Time Management, Managing
Project
Cost and Project Risk course topics. The report should emphasise how you are
managing this as a project.
This
assignment is intended to be the application of theory and not the reproduction
of theory – hence, I will be on a
lookout for
evidence showing attempts to apply theory to a real project example, within the
report.

length: 3,000 words. Additional marks will be awarded for comprehensive plans
and use of appropriate
proper
management software/diagrams to articulate your points well and present the
project plan professionally.
The report
should be clear and concise.
As part of
the assessment, the translation of knowledge and understanding into skills in
managing the key project
elements of
scope, time, cost, quality, risk, procurement, human resources and
communications, and the integration
of these,
will be considered.
