PROJECT OUTLINE GROUP C

Part A

Project Scope Description:

       As a team, we have been assigned to create a compensation plan for a startup boutique hotel chain preparing to launch in five locations across the country in Manhattan, Chicago, Miami, Houston, and Los Angeles. The task force will research the following 5 employee positions for each city and complete requirements for the tasks assigned for each position as follows:

Team Member	Assigned Position/Section	Date to be completed by
Team member 1	Project Scope & General Manager	Leave Blank
Team Member 2	HR Manager & Resturant Manager	Leave Blank
Team Member 3	Operational Manager & Conclusion	Leave Blank
Team member 4	Head of Housekeeping	Leave Blank

Each member of the group is to research their employee’s job description to include:

1. Job duties and responsibilities, how they complete it, how many hours a week they work, etc.

2. The team will research compensation that is higher than average and in the top 25%. Research the cost of living in each area for your employee. Tools that we will be using as a team are focusing on compensation surveys under the BLS and utilizing the mean equation. When researching the BLS, utilize and gather average wage per industry/title as well as compensation benefits.

3. Implement an incentive (bonus) plan that benefits the individual and hotel staff.
