Business Case/Project Proposal  \nThis is done at the start of the project to justify doing the work, to answer the question‘why do this project?’The project Sponsor will own and approve this. If you are contributing to this document, here are some suggested key headings (amount of detail depends on size/complexity of project)  \n• Outline description of the project (and how this links with the wider business objectives- ie the background and why the project needs to be done)  \n• What different options have been considered and which one recommended  \n• Business benefits expected of the project. These could include financial or employee benefits, improved efficiency, customer satisfaction etc.  \n• The key products/things to be delivered by the project (and how these will be measured)  \n• Risks to the project-things that might hamper or stop your project  \n• Outline of Scope, timescale and costs  \n• Organisational issues-who will do the work, who is the sponsor/owner  \n• Financial appraisal - investment required, payback, profit/savings projected  \nThis should all be agreed/approved to move onto more detailed planning.  \n2. Project Management Plan  \nThe Project Management Plan is the main document giving the detail of a project and it will be referred to throughout. Some organisations have a similar document named a Project Initiation Document. If you are preparing or contributing-here are areas that should be considered. Amount of detail will depend on the size of the project and on your organisation needs.  \nWHAT  \nObjectives Definition  \nscope (with work breakdown structures etc)  \nProducts and outcomes to be delivered (with acceptance criteria) Project Success Criteria/Key Performance Indicators  \nConstraints and dependencies (what are we constrained by? what’s feeding in)  \nWHY  \nNeed, problem or opportunity Business Case  \nWHEN  \nLifecycle phases Overall time plan  \nKey milestones -may also link to £  \nHOW  \nHow are we going to measure ...  \nQuality Policy and Quality Plan Risk Management Plan  \nH&S Policy, Plan  \nGovernance (link project with wider strategic or company aims)  \nProcurement Plan (following your company procedures)  \nComms Plan and reporting (who, when how often, about what and what do you want people to do with the information)  \nHow project will be handed over and integrated into business as usual Levels of monitoring and control  \nBudget  \nCost Management  \nWHERE  \nGeographical Location  \nWHO  \nProject Roles and Responsibilities  \nResponsibility Matrix and Organisational Breakdown Structure Stakeholder Lists  \n3. Planning and Scheduling-Critical Path  \nWhere work is well defined, you can analyse by-  \n1. creating a logical model of how the work will be performed;  \n2. estimating how long each activity might take;  \n3. calculating timings for the activities when joined together;  \n4. presenting the results.  \nYou will need to consider things such as the efficiency of resources, and physical constraints (eg restricted working if several tasks taking place in one area) .  \nThe simplest form of calculation is critical path analysis. This calculates earliest and latest dates for the performance of each activity and therefore the overall duration of the project. It then calculates the amount that individual activities can be delayed without  \naffecting the project finish. This is known as float time. The longest path (or paths) through the network is called the critical path and is made up of activities with t","cbCaishkl9RazVVB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaishkl9RazVVB","pdf",815389,13,"English","# Business Case/Project Proposal\n# Project Management Plan\n# Planning and Scheduling - Critical Path\n## A note on using Gantt Charts to plan\n# Delegating Tasks - Responsibility Matrix\n## RACI matrix","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Business Case/Project Proposal in a project?\",\"answer\":\"It is completed at the start to justify why the work should be done, answering “why do this project?”.
