Task 2 Project Management Plan (20 Marks) Thoroughness and feasibility of project plan including accepted terminology (5-7 pages) Components: • Project management methodology that address the scope of the project, a time-line/process and uncertainties. • A Gantt chart a. The Gantt chart and its illustrations need to explain major milestones and associated workloads leading to their completions. (Individual Projects) b. In addition to the requirements in option a, a WBS explaining the division of labour among group members needs to be provided. (Group Projects) • A communication plan explaining communication channels and activities among involved parties. Written communication features: • Systematic design and rationalisation • Language of practice and theory • Structure and presentation style High Distinction (85-100%) An outstanding report that provides the reader with a comprehensive and insightful understanding of each of the three components. Project process and milestones demonstrate highly complicated logical reasoning and systems thinking. Uncertainties are well considered and dealt with. Forecast of workloads is reasonably precise and achievable. Uncertainties are well considered and mitigations are proposed. Report demonstrate highly professional mastering of project management skills. Language use is practically and theoretically proficient. The report is extremely well presented and organised. Distinction (75-84%) A superior report that provides the reader with a solid understanding of each of the three components. Project process and milestones demonstrate complicated logical reasoning and systems thinking. Forecast of workloads is reasonably precise and achievable. Uncertainties are well considered and mitigations are proposed. Report demonstrate professional mastering of project management skills. Language use is practically and theoretically proficient. The report is well presented and organised. Credit (65-74%) The report provides the reader with a good understanding of each of the three components. Project process and milestones are demonstrated and arranged in a logically sufficient manner that supports feasibility. Forecast of workloads is reasonably precise and achievable. Project planning mitigate certain uncertainties of project implementation. Report demonstrate adequate mastering of project management skills. Language use is largely practical with occasional lapses in theoretical accuracy. The report is mostly well presented and organised with some areas for improvement. Pass (50-64%) The report provides the reader with a brief but satisfactory understanding of each of the three components. The description of project process and major milestones may not reflect sufficient engineering rationality. Forecast of workloads may be lacking or not quite feasible. May not give enough consideration of uncertainties of project implementation. Report demonstrate rudimentary mastering of project management skills. Language use is largely practical with lapses in theoretical accuracy. Writing style in places may lead to vagueness of understanding for the reader. The report is presented and organised with some areas needing improvement. Not yet passed (0-49%) The report has not yet demonstrated the level required for a pass. To receive a pass grade, the report needs to be improved as advised in feedback and resubmitted. Resubmitted work will receive no more than a pass grade (50%). Task 3 Research Proposal (70 Marks) Academic rigour and robustness of the quality and value for the project (50%) Potential for successful implementation (50%) Components: • Synthesis of Task 1, 2 and research methodology • Refined problem definition, methodology, and project management plan • Progress statement about achieved and expected workloads of the project Written communication features: • Critical analysis and synthesis • Appropriate academic language • Well structured (presentation and organisation) and correct referencing High Distinction (85-100%) An outstanding proposal that provides the reader with a comprehensive and insightful understanding of each of the 3 components. The proposal resembles a highly professional project proposal for an engineering R&D or an academic research project. Definition of the engineering problem is focused and clear. Its social/economic/ethical consequences are critically discussed. Up- to-date and appropriate methodology is presented supported by wide range of literature and/or empirical study. Project plan demonstrates highly proficient engineering rationality and systems thinking. Progress statement demonstrates professional project management skills including time management and mitigation of uncertainties and risks. Language use is error free and of a high degree of professional accuracy. The proposal is extremely well presented and organised. Accurately referenced throughout.
