Description

Unit 9 Discussion Forum

Discussion Forum (suggested level of effort: 1 hour)

The purpose of a discussion forum is for students to engage one another over topics related to the course material. An initial post by each student "sets the table" for follow-on responses by other students. In a graduate-level academic setting, the initial post is more than describing opinion by the student. Rather, it is opinion supported by published literature or other references (e.g., refereed journals, textbooks, and especially the PMBOK). The response post can be less formal but no less thoughtful in content.


Discussion Topic: Timing Issues related to Resourcing Projects

Initial Post Requirement (20 points): Minimum 300 words.

Review Section 9-3c, CPM 4e. For the Suburban Homes Construction Project or the Casa De Paz Development Project, describe a timing issue that could occur early in a project and a timing issue that could occur at the end of a project. Then, discuss how you would address each of these issues.

Response Post Requirement (10 points): Minimum 150 words. In the response post, you will provide a counter opinion or alternative point of view, not simply a reaffirmation of the initial discussion post. The response post can rely entirely on your experience or it can be a combination of your experience supplemented with information learned from the course reading materials and other references.

Assessment: You will be assessed on 1) content and 2) completeness (e.g., use of in-text citation of references used for summarizing, paraphrasing and quoting and other writing mechanics) and word count.

Resource allocation is vital in managing a project. It involves the planning of all the
resources needed for the completion of the project. Resource allocation aids the project manager
to utilize only the required resources because the costs of running an organization have increased
significantly. The project managers work with limited budgets. Doing resource allocation
effectively results in the completion of half the project because resource allocation is the most
essential and challenging part of the project. Project managers should be careful when allocating
resources to avoid any mistakes. It is important to come up with a list of all the resources needed
for the project and later selecting the vital ones.
Early in the project, the timing issue is bringing individuals on board. Bringing individuals
on board before they are required can be costly but if the project manager takes the chanc...
