1. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION AND FEASIBILITY:

Project is a mission, undertaken to create a unique facility, product or service within the

specified scope, quality, time and costs. Project can also be defined as organization and

performance of resources such as men, money, machinery, materials, space and technology into

logical sequence of activities.

Most projects start with a need to have a new facility long before designers start designs and

drawing of the projects and certainly before field construction work can commence. Elements of

this phase include:

A. Conceptual analysis

B. Technical and feasibility studies and

C. Environmental impact reports.

Here, our project is to build a cricket stadium outside a mega city over a piece of land in 16

months.

Hockey is our national game but cricket is more popular. Day by day craze for cricket is soaring

not only in old aged or middle aged people but youngsters and teenagers, boys and girls-

everybody is taking keen interest to watch cricket either to watch on TV screen or at cricket

stadium.

5 Days test cricket is the oldest form of the game. So many people like to watch this sort of game

because it is said that test cricket is real ‘’test’’ for cricketers. Due to its long time (5 days) few

people would like to go to the stadium to enjoy it.

Then came more exciting cricket called ‘’ one dayers’’ or limited overs matches. It became

popular very quickly because of its short time and more excitement and uncertainties till the last

ball of the game.

Some business minded people revolutionized the idea of shorter games viz 20T or 20- 20 over

matches. Its real excitement. In only few over’s batsmen hit lot of runs. Showering fours and

sixes tense the bowlers’ nerves but beat the heart throbs of the cricket lover spectators.

Commercialization of the game is also eye-catching. Now the beauty and glamour is added to the

game. Cheer leaders are the dancers (mostly beautiful girls wearing short clothes) who encourage

batsmen to hit more and more runs or bowlers to take more wickets. Indian Cricket League (ICL)

and Indian Premiere League (IPL) are new tournaments which are becoming more and more

popular.

Meanwhile technology was improving and become part of the game. Before there was only TV

and newspapers, but now we have internet. We have digital cameras with extra zoom, stump

vision cameras, speedometers to check the speed of the ball thrown by the bowlers, digital sound

systems, graphics systems, all the necessary data of the past cricket comes on the screen within a

few seconds. These all aspects strengthen the idea that cricket will live and it is part of our lives.

Stadium is to be built near the megacity. Resources will be available easily. Machinery and

manpower will be available at ease. Infrastructure facilities are there so the roads and

transportation, electricity, water, and materials will be available easily.

Market is highly competitive and we are living in the era of Advertising and marketing. So many

companies would like to sponsor matches. Lot of money can be generated through giving rights

to the television channels for broadcasting of the matches. Not only this, sponsors are ready to

pay money for their logos on the uniform of the cricketers. Money can be generated through the

advertising hoardings on the ground boundary. There is no doubt that commercialization and

glamour will draw more and more cricket spectators to the stadium to watch their favorite

cricketers in action as well as beautiful girls or cheer leaders.

1.1 RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTION:

After going through all these aspects we can conclude that building a cricket stadium outside the

megacity will be beneficial project not to the cricket lovers only but as a profit making business

also.

2. THE PROJECT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS:

From conceptualization to implementation the stages in the development of construction project

(here cricket stadium) fall into broadly consistent patterns but time and degree of emphasis each

project takes on its own a unique character.

An idea of a project passes through six phases before it become a reality:

Conceptualization

Engineering and design

Procurement

Construction

Commissioning

Operation and maintenance

2.1. PROJECT MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION

Generally, project management is distinguished from the general management of

corporations by the mission-oriented nature of a project. A project organization will

generally be terminated when the mission is accomplished. According to the Project

Management Institute, the discipline of project management can be defined as follows:

‘’Project management is the art of directing and coordinating human and material

resources throughout the life of a project by using modern management techniques to

3 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 6: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

achieve predetermined objectives of scope, cost, time, quality and participation

satisfaction’’.

By contrast, the general management of business and industrial corporations assumes a

broader outlook with greater continuity of operations. Nevertheless, there are sufficient

similarities as well as differences between the two so that modern management

techniques developed for general management may be adapted for project management.

The basic ingredients for a project management framework may be represented

schematically in Figure -1. A working knowledge of general management and familiarity

with the special knowledge domain related to the project are indispensable. Supporting

disciplines such as computer science and decision science may also play an important

role. The representation in Figure -1 reflects only the sources from which the project

management framework evolves.

