'oreover( ro-ect charter hels
to ensure all the arties involved in a ro-ect to be really committed and dedicated in erforming
their resective duties.
*y imlementing ro-ect charter into APBITSC ro-ect( the scoe of the ro-ect can be clearly
identified and secified. "n addition( the imortant milestones( ro-ect statement of work( roduct
scoe descrition and strategic lan of the ro-ect develoment can be generated and analysed
from time to time. 3!ually( the se!uence of work can be acknowledged rior commencement of
the ro-ect develoment as well.
1urther( ro-ect charter enables the structure of the A$*"#)C ro-ect organi,ation to be
roduced and resented for everyone4s notice. A recisely resented organi,ation structure will
clearly define the roles and resonsibilities of each ro-ect team member and avoid ambiguous or
clash of authority. As for the A$*"#)C ro-ect( the organi,ation structure can be referred at the
aendi&.
1.01 Methodology
4 : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
Grounded on the nature and comlicity of the A$*"#)C ro-ect( $'*+5 has been identified as
the most aroriate methodology that can be deloyed by the comany. +ne of the ma-or
advantages of $'*+5 comaring with other methodologies is that $'*+5 concentrates in
detail on nine knowledge areas which are closely related to the ro-ect.
#he $'*+5 covers matters on "ntegration 'anagement( Risk 'anagement( %uality
'anagement( 6uman Resource 'anagement and Communications 'anagement. #hese
elements have huge role to lay in order to comlete the ro-ect successfully. )ince this
methodology covers most of the vital areas( $'*+5 serves as the ideal methodology for this
articular ro-ect.
Aart from that( the fle&ibility and adatability of $'*+5 makes it easy to be deloyed in the
A$*"#)C ro-ect. 7ith the current market is full of cometitors and comarators( a good
business strategy is needed to attract large chunk of the market. 'oreover( the comany should
be able to rovide solutions to rosective clients in a timely manner and with ,ero error.
*esides( by imlementing the $'*+5( the comany must be able to adat to enhancements and
changes which might be considered in future according to client4s demands.
"n addition( the ro-ect management team members would be e&osed and trained sufficiently
with $'*+5 in order to get ade!uate skills to manage the ro-ect and carry out their resective
roles and duties. #he !uick adatability of $'*+5 enables it to be used in diverse oerating
ro-ect environments and this undoubtedly will increase the roductivity and !uality of the
comany. )imilarly( the fle&ibility of the methodology also aves way for the comany to
comlete the ro-ect within the scoe and allocated budget. #his ensures the comany could
withstand any catastrohic scenario in future.
1.02 Project Scope
Project scope Introduction based on APBITSC system
" : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
)coe refers to summari,ation of all the deliverables needed as art of the ro-ect which includes
all the roducts( services and results (5er,ner( 899:).
#he ro-ect titled Asia $acific *asic "# )uort Centre4 (A$*"#)C) )ystem would be
centrali,ed region( which is in 'alaysia. #he established office will be roviding the first level
technical suort for both hardware and software to the rest of the organi,ation offices across
Asia $acific.
The point listed bellow indicates the expectation for the Project scope based on APBITSC
system;
#he system is meant to suort "# infrastructure of all the regional offices is Asia
#o rovide basic (first-level) hardware and software technical suort to the regional offices
#o suort the offices 8;&< with a reliable rimary system and backu suort
"t should be accessible from all the regional offices in Asia with access rivileges to certain
staffs with different e&ertise
Project scope Tools
1or the develoment of A$*"#)C system( the ro-ect manager has to imlement the following
tools so as to achieve the ro-ect goals
;8 $Cs to act as terminal( all of them laced in 'alaysia
= 2atabase and file server laced in )ingaore to act as the backu in case of any
interrutions on the rimary system.
8 web servers laced in 'alaysia to run the central system.
= database server and file server laced in 'alaysia.
1.0 !or" #rea"do$n Structure
' : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
7ork *reakdown )tructure is a tool to hel ro-ector to design a schedule on one ro-ect. #he
ro-ector can know the se!uence of the rocess of a ro-ect clearly from the work breakdown
structure. A good work breakdown structure can saves much time on doing the ro-ect.
According to 3ric >ovinson (89=8)( the 7ork *reakdown )tructure has these advantages
below.
3&ansion
#he work breakdown structure is meant to show every task that the ro-ect includes. "f an
e&ecutive creates the initial work breakdown structure chart( he can fill in the higher levels of the
tree himself and then allow a lower-level manager to add lower-level tasks to the tree later as he
carries out his instructions.
)coe
#he number of levels that the tree includes deends on the scoe of the ro-ect. A large and
costly ro-ect such as develoing a new fighter -et might include =9 levels( while setting u a
business conference at a hotel might only re!uire three.
3stimation
#he work breakdown structure describes tasks( but it doesn?t schedule them. #he tree chart gives
a manager a descrition of each -ob( but the manager has to calculate how long a -ob will take to
erform( deending on his resources.
2ictionary
A work breakdown structure often includes a dictionary. #he dictionary is a searate document
rovided along with the tree chart that includes detailed descritions of items in the tree chart.
*ased on the )cenario( the work breakdown structure can be like this.

