Issue Management
<The information contained in the Project plan will likely
change as the project progresses. Any changes to the Project
Plan will impact one of three key success factors (scope,
schedule, cost). The decision by which to make modifications
to the Project plan should follow a specific process. That
process is outlined in this section.>

Communication Plan
<List the communication events that will be established for the
project such as status reports, project team status meetings,
attendance at steering committees, and posting information to

6. website for project team member use. Be sure to identify
timing, which means are these daily, weekly, monthly or
quarterly communication events.>

Title: Project Management Plan Proposal Presentation
Description:
identify a realistic opportunity from the workplace that would
require a project. Through completion of the assignment, must
demonstrate their understanding of how to develop a high-level
project plan.
Instructions:
1. Select an organization
The organization is a depot maintenance organization for

7. military aircraft. A squadron provides a complete overhaul of
F15 fighter jets for the stateside bases. which plans the schedule
of the aircraft and create a budget to fit all of the repairs needed
plus any unexpected issues once maintenance starts.
2. Identify a project for the organization that must be
completed. This project will be used for the remaining Team
assignments. Additionally, the plan will serve as an agreement
between the following parties: Project Sponsor, Steering
Committee, Project Manager, Project Team, and other personnel
associated with and/or affected by the project.
The project is to find a way to cut down another 15% of the
time while maintaining the same workload. In just the rewire
portion of the modification the aircraft will have thousands of
hours of work that has to be completed with in roughly 44 days.
This company started out with the rewire modification taking 77
days and over the past few years have cut down days and hours
of processes to get the aircraft to the other part of the full
overhaul faster and back to its home station.
3.Create a 17- to 25-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® with
speaker notes of the project plan proposal for the identified
project using the Project Management Plan Presentation
template provided (ATTACHED). Be sure to provide a
definition of the project, including the project's goals and
objectives.
