goals are likely to be met.  They are benchmarks in the process of a project that indicate

* Adoption of appropriate methods and mechanics (i.e. strategic road map, target resource split, strategic buckets) for aligning these strategic goals with the project portfolio;

Justify why you chose your milestones. (Hint: use milestones from the scope statement or look for key merge or burst activities.)

The targets for scope, time, and cost are defined in the middle of a project.

The following activity is for the seven month period from January to September 2015. There are some tasks that are identified that overflow from the time as a LEIDOS contractor, which I have identified in italics.

VG is a thirty-one-year-old female who comes in for a routine follow-up. She reports that she has been feeling excessive fatigue over the last month. She also notes that she is having some problems at work, not only because of her fatigue but also because of difficulty concentrating. She also notes that she has gained 10 pounds over the last month, and she is unable to identify the cause of the weight gain. She also notes that her periods are a little heavier and more irregular. She is currently taking daily ferrous sulfate and over-the-counter calcium. According to VG’s medical record, she had a TSH level of 4.2 mIL/L about a year ago. Although, Her previous blood levels were slightly elevated, VG’s previous medical provider did not schedule retesting as, no further follow-up lab was deemed necessary at the time. Repeat blood work today reveals a TSH level of 9.8 mIL/L and a free T4 of 0.72 ng/dL.

* Enter the predecessor(s) for each task in the Predecessors column. If there is no duration or predecessor listed, leave the column blank. Note: If you do not see the Predecessors Column, move the vertical line between the Entry Form and the Gantt Chart to the right to reveal the column. Click on the line and drag to move it. Columns can be expanded or contracted individually to accommodate information the same way column width is adjusted in MS Excel.

Stakeholders will have several goals to fulfill to accomplish this mission. The goals will allow the stakeholders to complete the project on time, within budget, and with few problems, while providing milestones for a successful project. These goals are:

Week 1 DQ 2 Projects and Organizational Structures PROJ 430 Week 1 Project Definition PROJ 430 Week 2 Checkpoint Assignment PROJ 430 Week 2 DQ 1 The Project Kick-Off PROJ 430 Week 2 DQ 2 Project Planning Documents PROJ 430 Week 2 Project Organization, Deliverables, and Milestones PROJ 430

Measurable – All tasks will be listed, allocated and assigned to the most appropriate person within the Quality department. Expected completion dates will be set, weekly progress meeting held to monitor the project and the associated tasks. The goal is to complete all the tasks by the 31 January 2013.

All milestones were met; but there was not a risk management plan established. Recommendations: Plan a procedure of determining how to organize and implement risk management actions during the course of the life cycle a project. This will help avoid any enormous setbacks.

26th July, Week 8: Workshop/Presentation/Meeting to discuss project outcomes and introduce resource at IP team meeting

With total costs reaching over £7 million, the projects are partly funded by the EU’s Merseyside Objective One Programme, and include: land reclamation, managing woodlands, supporting

Achieving project outcomes within agreed time-scales, budget and resources it very important because it will allow the project to be well organised and successful. They are both negative and positive impacts if these project are not achieved within the agreed time-scale, budget and resources.

By the end of January the landscaping site works were finished and the irrigation system was installed. Planting was to be done in three phases i.e. shrubs, bushes and small trees first, the larger trees and finally the lawn. Shrub planting would like approximately 4 days, tress 7 days and the lawn would be laid in three separate operations over 2 days.
