Project Management

Please read the following scenario. You will create a WBS (10 marks) and a charter (10 marks) for this project: Susan and Steve have decided to tie the knot, but they don't have much time to plan their wedding. They want the big day to be unforgettable. They want to invite many people and provide a great time. They've always dreamed of a September wedding, but it's already the end of June. When they were choosing the paper for the invitations, the couple realized that they needed help. Susan Steve, we need some help. Steve Don't worry. My friend just completed Principles of Project Management. I will give them a call You Hello Susan and Steve. Steve We want everything to be perfect. Susan There is so much to dol Invitations, food, guests, and music Steve Oh no, we haven't even booked a place! Susan And it has to be done right. We can't print the invitations until we have the menu planned. We can't do the seating arrangements until we have the RSVPs. We aren't sure what kind of band to get for the reception, or should it be a DJ? We're just overwhelmed. Steve My sister said you helped her out a few weeks ago with her laundry room renovation and that you helped Smithers Climate Action group with their composting project for our town. You could help us too, right? Susan But I've always dreamed of a September wedding, and I'm not willing to give that up. I know it's late, but can you help us? You Take it easy, guys. I've got it under control. We've a lot of people and activities we need to consider for our planning. You guys really should have called earlier, but we'll still make this wedding happen on time. . . . Much work must be done before September. Use the tools you have leared in this class to help this event be successful. Susan gives you her planning list as follows: Shop for shoes Finalize the menu Create guest list Print the invitations Have the tailoring and fitting done Choose the bouquet Shop for dress Invitations Find caterer Flowers Cater the wedding Wedding cake Wait for RSVPs Dinner menu Mail the invitations Band/DJ Susan's list should not be considered as comprehensive. You may add to her list as you see necessary. Create a WBS for this project and from the WBS create a project charter with the schedule for all 5 project lifecycle stages (as per PMBOK). This should be done with the start and due date, and the percentage of the project completed. You should also assign the task to the person who is responsible for it. Use Excel spreadsheet
