Ensure that the reader receives sufficient information to understand the various components of your project (i.e. start and finish is not necessarily enough)\nCosts (Budget/Project): Consider the following:\nWhat will your project cost Council (including in-kind investments)?\nWhat are your in-kind costs of staff working on your project? (Determine as best as possible the time spent on a project by your key project team members.)\nAt what stages of the life of your project will your project incur costs?\nWhat are the costs of all phases of your project (e.g. materials, design, planning, construction, consultants, contractors, launches, administration, consultation)\nDoes your project have a payback period to Council? If so, please outline.\n\u000f\n3.2\tProject Budget Breakdown (Example)\n3.3\tCommunication Plan\n[A Communication Spreadsheet may be utilised]\n\u000f\n4.\tCONSULTANCY MANAGEMENT\n\u000f\n5.\tPROJECT RISK MANAGEMENT\nInformed decision-making is critical to the success of any project. Crucial to this success is the identification of risks and how they will be managed.\nThe following risks have been identified prior to the projects start. These risks will be reviewed as the project progresses.\nRisk Log\n6.\tPROJECT ACTIONS  & ACTIVITIES\nTo assist in planning your project a range of tasks, activities and milestones should be outlined that provide an indication of what elements of your project will be delivered at certain times. This can be reflected in an MS Project Gantt Chart. However, you may find that initially an actions table is a useful way of “thinking” out your project tasks and phases.\nAll large projects require a Gantt Chart. However, an actions table may also be completed, particularly in the case where access to MS Project is limited in the short term.\nEnd …","cbCaiku2n7WiZbzH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiku2n7WiZbzH","docx",75528,8,"English","# Project Title and Organisation\n## Project Introduction\n## Project Definition\n# Project Plans\n## Project Overview\n## Project Budget Breakdown\n## Communication Plan\n# Consultancy Management\n# Project Risk Management\n# Project Actions and Activities","[{\"question\":\"What sections are required in the project brief template?\",\"answer\":\"The template includes Project Introduction, Project Definition, Project Plans (overview, budget breakdown, and communication plan), Consultancy Management, Project Risk Management, and Project Actions \\u0026 Activities.\"},{\"question\":\"How should the project timeframe and phases be described?\",\"answer\":\"Outline key dates and phases so the reader can understand the components of the project; starting and finishing dates alone are not sufficient.\"},{\"question\":\"What should be included in the project cost and budget planning?\",\"answer\":\"Include council costs, in-kind staff costs, costs at each project life stage, phase-by-phase costs (materials, design, planning, construction, consultants, contractors, launches, administration, consultation), and whether a payback period exists.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the template recommend managing project risks?\",\"answer\":\"Identify key risks prior to the project start, maintain a risk log, and review risks as the project progresses to support informed decision-making.\"}]","Project Brief Template - Project Plan | DOCX"]