Specifically, project management in construction encompasses a set of objectives which

may be accomplished by implementing a series of operations subject to resource

constraints. There are potential conflicts between the stated objectives with regard to

scope, cost, time and quality, and the constraints imposed on human material and

financial resources. These conflicts should be resolved at the onset of a project by making

the necessary tradeoffs or creating new alternatives. Subsequently, the functions of

project management for construction generally include the following:

1. Specification of project objectives and plans including delineation of scope,

budgeting, scheduling, setting performance requirements, and selecting project

participants.

2. Maximization of efficient resource utilization through procurement of labour,

materials and equipment according to the prescribed schedule and plan.

3. Implementation of various operations through proper coordination and control of

planning, design, estimating, contracting and construction in the entire process.

4. Development of effective communications and mechanisms for resolving conflicts

among the various participants.

The Project Management Institute focuses on nine distinct areas requiring project

manager knowledge and attention:

1. Project integration management to ensure that the various project elements are

effectively coordinated.

2. Project scope management to ensure that all the work required (and only the required

work) is included.

3. Project time management to provide an effective project schedule.

Page 8: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

4. Project cost management to identify needed resources and maintain budget control.

5. Project quality management to ensure functional requirements are met.

6. Project human resource management to development and effectively employ project

personnel.

7. Project communications management to ensure effective internal and external

communications.

8. Project risk management to analyze and mitigate potential risks.

9. Project procurement management to obtain necessary resources from external

sources.

2.2. PROJECT PLANNING AND CONTROL:

Planning is the basic function of the management. Planning is concerned with ‘how and

when’ to achieve the predetermined objectives. Planning sets all other functions of

management viz. organizing, staffing, directing, motivating, coordinating etc.The main

objectives of planning are listed below:

Analysis

Anticipation

Scheduling resources

Co-ordination and control

Production of data

All effectively managed projects involve the preparation of the project plan. This is the

fundamental document that spells out what is to be achieved, how it is to be achieved,

and what resources will be necessary. In Projects and Trends in the 1990s and the 21st

Century, author Jolyon Hallows says, "The basic project document is the project plan.

6 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 9: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

The project lives and breathes and changes as the project progresses or fails." The basic

components of the project, according to Hallows, are laid out in the figure below

Figure 2: Basic Components Of Project

"With the plan as a road map, telling us how to get from one point to another," says

Hallows,” a good project manager recognizes from the outset that a project plan is far

more than an academic exercise or tool for appeasing upper management. It is the

blueprint for the entire scope of the project, a vital document which is referred to

frequently, often update on-the-fly, and something without which the project manager

cannot proceed."

Space for basic toilet and washing facilities is limited in small tunnels.

There is not enough space for toilet and washing facilities on the in the tunnel.

7 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 10: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

A system for cleaning and maintaining the toilets is essential.

Messing facilities, with a supply of cold potable water is also required.

Along with welfare, first aid provisions must be available to match the

requirements of the project.

2.3. CONTROL OF PROGRESS ON SITE:

Without control planning loses much of its value. It must be applied continuously to

update the plans and to enable reconsideration of the workload in the light of what has

already taken place. Control involves comparing the actual achievement with the plans. If

a programme is to be really effective as a control document, it must represent time and

quantity of work carried out.

Progress can be recorded on planning charts that clearly indicate what is happening and

where corrective action needs to be taken.

Weekly and monthly meetings are invaluable in helping to control progress. The action

necessary for correcting underproduction will be considered and the best solution will

then be incorporated into the programme for the next period.

No one shou ld arrive home from work less healthy than when they left home to go to

work.

2.4. PROJECT WORK BREAKDOWN:

Work within each phase to identify the events or tasks, and their associated subtasks.

Define everything that needs to be done; this is called the work breakdown

structure: The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

The WBS has become synonymous with a task list. The simplest form of WBS is

the outline, although it can also appear as a tree diagram or other chart. Sticking

8 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 11: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

with the outline, the WBS lists each task, each associated subtask, milestones, and

deliverables. The WBS can be used to plot assignments and schedules and to

maintain focus on the budget.

2.5. COSTING ACTIVITY:

Cost estimating is one of the most important steps in project management. A cost

estimate establishes the base line of the project cost at different stages of development of

the project. A cost estimate at a given stage of project development represents a

prediction provided by the cost engineer or estimator on the basis of available data.

According to the American Association of Cost Engineers, cost engineering is defined as

that area of engineering practice where engineering judgment and experience are utilized

in the application of scientific principles and techniques to the problem of cost

estimation, cost control and profitability.

