4. How do the identities within your team influence and impact your design decisions? How might the identities of the people on your team influence and/or inform how you will design this project? What perspectives or lived experiences might be missing from your team?

5. How do you equitably engage the people you want to reach (The Source)? Who is your Target Source? What's your relationship to them? If any? Who is your Impact Source? What's your relationship to them? If any? What will you gain by working with The Source? What will The Source gain by working with you?

"It's vital to understand the role our cultural and racial biases play in how we interact with others, how we build our teams, who we view as experts, how we create,and for whom. Yes, this is about building an equitable future for all? and it's also about opening up pathways to our own creativity by considering nuances, and working with people who can see what we cannot. Whether you're a solopreneur, a studio artist, a non-profit leader, or a creative technologist, you can use D4D to develop and adopt a diverse, equitable, and inclusive lens to improve the quality of your work and make it culturally adaptable to our world",taken from the creative independent websitehttps://shorturl.at/rRT46

Red Zuma Project The ARC Company specializes in developing and selling a wide range of high-quality scooters. Sales representatives report that there is a growing demand for racing scooters. ARC's president, Robin Lane, is excited about the possibilities and predicts that one day these kinds of razor scooters will be featured in X-Game events. ARC is a small company and uses a strong matrix to optimally utilize limited manpower. The Project Priority Matrix for the Red Zuma Project is: Time Scope Cost Constrain X Enhance X Accept XPart 1 You are a member of a project team assigned to develop the new razor scooter code named "Red Zuma." Table A2.5 contains the information necessary to create a project schedule. For the purpose of this case assume the following: 1. The project begins January 2, 2015. 2. The following holidays are observed: January 1, Martin Luther King Day (third Monday in January), Memorial Day (last Monday in May), July 4th, Labor Day (first Monday in September), Thanksgiving Day (4th Thursday in November), December 25. 3. If a holiday falls on a Saturday, then Friday will be given as an extra day off, and if it falls on a Sunday, then Monday will be given as a day off. If December 25th falls on a Friday then Monday will not be given a day off. 4. The project team works eight-hour days, Monday through Friday. page 645 TABLE A2.5 Red Zuma: Project Schedule Task Name Duration Predecessors 1 1 Red Zuma Project 260 days 2 1.1 Market Analysis 25 days 3 1.2 Product Design 30 days 4 1.3 Manufacturing Study 20 days 2 5 1.4 Product Design Selection 10 days 3, 4 6 1.5 Detailed Marketing Plan 15 days 5 7 1.6 Manufacturing Process 30 days 5 8 1.7 Detailed Product Design 45 days 5 9 1.8 Build Prototypes 25 days 8 10 1.9 Lab Test Prototypes 10 days 9 11 1.10 Field Test Prototypes 15 days 9 12 1.11 Finalized Product Design 20 days 7,10, 11 13 1.12 Final Manufacturing Process 10 days 12 14 1.13 Order Components 7 days 1215 1.14 Order Production Equipment 14 days 13 16 1.15 Install Production Equipment 35 days 14FS+20 days, 15FS+30 days 17 1.16 Celebrate 1 days 6, 16Part 2 The following personnel have been assigned full-time to the Red Zuma project team: 4 marketing specialists 4 design engineers 4 development engineers 4 industrial engineers 4 test riders 2 purchasing agents Use the file from Part 1 and the information contained in Tables A2.6 and A2.7 to assign resources to the project schedule. page 646 TABLE A2.6 Red Zuma Project Resources Number available Marketing specialist $80,000/yr 4 Design engineer $125,000/yr 4 Development engineer $110,000/yr 4 Industrial engineer $100,000/yr Purchasing agent $75,000/yr 2 Test rider $70/hr Note: MS Project considers resources in terms of percentages with one full-time worker being 100%.

Robin Lane, the president, has promised retailers that ARC will begin production in time for the major trade show in Las Vegas on January 22, 2016, which means the project needs to be completed by January 17, 2016. She has authorized working the first available Saturday of each month to help the project get completed sooner. She realizes that this will only reduce the project duration by 12-13 days. After talking to the engineers, everyone agrees that they do not have to wait for the Detailed Product Design to be 100% completed before starting to build the prototype. The consensus is that Building the Prototype can start 30 days after the start of the Detailed Product Design. Likewise the Final Manufacturing Process can start 15 days after the start of Finalized Product Design. Dewey Martin, director of product development, is also willing to add personnel to the project. He is willing to make available at least one more Development, Design, and/or Industrial Engineer to the project as well as Marketing Specialist. Since there is an acute shortage of personnel at ARC he requests that you only use additional manpower that will help meet the deadline. Your objective is to develop a schedule that will satisfy the deadline with minimum additional resource usage.TABLE A2.8 Red Zuma Project Update Phys. % Task Name Act. Start Act. Finish % Comp. Comp.
