W5 Assignment: Team Project: PROJECT MANAGEMENT

  • Team Project: Project Management

As a group, design a presentation that you could give to a team of new hires. This presentation should address both parts of the assignment at an undergraduate business student level.  Use visual aids sparingly, but as needed. Add speaker notes to your presentation to help describe any additional content.

  • Part 1: Many students are sometimes confused by the concept of critical path and want to believe that it is the shortest path through a network.
    • How would you explain to this student that this is not true?
    • Give an example of a situation in which project management is needed.
    • Name some commonly used project management software programs.
  • Part 2: It has been suggested that “quality is free.”
    • Explain how improving quality can lead to reduced costs.  Does this suggest that “quality if free?”
    • What roles do operations managers play  in addressing the major aspects of service quality?
    • Use the basics of quality management (Denim, Juran, Crosby, and Ishikawa) to explain why “quality is free”.