The costs of a constructed facility to the owner include both the initial capital cost and the

subsequent operation and maintenance costs. Each of these major cost categories consists

of a number of cost components.

The capital cost for a construction project includes the expenses related to the initial

establishment of the facility:

Land acquisition, including assembly, holding and improvement

Planning and feasibility studies

Architectural and engineering design

Construction, including materials, equipment and labor

Field supervision of construction

Construction financing

Insurance and taxes during construction

Owner's general office overhead

Equipment and furnishings not included in construction

Inspection and testing

The operation and maintenance cost in subsequent years over the project life cycle

includes the following expenses:

Land rent, if applicable

Operating staff

Labor and material for maintenance and repairs

Periodic renovations

Insurance and taxes

Financing costs

3.3. THE CRITICAL PATH METHOD

The most widely used scheduling technique is the critical path method (CPM) for scheduling,

often referred to as critical path scheduling. This method calculates the minimum completion

time for a project along with the possible start and finish times for the project activities. Indeed,

many texts and managers regard critical path scheduling as the only usable and practical

11 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 14: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

scheduling procedure. Computer programs and algorithms for critical path scheduling are widely

available and can efficiently handle projects with thousands of activities.

The critical path itself represents the set or sequence of predecessor/successor activities which

will take the longest time to complete. The duration of the critical path is the sum of the

activities' durations along the path. Thus, the critical path can be defined as the longest possible

path through the "network" of project activities, as described in Chapter 9. The duration of the

critical path represents the minimum time required to complete a project. Any delays along the

critical path would imply that additional time would be required to complete the project.

There may be more than one critical path among all the project activities, so completion of the

entire project could be delayed by delaying activities along any one of the critical paths. For

example, a project consisting of two activities performed in parallel that each requires three days

would have each activity critical for a completion in three days.

Formally, critical path scheduling assumes that a project has been divided into activities of fixed

duration and well defined predecessor relationships. A predecessor relationship implies that one

activity must come before another in the schedule. No resource constraints other than those

implied by precedence relationships are recognized in the simplest form of critical path

scheduling.

To use critical path scheduling in practice, construction planners often represent a resource

constraint by a precedence relation. A constraint is simply a restriction on the options available

to a manager, and a resource constraint is a constraint deriving from the limited availability of

some resource of equipment, material, space or labor. For example, one of two activities

requiring the same piece of equipment might be arbitrarily assumed to precede the other activity.

This artificial precedence constraint insures that the two activities requiring the same resource

12 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 15: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

will not be scheduled at the same time. Also, most critical path scheduling algorithms impose

restrictions on the generality of the activity relationships or network geometries which are used.

In essence, these restrictions imply that the construction plan can be represented by a network

plan in which activities appear as nodes in a network, as in Figure 9-6. Nodes are numbered, and

no two nodes can have the same number or designation. Two nodes are introduced to represent

the start and completion of the project itself.

The actual computer representation of the project schedule generally consists of a list of

activities along with their associated durations, required resources and predecessor activities.

Graphical network representations rather than a list are helpful for visualization of the plan and

to insure that mathematical requirements are met. The actual input of the data to a computer

program may be accomplished by filling in blanks on a screen menu, reading an existing datafile,

or typing data directly to the program with identifiers for the type of information being provided.

With an activity-on-branch network, dummy activities may be introduced for the purposes of

providing unique activity designations and maintaining the correct sequence of activities. A

dummy activity is assumed to have no time duration and can be graphically represented by a

dashed line in a network. Several cases in which dummy activities are useful are illustrated in

Fig. 10-1. In Fig. 10-1(a), the elimination of activity C would mean that both activities B and D

would be identified as being between nodes 1 and 3. However, if a dummy activity X is

introduced, as shown in part (b) of the figure, the unique designations for activity B (node 1 to 2)

and D (node 1 to 3) will be preserved. Furthermore, if the problem in part (a) is changed so that

activity E cannot start until both C and D are completed but that F can start after D alone is

completed, the order in the new sequence can be indicated by the addition of a dummy activity

Y, as shown in part (c). In general, dummy activities may be necessary to meet the requirements

13 | P a g e VEDULA SRIKANT BHARADWAJ/SODE/PDPCM-28-061155752101

Page 16: Ncp 26 Assignment No 5 Construction Project Management for Submission

of specific computer scheduling algorithms, but it is important to limit the number of such

dummy link insertions to the extent possible.
