The project management plan is a document that companies project manager will build to help them describe in more detail the planning of all their projects and the company itself. It can be a formal document that is used by managers to manage the project execution. The project management plan documents all the actions that will define, integrate, prepare, and coordinate the planning activities. It also will define how the company projects are executed, controlled, monitored, and closed out. This plan is also used as a communication that will help in ensuring main stakeholders what is going on in the project.
I will be developing a project management plan for the project scenario “Smartphones for upper management”. This scenario states, that the company currently provides their executives with smartphones that have the capably to access the internet. Now they want to offer this to all their employees who have a cell phone and laptops. This new smartphones will be offered to ten senior executives, 100 employees that have cell phones along with laptops, and the 15 employees that will be experiencing training that will need internet access. The company hopes that once it is approved it will save the company money in the long-run. (University of Phoenix Material)
Work Breakdown Structure for the project
The work breakdown structure is breakdown of the hardware, services, and data that is required to help produce the finish product or service. It will show how the work will be performed and will reflect in project costs and data will be reported. (Kerzner, 2013) The purpose of the work breakdown structure for this scenario will provide all the executives with internet access smartphones. The company has decided to expand the program to all their employees that have cell phones or laptops in the hope to save them money.
