create really neat T-shirts for the event. Others wondered where you get the
dye and if it is safe. Another talked about the importance of a website and
creating a digital account for registration. Others began to argue whether the
run should be done on campus or through the streets of their small college
town. One by one students excused themselves due to other commitments.
With only a few members remaining Brandon and Olivia adjourned the
meeting.
While Brandon took a sip of his IPA beer, Sierra pulled a book out of
her knapsack. “Sounds like what you need to do is create what my project
management professor calls a WBS for your project.” She pointed to a page
in her project management textbook showing a diagram of a WBS.
1. Make a list of the major deliverables for the 5k-run color project and use
them to develop a draft of the work breakdown structure for the project
that contains, when appropriate, at least three levels of detail.
2. How would developing a WBS alleviate some of the problems that
occurred during the first meeting and help Brandon organize and plan the
project?
Case 4.2
The Home Improvement Project
Lukas Nelson and his wife, Anne, and their three daughters had been living
in their house for over five years when they decided it was time to make
some modest improvements. One area they both agreed needed an upgrade
was the bathtub. Their current house had one standard shower/bathtub
combination. Lukas was 6 feet four and could barely squeeze into it. In fact,
he had taken only one bath since they moved in. He and Anne both missed
soaking in the older, deep bathtubs they enjoyed when they lived back East.
Fortunately, the previous owners, who had built the house, had plumbed
the corner of a large exercise room in the basement for a hot tub. They
page 132
contacted a trusted remodeling contractor, who assured them it
would be relatively easy to install a new bathtub and it shouldn’t cost more
than $1,500. They decided to go ahead with the project.
First the Nelsons went to the local plumbing retailer to pick out a tub.
They soon realized that for a few hundred dollars more they could buy a big
tub with water jets (a Jacuzzi). With old age on the horizon a Jacuzzi
seemed like a luxury that was worth the extra money.
Originally the plan was to install the tub using the simple plastic frame
the bath came with and install a splash guard around the tub. Once Anne
saw the tub, frame, and splashguard in the room she balked. She did not like
how it looked with the cedar paneling in the exercise room. After
significant debate, Anne won out, and the Nelsons agreed to pay extra to
have a cedar frame built for the tub and use attractive tile instead of the
plastic splashguard. Lukas rationalized that the changes would pay for
themselves when they tried to sell the house.
The next hiccup occurred when it came time to address the flooring
issue. The exercise room was carpeted, which wasn’t ideal when getting out
of a bathtub. The original idea was to install relatively cheap laminated
flooring in the drying and undressing area adjacent to the tub. However, the
Nelsons couldn’t agree on the pattern to use. One of Anne’s friends said it
would be a shame to put such cheap flooring in such a nice room. She felt
they should consider using tile. The contractor agreed and said he knew a
tile installer who needed work and would give them a good deal.
Lukas reluctantly agreed that the laminated options just didn’t fit the
style or quality of the exercise room. Unlike the laminated floor debate,
both Anne and Lukas immediately liked a tile pattern that matched the tile
used around the tub. Anxious not to delay the project, they agreed to pay for
the tile flooring.
Once the tub was installed and the framing was almost completed, Anne
realized that something had to be done about the lighting. One of her
favorite things to do was to read while soaking in the tub. The existing
lights didn’t provide sufficient illumination for doing so. Lukas knew this
was “nonnegotiable” and they hired an electrician to install additional
lighting over the bathtub.
While the lighting was being installed and the tile was being laid,
another issue came up. The original plan was to tile only the exercise room
and use remnant rugs to cover the area away from the tub where the
Nelsons did their exercises. The Nelsons were very happy with how the tile
looked and fit with the overall room. However, it clashed with the
laminated flooring in the adjacent bathroom. Lukas agreed with Anne that it
really made the adjacent bathroom look cheap and ugly. He also felt the
bathroom was so small it wouldn’t cost much more.
After a week the work was completed. Both Lukas and Anne were quite
pleased with how everything turned out. It cost much more than they had
planned, but they planned to live in the house until the girls graduated from
college, so they felt it was a good long-term investment.
Anne had the first turn using the bathtub, followed by their three girls.
Everyone enjoyed the Jacuzzi. It was 10:00 p.m. when Lukas began running
water for his first bath. At first the water was steaming hot, but by the time
he was about to get in, it was lukewarm at best. Lukas groaned, “After
paying all of that money I still can’t enjoy a bath.”
The Nelsons rationed bathing for a couple weeks, until they decided to
find out what, if anything, could be done about the hot water problem. They
asked a reputable heating contractor to assess the situation. The contractor
reported that the hot water tank was insufficient to service a family of five.
page 133
This had not been discovered before because baths were rarely
taken in the past. The contractor said it would cost $2,200 to
replace the existing water heater with a larger one that would meet their
needs. The heating contractor also said if they wanted to do it right they
should replace the existing furnace with a more energy-efficient one. A new
furnace would not only heat the house but also indirectly heat the water
tank. Such a furnace would cost $7,500, but with the improved efficiency
and savings in the gas bill, the furnace would pay for itself in 10 years.
Besides, the Nelsons would likely receive tax credits for the more fuelefficient furnace.
Three weeks later, after the new furnace was installed, Lukas settled
into the new bathtub. He looked around the room at all the changes that had
been made and muttered to himself, “And to think that all I wanted was to
soak in a nice, hot bath.”
1. What factors and forces contributed to scope creep in this case?
2. Is this an example of good or bad scope creep? Explain.
3. How could scope creep have been better managed by the Nelsons?

