BUSI 680 Case Study: Montview Stadium Assignment Instructions Overview Planning and scheduling are a part of any project manager’s routine. And to do this well, we need to understand how the triple constraint (time, cost, scope) affect our priorities when planning a project’s execution. In the case that follows, you will use your project planning skills (and software) to plan a sport stadium’s construction. You will also use your expert judgment to address the questions that follow, based on your final project schedule. This assignment will introduce you to project management software (or further your knowledge of the software), further develop your planning skills, and allow you to determine next steps for a large-scale project constrained by time and cost. Instructions Read the Updated Case 6.2: Montview Stadium Case document attached to this assignment. Using Microsoft Project, create a task list and Gantt chart that details the project schedule (see the Table 1 provided for task details). Once the chart is created, answer the questions presented in the case document. Considering the information provided, construct a Risk Response Matrix (see text p. 227) that details at least 3 risk events that are likely for this case, your responses to the risks, contingency plans, triggers, and the responsible party for each risk event. Then, in the format described below, submit two documents. · The first document is a paper completed in Microsoft Word that follows current APA format. · The second document is the Microsoft Project file, which is also required. · The paper is to include at least 3 resources (the text and at least 2 peer-reviewed sources) and total of 5–6 pages while including the following: 1.

Page 2 of 2 BUSI 680 Updated Case 6.2: Montview Stadium Case The G&E Company is preparing a bid to build the new 47,000-seat Montview baseball stadium. The construction must start on July 1, 2020, and be completed in time for the start of the 2024 season. A penalty clause of $100,000 per day of delay beyond April 3 is written into the contract. Percival Young, the president of the company, expressed optimism at obtaining the contract and revealed that the company could net as much as $3 million on the project.
