WOODY 2000 PROJECT (Wideman, M., n.d.)Woody 2000 project analysis is based on the book 'Effective Project Management: Traditional, Agile, Extreme'(Wysocki, 2009). Costs and time for obtaining mandatory inspections and permits used in work are based onresearch of various costs and time required for those services in BC, Canada, mostly for City Pit Meadows(2007) and City Vancouver (2011).DEFINITIONCONDITION OF SATISFACTION (Wysocki, 2009, pp52-56)1. Obtaining required documentation;2. Production capacity area enlarged by the equivalent of 25% of existing production capacity;3. Installation of air conditioning for facility;4. Dust free paint and finishing shop installation;5. Additional compressor capacity installation;6. Installation of semi-automatic woodworking production train;7. Passing trough all mandatory inspections;8. Budget $ 15,000,000.-;9. Project duration 18 monthsPLANCONDUCTING PLANNING SESSION1. Create WBS including Activity List2. Subject matter experts develop further decomposition3. Estimate task duration and resource needs4. Construct project network diagram5. Determine critical path6. Revision and approval of completion date7. Finalization of resource schedule

RISK IDENTIFICATION & MITIGATION

Risksa. Weather conditions – in BC weather, especially depending on where is Someplace may be located,during the winter time may have unpredictable consequences on works execution and, therefore,schedule as well.b. Schedule – schedule is calculated with minimal flexibility. That is the reason to watch execution,delivery and mandatory inspections closely. In order to do that frequent audits should be performedin order to control development of the projected plan and in order to enable continuous analysiswhich may improve execution in the future. Cc. Obtaining mandatory licenses and permits timelyMitigation of the risksa. Weather – considering that most of construction works will be during the period when is abundanceof snow and very cold, we should provide for covers and physical protection of work siteb. Schedule – watching closely execution of the scheduled tasks, in the case that crucial tasks may fallbehind the schedule, we shall use increased workforce round the clock as budget is providingmaneuvering space for it.c. Mandatory licenses and permits – S&P schedule is planned the way that allowing some spare time forobtaining mandatory licenses and permits and secure them as requiredRISK MONITORING AND CONTROLUpon identification, assessment of probability and impact of possible risk is made, risks shall be noted. Risklog will be formed, stating ID number, description, owner, action to be taken and outcome (Wysocki, 2010,pp188-189).CRITICAL PATHThere are few tasks on critical path, Project and Planning, Semi Automated Wood Train softwaredevelopment, Foundation Construction Preparation, Erection of I-beams for construction of extension, Roofand Walls construction and fitting and preparation of Semi-automated Wood Train preparation, which wereallowed for extra time in addition to calculated requirement for execution in amount 10-12%. Most of the taskon the critical path may be also under influence of weather conditions.REVISION AND APPROVAL OF COMPLETION TIMERevision of the current time schedule is not required.FINALIZATION OF RESOURCE SCHEDULESchedule as shown in Gantt chart does not require changes in resource schedule and at this point there is noneed for requesting additional resources.References:Wideman, M.
