Carefully read the following.

"The project started in the previous Assessment Task has been running for four weeks, and the web site is progressing.

The status of the project is as follows:

The content has been developed for the web site within the required timeline of 1 month from the implementation of the project plan, and at the specified cost. A public relations consultancy company, PR Pulse wrote the content for the cost specified in the project budget. You have signed off on the content, as it met the brief.

Three quotes have been received from web site developers as follows:

Bestweb Design $3,750, timing indicated as 4 weeks. The examples they gave of web sites that they have developed do not seem to be suitable.

Visualweb $5,000, timing indicated as 8 weeks. The examples they gave of web sites that they have developed seem to be along the lines required.

Web designs Australia $6,000, timing indicated as 12 weeks. The examples they gave of web sites that they have developed seem to be along the lines required.

Timing for the quotes from web site developers are on track.

You have just received an email from the Marketing Manager:

Dear Project Officer

Thanks for sending through the content for the web site written by the consultants, PR Pulse. I have reviewed their web site and services they offer and, given the quality of the work provided, I would like you to prepare one newsletter and at least four blogs to be included as part of the web site launch. I think this would greatly increase the quality and usefulness of our web site. I have spoken to Marlene from PR Pulse who advised that this work would be at a cost of $2,000 which I would hope could be accommodated within the project timeline.

Please fill out a project Change Request Form and send it to the Operations Manager for authorisation. I have already spoken with the Operations Manager and have their verbal approval.

Kind Regards

Marketing Manager"
