Whistler Ski Resort Project Case Study Given the coming 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and Whistler, BC, Can- ada, and the fact that the number of skiing visitors to Whistler has been increas- ing at an exciting rate, the Whistler Ski Association has been considering con- struction of another Ski lodge and ski complex. The results of an economic fea- sibility study just completed by members of the staff show that a winter resort complex near the base of Whistler Mountain could be a very profitable venture. The area is accessible by car, bus, train, and air. The board of directors has voted to build the ten-million dollar Complex recommended in the study. Unfortunately, due to the short summer season, the complex will have to be built in stages. The first stage (year 1) will contain a day lodge, chair lift, rope tow, generator house After looking into the possible sources of materials, you are confronted with the following time estimates. Materials for the chair lift and rope tow will take 30 days and 12 days, respectively, to arrive once the order is submitted. Lumber for the day lodge, generator hut, and foundations will take 9 days to arrive. The electrical and plumbing materials for the day lodge will take 12 days to arrive. The genera- tor will take 12 days to arrive. Before actual construction can begin on the various facilities, a road to the site must be built, this will take 6 days. As soon as the road is in, clearing can begin concurrently on the sites of the day lodge, generator house, chair lift, and rope tow. It is estimated that the clearing task at each site will take 6 days, 3 days, 36 days, and 6 days, respectively. The clearing of the main ski slopes can begin after the area for the chair lift has been cleared; this will take 84 days. SCREENS 2-3 OF 6 -E + 100% O w P Pax 07 ga 26C Cloudy 09
