There will be employee training and building renovation costs too. Intangible costs: loss of customer goodwill, employee morale, and operational inefficiency. intangible benefits: There might be promotion of organizational learning and understanding, because they were in the project to learn. There might be improved processing efficiency, because they know the procedures more better. 4.ANS: We think it might be a high-risk project since the project size and structure are pretty large, and the user group don't seem very familiar with the development process. Since larger projects and little familiarity cause higher risks, We justify our answer. If we were a part of Jim's team, we might...

SCOPE OF THE PROJECT LACK OF CLARITY Once completed, becomes the basis for future project decisions because it contains the criteria used to determine if the project or phase of the project has been completed successfully. This scope will form the basis for an agreement between the project team, the customer and the project sponsor identifying both the project goals and mayor project deliverables. 2. CHANGING PRGANIZATIONAL PRIOITIES Priorities are very much everything in our economies and organizations creates uncertainty of them. I think one of the most difficult or frustrating experiences a project manager can suffer is managing within this environment while the project is being implemented. This is like a strategically driven scope where the organization may change the project’s goals deliverables, budget or time line. A project that is critical today may not be as important tomorrow and the project manager may be told to put it aside for a while and work on the newer priorities. A change in top management is another factor to be considered. This could result in change in priorities, direction of expansion and other efforts. The project manager has little control over these occurrences. Hopefully, the project has a clear process for managing project changes. There are always ways to reduce the impact of the changes by informing the teams, concentrate on executing the change, revise schedules and budget, revise project plan, and making sure there...
