Executive Summary The report provided below consists of analyzing the four management functions of management within the renovation project at Pravda vodka lounge. The renovation project was originally scheduled to be completed in three months but exceeded that time frame extending the project to be finished in one year. The work was done by various contractors each with a specific role in the undertaking. This provided ability to choose from a wide variety of designs and styles of products as the budget allowed for this. While this was a positive effect of utilizing assorted companies, the adverse effect was the hardship in maintaining consistent communication, organization, and efficiency. Contractors worked at their stations, focusing solely on their task, disregarding any other aspect of the project. Timeliness was not a priority to the contractors as there was a lack of consideration for the daily goals as long as their portion was complete. The delays in shipping of materials made things even harder to co-ordinate. The manager of the project went beyond doing her due diligence and strived with passion to create a flow and balance of the workers, but this came with a great deal of stress initially. She provided the employees with the tools and atmosphere needed to carry out their job. The manager was constantly available on and off work hours to aid in any way needed. The project never went according to schedule as delays in shipments of materials along with poor comprehension skills of the workers made this impossible, but the deduction that alternative managerial strategies were needed to promote efficiency of the employees was realized before it was too late and the project was therefore a success.