Rolling Wave Development

Iterations typically last from one to four weeks.

The goal of each iteration is to make tangible
progress such as define a key requirement, solve
a technical problem, or create desired features to
demonstrate to the customer.

At the end of each iteration, progress is reviewed,
adjustments are made, and a different iterative
cycle begins.

Each new iteration subsumes the work of the

1.4 Project Management Today: A Socio-Technical Approach
The Technical Dimension (The “Science”)

Consists of the formal, disciplined, purely logical parts of the process.

Includes planning, scheduling, and controlling projects.
The Sociocultural Dimension (The “Art”)

Involves the contradictory and paradoxical world of implementation.

Centers on creating a temporary social system within a larger organizational
environment that combines the talents of a divergent set of professionals working to
complete the project.

2.1 Why Project Managers Need to Understand Strategy
Two main reasons project managers need to understand their organization’s mission and
strategy:
1.
So they can make appropriate decisions and adjustments.
• How a project manager would respond to a suggestion to modify the design of a product or
to delays may vary depending upon strategic concerns.
2.
So they can be effective project advocates. They have to be able to:



demonstrate to senior management how their project contributes to the firm’s mission in
order to garner their continued support.
explain to stakeholders why certain project objectives and priorities are critical in order to
secure buy-in on contentious trade-off decisions.
explain why the project is important to motivate and empower the project team (Brown,
Hyer and Ettenson, 2013).

2.2 The Strategic Management Process: An Overview
Strategic Management Defined

Is the process of assessing “what we are” and deciding and implementing “what we intend to be
and how we are going to get there.”

Is a continuous, iterative process aimed at developing an integrated and coordinated long-term
plan of action.

Requires strong links among mission, goals, objectives, strategy, and implementation.
Two Major Dimensions of Strategic Management:
1.
Responds to changes in the external environment and allocates the firm’s scare resources to
improve its competitive position.
2.
Internal responses to new action programs aimed at enhancing the competitive position of the
firm.

Four Activities of the Strategic Management Process
The sequence of activities of the strategic management process is:
1.
Review and define the organizational mission

2.
The mission identifies “what we want to become.” Mission statements identify the scope of the organization in terms of its
product and service.
Analyze and formulate strategies

3.
Formulating strategy answers the question of what needs to be done to reach objectives. Strategy formulation includes
determining and evaluating alternatives that support the organization’s objectives and selecting the best alternative.
Set objectives to achieve strategies

4.
Objectives translate the organization strategy into specific, concrete, measureable terms. Objectives answer in detain
where a firm is headed and when it is going to get there.
Implement strategies through projects

Implementation answers the question of how strategies will be realized, given available resources.

2.3 The Need for a Project Priority System
Implementation of projects without a strong priority system linked to strategy create problems.
Problem 1: The Implementation Gap

The implementation gap is the lack of understanding and consensus of organization strategy among top and middle-level
managers.
Problem 2: Organization Politics

Project selection may be based not so much on facts and sound reasoning as on the persuasiveness and power of people
advocating projects.

The term sacred cow is often used to denote a project that a powerful, high-ranking official is advocating.
Problem 3: Resource Conflicts and Multitasking

A multi-project environment creates the problems of project interdependency and the need to share resources. Resource
sharing leads to multitasking—involves starting and stopping work on one task to go and work on another project, then returning
to the work on the original task.

2.5 Phase Gate Model
Phase Gate Model

Is a series of gates that a project must pass through in order to be completed.

Its purpose is to ensure that the organization is investing time and resources on
worthwhile projects that contribute to its mission and strategy.

Each gate is associated with a project phase and represents a decision point.

A gate can lead to three possible outcomes: go (proceed), kill (cancel), or recycle
(revise and resubmit).

Financial Criteria: The Payback Model
The Payback Model

Measures the time the project will take to recover the project investment.

Desires shorter paybacks.

Is the simplest and most widely used model.

Emphasizes cash flows, a key factor in business.
Limitations of the Payback Method

Ignores the time value of money.

Assumes cash inflows for the investment period (and not beyond).

Does not consider profitability.
The Payback formula is

Financial Criteria: Net Present Value (NPV)
Net Present Value (NPV)




Uses management’s minimum desired rate of return )discount rate( to compute the present value of all net cash inflows.
Prefers positive NPV to negative NPV.
Desires higher positive NPVs.
Is more realistic because it considers the time value of money, cash flows, and profitability.
The NPV formula using Microsoft Excel is

= 0 + ෍
=1

(1 + )
where
I0 = Initial investment (since it is an outflow, the number will be negative)
Ft = Net cash inflow for period t
k = Required rate of return

Nonfinancial Criteria
Examples of strategic objectives are:

To capture larger market share.

To make it difficult for competitors to enter the market.

To develop an enabler product, which by its introduction will increase sales in more profitable
products.

To develop core technology that will be used in next-generation products.

To reduce dependency on unreliable suppliers.

To prevent government intervention and regulation.
