Part B - You will use the given case study to complete this part individually or in a group of 2-3 students. You will begin developing the cost management planning components of your Cost Management Plan in Module 4. For this plan, you are responsible for developing the project cost estimate and a project budget baseline. In addition to your cost estimates and budget, include a 750 words to describe the processes, and tools and techniques you are using in your cost management plan, as well as justification of your budgetary plan. You can use the templates found in this module’s Learning Resources or a format of your own. In Module 5, you will develop the quality management planning components of your Quality Management Plan. Refer to the learning resources and the template provided for guidance. The written portion of your quality management plan should consist of 750 words.
PROJ6002- -Trimester 2 2020 1 Vehicle Maintenance Facility Case Study Vehicle Maintenance Facility project is a hypothetical corporate vehicle maintenance facility, and is designed to contain features that are typical in small‐scale commercial buildings. The contract itself is assumed to be a fixed‐price, fixed‐scope arrangement between an owner and a general contractor. All code and zoning approvals have been obtained, and construction can begin immediately upon receipt of the notice to proceed. The site is located on a city street in an industrial park. The existing slope of the site is minimal, and bringing the site to finish grade does not require large amounts of excavation. The site plan contains a large parking lot to allow for vehicle parking and movement during servicing. The paving is asphalt over graded aggregate base with concrete curb and gutter, and runoff is handled by catch basins and 18‐inch corrugated metal pipe storm drains. The building itself contains two main areas, which are a high bay space for actual vehicle servicing, and an attached office and training area. The structure of both spaces consists of CMU walls with steel joist roof structures, with concrete floors. The vehicle servicing area is designed for handling pickup trucks and light vans. It has four service bays with roll‐up doors at both ends, and a service pit under two of the bays which allows easier access to the underside of vehicles. Also, the servicing area contains vehicle lifts, oil and lube, coolant and air conditioning service equipment, as well electrical and pneumatic power outlets. Heating of this space is done with suspended gas‐fired heating units. Compressed air is provided by an air compressor located in an adjacent room. The office and training area is finished space, with steel studs and gypsum wall partitions, suspended ceilings, and varied floor finishes. In addition to finished office and classroom space, this area contains restrooms, a locker room, and an employee break room. All doors are hollow metal with standard commercial hardware, with the exception of the front entrance, which is commercial storefront. The heating and cooling of the office areas is done using two systems, each consisting of exterior condenser unit, plus air handling units in a dedicated room, and ductwork mounted above the suspended ceiling. In addition to standard power and lighting, the building has modern voice and data systems, as well as a wired fire alarm system.
