Option #1: PROJECT MANAGEMENT SIMULATION 2

Option #1: Project Management Simulation

Scenario D

Introduction

As a Senior Project Manager at Delphi Printers & Peripherals, my role in the project

simulation is to release a new printer that will increase the competitive edge of the company

in the market. The management’s target scope is to have a Multifunction printer that will

allow the company to leapfrog the new product announcement for the competitor, thus

ensuring that Delphi Printers & Peripherals becomes the market leader. The target schedule

for the project is Week 12 while the Target cost is $40,000. Nonetheless, after completing

Scenario D, I met the project Scope goal, scoring 125/125. Further, I scored 294/300 for the

project schedule, thus not fully meeting the goal since the product was completed in week 13

rather than week 12. On the project resources, I scored 163/200 by finishing the project at a

total cost of $51,300, which was above the management’s target. The overall scored was

671/1000 (refer to the Appendix). The purpose of this paper is to describe Scenario D

completed, and document the lessons learned.

Lessons Learned

Encountering problems is not unusual

Problems inevitably come up during any project. There is no project that can be free

from any challenges, ranging from team morale problems, going overbudget, and being

behind the schedule. However, it is important to address the snags when they occur and

ensure that the project objectives are met.
