Note: I have attached section 1 that is already completed, also attached the Simulation Analysis results that can be used in section 2. I attached the case study for Section 3 and also attached the outline for the paper.
Section 1: Principle Components Discussion (Completed)
Describe the project management standards and processes based on the Project Management Institute’s A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge® (PMBOK® Guide) (6th ed.). This section should be approximately 5- to 6-pages and include a brief, yet, substantive synopsis for each of the following items:
- Project, Program, and Portfolio Management distinction
- Project Selection
- Project Charter
- Project Charter Template: Additionally, develop a basic, 1- to 3-page Project Charter template based on the PMBOK® Guide (6th ed.) that could be used for small-to-medium projects in a global organization. Include your Project Charter template as an appendix in your essay paper.
- Project Organization
- Project Planning
- Project Scheduling
- Project Estimating
- Monitoring and Control
- Project Closure
- Communication Management
- Risk Management
- Role of Information Technology.
The requirements for this section of the Portfolio Project are common for both Option 1 and Option 2.
Section 2: Simulation Analysis
Summarize your performance in the project management simulation completed in Module 6(Attached) Product #: 4700-HTM-ENG). This section should be approximately 2- to 3-pages and must include:
- Identification of three project management standards or practices applied during the simulation and their effect on your simulation outcomes.
- Delineation of three lessons learned from the project management simulation that can be applied to future management of projects.
- Recommendation for improving your simulation outcomes.
The subject content for Section 2 varies based on the Portfolio Project option selected:
- For Option 1, the project management simulation requires an analysis of your performance of the Simulation Scenario A.
Section 3: Case Study Analysis
Review and assess one of the two global project management case studies designated; then develop a 4- to 6-page recommendation for achieving the objectives set forth. As part of your recommendation, develop a high-level project management plan comprised of a statement of:
- work (SOW)
- a work breakdown structure (WBS)
- a project schedule or Gantt
- a communications plan
- a risk management plan
- a stakeholder management plan
- and other relevant project management plan details.
Additionally, based on project team performance and leadership traits exhibited in the designated case study, identify the primary attributes needed to be a successful leader in this scenario.
The case study for Section 3 varies depending on the Portfolio Project option selected:
- For Option 1, use the Honicker Corporation case study (Kerzner, 2017, pp. 753-755).
