Group 2 Project Part 2 (Status Report)

Progress Report

Project Name: Maintenance Hangar Relocation

Project Manager: Anthony Davis

Date: 15 July

Reporting Period: 5 July – 18 July

Work completed this reporting period:

· Developed and published a scope statement

· Developed and published a project charter

· Developed and published a project plan for risks and budget

Work to complete next reporting period:

· Complete and submit updated Project Plan to include risk register (Joy)

· Complete and submit updated Scope Statement (Davis)

· Update and submit Equipment and inventory updates for new space requirements (Ryan)

· Develop and publish a WBS with known tasks and time window (Joseph)

What’s going well and why:

· For the most part participation by 3 of 4 team members has kept deliverables on track

What’s not going well and why:

· No input or communications by one team member has resulted in other members having to complete their tasks at the last minute resulting in less detailed documents.

Suggestions/Issues:

· Continue to assign tasks to Ryan Horner but have a back-up identified in advance to complete the task if he does not complete it on time.

· During week 7 the company president has become concerned about the 10 day time line. Due to the new requirement to not continue current work in the new hangar options will need to be explored and workloads may need to be adjusted. The company president may need to realize that she cant have her cake (a move without interrupting operations) and eat it too (now new work may need to be held off and old work will need to be expedited). One suggestion to rectify this directive is to pretend that the current work will be done on the last day in the old hangar and no new work is scheduled to start until the first day in the new hangar (problem solved in a fictional world with a fictional workload)

Project Changes:

· During week 7 the company president has developed a concern over the interruption of business due to the move. She now requires that all current work be completed in the old hangar and all new work begin in the new hangar. As such a change request has been provided to all team members so that options can be explored to meet the new requirements.

· The risk register has been updated to reflect this change.