$ro-ect Cost 'anagement includes the rocess involved in estimating( budgeting( and controlling
costs so that the ro-ect can be comleted within the aroved budget. #he $ro-ect Cost
'anagement consists of three ma-or rocesses( estimate cost(develo an aro&imation)(
determine budget(establish an authori,ed cost baseline) and control costs(udate and manage
changes to the cost baseline).
(PMBOK, 2008)
"n order to overcome this issue( first a roer and well defined scoe baseline has to be drawn by
the ro-ect team. #he drawn scoe baseline must outline information such as roduct descrition
by each deartment or division (for e&amle the hardware re!uirements in the aendi&)(
software cost analysis( sonsor details (refer ro-ect charter)( assumtions( constraints and key
3 : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
deliverables of the ro-ect. *esides( the work breakdown structure (shown in aendi&) has to be
drawn as well.
#hese two asects are really crucial in order to ensure the ro-ect organi,ation gets a clear view
of the re!uirements and flaws in the current system. Aart from that( it caters the ro-ect team to
easily check if the ro-ect is skidding away from the goal and also rovide better communication
within organi,ation by talking directly to erson in charge by referring to the drawn 7*).
6uman resource lan also must be formed by the comany so that the ro-ect team can calculate
other cost such as ro-ect staffing attribute and staff ersonnel rate. $lus( risk register (covered
under risk management) also should be evaluated so that any negative risk event can be cost
effectively managed by the comany. #his is really vital as the current market condition could
change in future and so by analysing the risk( the comany could be always reared in terms of
cost estimation.

Risk management
Risk management is a central art of any organi,ation4s strategic management. "t is the rocess
whereby organi,ations methodically address the risks attaching to their activities with the goal of
achieving sustained benefit within each activity and across the ortfolio of all activities. #he
focus of good risk management is the identification and treatment of these risks. "ts ob-ective is
to add ma&imum )ustainable value to all the activities of the organi,ation.
Risk management should be a continuous and develoing rocess which runs throughout the
organi,ation4s strategy and the imlementation of that strategy. "t should address methodically
all the risks surrounding the organi,ation4s activities ast( resent and in articular( future.

