PROJECT MANAGEMENT AT MM

Case Study Analysis Report: Project Management at MM

Introduction

Werner McCann, the top project manager at MM

, is faced with the challenge of saving the

Green Project before it is declared a failure. Three months to the project’s deadline, McCann is

overwhelmed with information that reveals why the project is about to fail if nothing is done to

rescue the project. The project is faced with several risks of varying degrees most of which could

be foreseen and prevented. From the financial risks, to the technological risks to the management

risks that are threatening the project, it is irrefutable that McCann is faced with a variety of risks

that require different solutions if he and his team are to save the project and deliver the value they

promised to deliver the company at the onset of the project.

As stated in the case, to save the project, McCann needs both time, extra finances and an

effective team to achieve the desired goals and prevent the manifestation of future risks. However,

to identify what must be done, McCann must first identify all the current risks and categorize them

before identifying the optimal solution to each risk. Understanding the nature of each risk and the

level of threat the each risk poses is important in informing the project management team on what

risks must be prioritized in the risk management plans that will be created. After, McCann must

then identify the success facilitators so as to reinforce the efforts of those success factors. McCann

must then list all the barriers to success that his project is experiencing before further identifying

how to manage and eliminate the barriers (Smith and McKeen, 2009).

Once the barriers are identified, McCann can make informed decisions on how to best approach

the elimination of each barrier. Lastly, McCann should then create an informed and accurate plan
