The project will consist of the Huntsville plant construction effort, the details of which are in the "project tabs" in the course shell for each week's assignment This course project assignment follows the Huntsville project from a Project Charter (where the effort is initially approved), through the Project Scope Statement (where the scope is elaborated in more detail), through the WBS (where the major tasks and sub-tasks are documented), and finally to a completed project schedule in Microsoft Project, with resources and costs added in. Along the way we also complete a Risk Plan and a Communications Plan for the Huntsville project, and deal with scheduling and resource issues, all normal and customary actives in most project environments.

Please do listen to the Course Project Tour Video (in the Course Home/Course Project tab). It lays out in summary all the deliverables for the Course Project. Since the effort is worth 25% of your grade, you really need to understand what we are asking for and when all the pieces are due! As you complete this course project effort, remember; think of this as a set of business communications as well as a class assignment. In part this...

...Assignment 03 ‐ PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN CHALLENGE The Project Management Plan (PMP) is the project document that clearly defines the project and forms its baseline guidance document for the duration. The PMP is typically the first document to be prepared by the project team once the project has been approved; as such it follows the Project Charter approval. A key to a successful PMP is that the Project Manager must ensure that the stakeholders play key roles in its development. The PMP establishes the overview of many of the key project management plans that will be more fully developed later. By learning how to create an effective Project Management Plan, you will better understand its content and its role when acting as a Project Manager. OBJECTIVES 1. 2. 3. To demonstrate an understanding of how to develop effective Project Management Plan (PMP). Understand the content requirements of a typical Project Management Plan (PMP). Develop a Project Management Plan (PMP). Project "Home Sweet Home" Scenario Now that Mary‐Jo and Bobby Doe are happily married, the newlyweds have decided to build their very own dream house.

...Course Project Introduction | | In this course, you will have one course project and will require two different assignments – Course Project Part I and Course Project Part II. This project will test your knowledge of all of the project management tools and techniques that we'll cover in this course. Before you begin, please review the PM 586 Course Project Tour. [You'll find the link above.] This audio/visual tool will take you on a "tour" of the project and will highlight many of the logistics and "need to know" information to successfully complete the two parts of the project. In addition, this course project does require use of Microsoft Project. If you are not familiar with the software or just need a "refresher," please run through the tutorials above or look at the end of the chapters in the textbook for a mini-lesson of the software. Course Project Description | | Johann Seitz founded the SEITZ Corporation in 1982.

In 1998, Walter and Teri Seitz, Johann’s grandchildren, assumed the day-to-day operation of the business. Teri Seitz was a somewhat unstructured, but diligent, student of the latest business school theory and decided that in order to meet increased competition, especially...

...1. The major difference between review and audit are the following: The review does not contemplate obtaining an understanding of internal control structure. The review does not assess control risk, tests of accounting records and responses to inquiries by obtaining corroborating evidence through inspection, observation or any other audit procedure. It can point out significant matters of the financial statements but does not provide assurance of their accuracy. A review service provides a moderate amount of assurance on the financial statements, and less evidence is necessary to support this level of assurance. Whereas audit provides a high level of assurance. 2. The Limitations of Management assertion of existence: First ZZZ Best auditor George Greenspan performed audit for 12 months ended April 30, 1986. According the case: He confirmed the existence of ZZZ Best major insurance contracts by contacting Tom Padgett. He not only confirmed their existence but also obtained and reviewed copies of all key documents regarding those jobs. However, Greenspan did not inspect any of the insurance restorations. As I understood from the case, If auditor satisfied that these jobs exist by different sources (existence according the paper documents) he is not required to conduct personal on-site inspection. Or if physical observation is not relevant or too costly auditors obtain the next best evidence available. This is the one of limitations of management assertion of existence ...