Project Scope
1rom the ro-ect scoe for the develoment of the APBITSC system( as a grou we managed to
identify what would be ma-or milestones of the ro-ect at hand together with the ro-ect
constrains which basically secify the ro-ect boundaries. #his rovides detailed information of
what does the ro-ect covers in terms of the system functionalities and e&ected ro-ect
deliverables u on its comletion.
1rom 7alter 7awruck said that M)coe management has been neglected because ro-ect
managers tend to regard decisions about the features and comonents of a roduct as NtechnicalN
issues( and hence the e&clusive rovince of secialists ... "t is very roer that they take

for the $ro-ect scoe which are( "t takes recedence over the constraints of deadlines and budgets
#he following are the basic rincile for $ro-ect scoe management.
a) Project scope must be based on requirements
#he ro-ect scoe statement includes deliverables that the ro-ect must roduce to fulfill
re!uirements. 7hile re!uirements are written in business language( ro-ect deliverables are
written in roduct-oriented language. Any change re!uest regarding ro-ect deliverables must be
receded by a change in re!uirements.
Can not include the feature that doesn4t reflect any re!uirement. 'any eole do that -ust
because they want their customers to be hay( or because there is time left until the deadline of
a articular deliverable. #his ractice is referred to as gold lating. #he main reason for not
racticing gold lating is that gold lating can increase your ro-ect risks in the following ways
Additional features may revent the re!uired functions to work roerly.
Dou may have to send time for reworks if these additional features do not work.
41 : P a g e
PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
Additional features that are great in your oinion may not be so for other stakeholders.
b) There must be an integrated control over project scope
#here are mostly always changes to scoe during ro-ect. 6owever( you must have an overall
control over ro-ect scoe. 6ere( by control we do not necessarily mean you must revent
changes. +n the contrary( if changes are needed in order to fulfill current re!uirements that are
more actual than the original re!uirements( those changes must be imlemented. Controlling
ro-ect scoe includes
Fnderstand the root-cause of changes to the ro-ect scoe.
"dentify tendency of changes and the risks associated with them.
$revent unnecessary changes to the ro-ect scoe.
c) Project scope must be regularly verified with project stakeholders
#he roduced deliverables must be verified with stakeholders to ensure that these deliverables do
fulfill re!uirements. Dou can verify scoe at each ro-ect milestone or whenever a key
deliverable is comleted. "t is not necessary to wait until the end of the ro-ect to verify all
deliverables.

Work Breakdown Structure:
" develoed the work breakdown structure (7*))( and this was a big challenge. "t got very
tough( when " got to know that all the activities had to be divided further in to various tasks.
3ven though " had to think in deth of the ro-ect which is time consuming. 1inally( the 7*)
was delivered on time and heled me to know why a 7*) is useful in ro-ect management( how
to roduce it and the most challenging art dividing the whole ro-ect in different tasks.
#he 7ork *reakdown )tructure has these advantages below.
3&ansion
#he work breakdown structure is meant to show every task that the ro-ect includes. "f an
e&ecutive creates the initial work breakdown structure chart( he can fill in the higher levels of the
tree himself and then allow a lower-level manager to add lower-level tasks to the tree later as he
carries out his instructions.
)coe
#he number of levels that the tree includes deends on the scoe of the ro-ect. A large and
costly ro-ect such as develoing a new fighter -et might include =9 levels( while setting u a
business conference at a hotel might only re!uire three.
3stimation
#he work breakdown structure describes tasks( but it doesn?t schedule them. #he tree chart gives
a manager a descrition of each -ob( but the manager has to calculate how long a -ob will take to
erform( deending on his resources.
2ictionary
A work breakdown structure often includes a dictionary. #he dictionary is a searate document
rovided along with the tree chart that includes detailed descritions of items in the tree chart.

PRO1ECT MANAGEMENT (CT050-3-3)
1or this assignment( the work breakdown structure reresented the rocess of how the

Project Charter
$ro-ect Charter is a documentation that shows the comany recogni,es and roves the
ro-ect. "t is vital for any ro-ect to have a rough draft on how the ro-ect is being done( the
rocesses and details of the ro-ect. #herefore( the ro-ect of this assignment has used the $ro-ect
Charter to give notice to the management to acknowledge the lan to solve the roblem.
