As project manager of a project team, your project team has been asked to design and equip
Question:
As project manager of a project team, your project team has been asked to design and equip the fitness center with the appropriate athletic training equipment, technology, and aesthetic appeal that would make it a world-class fitness center. While your team will not be responsible for constructing the 150' x 300' fitness center, you will provide input to the architects as some of your equipment and the reception area will require electricity. Other considerations could include lighting, mirrors, particular flooring, water fountains, etc. Similarly, since Google is a technology company, they want this to be a state-of-the-art facility with digital signage, many televisions, Wi-Fi, music, etc. In addition, they are asking for your team's input on a color scheme and other design cues that will connect with the local community. Your team will also need to specify the exercise equipment to purchase and determine the floor layout of the equipment in the open-concept facility while ensuring that you comply with minimum aisle spacing per OSHA safety standards. Finally, they would like your team to oversee the completed facility's procurement, installation, and final testing. Remember that Google strongly desires to purchase products and services from local companies and encourages project teams to partner with local businesses when possible.
Note that locker rooms will be attached to the fitness center, but another project team is handling that portion of the project. Similarly, your team will not be addressing staffing the fitness center or other operational concerns such as advertising, membership packages, liability insurance, etc.
Your team has met with the project sponsor and key stakeholders at Google to discuss the project's scope further. The goal of this meeting was to ensure that your project team and Google are now in agreement on your areas of responsibility.
The stated requirements above are outlined in the meeting with key stakeholders from Google and the ultimate way to create a communications management plan for the Google Fitness Center project to have an effective meeting. Who creates the status report, and at what frequency? Should there be recurring meetings, and if so, what will the length be?
