Running head: DISCUSSION ON REQUIREMENTS FOR A PROJECT INVOLVING Discussion on requirements for a project involving a facility move Joseph Goins CPMGT300 June,16,2019 Jeffrey Messinger 1 DISCUSSION ON REQUIREMENTS FOR A PROJECT INVOLVING Discussion on requirements for a project involving a facility move Typically, the requirements for a project can be ascertained from the contract with the client which will describe the scope of work to be performed. The general requirements of the client will usually be found in an addendum to the contract which will generally include things such as training requirements, bonds, worker safety and health plans, fall protection plans, and quality assurance and quality control plans and procedures 2 Azmeer: Identify the stakeholders and how they will benefit from the project. Azmeer: Discuss the resource requirements for the project. Facility move: When it comes to stakeholders that are affected during a facility move due to expansion, there are a lot of things to go over. A stakeholder regarding a certain project is someone who will be affected by someone’s decision of a project. Some benefits for the stakeholders include more space, new environment, expanding team, etc. Stakeholders of this project will definitely benefit from this. When going over resource requirements that are needed for this project, that can include several resources. We would need a facilities team to help with the physical moving part of the project, we would need a team lead to organize the facility move on paper, we would need the stakeholders to keep their personal items organized, and we would need a contractor to help with the physical building and organization of the new facility itself. These resources would need to hold meetings and come up with a business plan before execution that way everything goes well. As you can see, there are a lot of puzzle pieces that go together when creating, planning, and executing a project. To build and manage an effective Team, a leader you should follow 3 steps. The first step is to develop Human Resource Plan. The purpose of human resource planning is to ensure the best fit between team members and projects & avoid the man power shortage or redundancy. The next step is to build the project team. After the leader finishes developing the human resource plan, it’s time to build your project team. And last, a leader needs to plan the skills of the team. In order to accomplish this face, the leader needs to identify the gaps between the team member’s competencies and the project skill demands. The leader then needs to assess and train the members and lastly monitor and evaluate to ensure that the trainings are working. There are 4 items that are important to help build an effective team. The first thing the leader has to do, is share the team’s mission with the other members. Creating a mission statement requires team members to think about, discuss and come to agreement. Second is team responsibility. It is very important in a team environment that team members know what is expected of each of them. Third is team rules. Team rules are guidelines for the ways they will work together. Last, but not least it is motivation. As leaders of a project, it is up to the leader to consistently motivate the team every day. Managing a Team is a very challenging task for leaders. They will deal with different personalities and work styles. The primary goal of a good leader is to get everyone focused, make sure everyone is communicating and keep the project on track. 1 Project Proposal Rhiannon Ramirez CPMGT/300 06/17/2019 Jeffery Messinger 2 Title of Paper Triple click your mouse anywhere in this paragraph to replace this text with your introduction.

Project Overview The mission of the project is to find a facility space that will hold our growing company and its employees. As our company continues to grow our employees are having to share desks or work from home which is interfering with our company culture. With the excess revenue and the money from our current offices expense account with will fund our move to a larger facility. Our company would like to move into our new facility before the end of next year, we know finding the perfect location, and relocating each department will take time. The team in charge of finding our new location is made up for six people. Each person has a different role, whether it is leading the team, finding the right real estate, appropriating funds, coordinating the move, and decorating the new office place. We will measure our teams success if we meet our deadline by completing the move at the end of 2020. Level Two Heading Replace the level two heading with the words for your heading.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Scenario: You are one of three owners of Wild Dog Coffee Company. Your background is primarily in operations. Your business partners’ backgrounds are in marketing and sales. While they are working on the external aspects of the business that will bring customers in, you are focused on making the internal customer-facing processes as efficient as possible. You are preparing an analysis and recommendations that will help manage a core process improvement for the successful opening of a second location.

• Your boss, a director, has tasked you with a process improvement project. She is relying on you to prepare an analysis and recommendations that can be presented to the executive team of the company.

Include the following in your process improvement plan:

• Assess the steps for a selected process.
  • Develop a flowchart showing the process’ steps. You may include as many steps as are relevant for your selected scenario.
  • If using Wild Dog Coffee Company, show the steps for preparing an espresso beverage (for example, latté, cappuccino); there are two steps that must be included: (1) order is submitted and (2) beverage is handed to the customer. Hint: You may want to visit a local coffee shop to observe the beverage preparation process.
• Prepare a procedure documenting the selected process. At a minimum, the procedure must document the following for your selected process:
  • Metrics. Identify at least two metrics that will be useful in determining how well the new process is performing. Be sure to identify the target value of the metric and how you will measure it.
  • For Wild Dog Coffee Company, it could be how well the beverage preparation process is performing. A third metric is already identified for you: order delivery time. (This is the time between when the order is submitted and the time the beverage is handed to the customer.)
  • Procedure. This section describes each step of the process.
  • For Wild Dog Coffee Company, your procedure should be titled, “Espresso Beverage Preparation Process.” Be sure to include order submittal and handing the beverage to the customer as part of the procedure.
  • Purpose (of the procedure). This section describes what the procedure is intended to do.
• Analyze data for process changes for a selected process. Respond to the following questions:
  • Is the process centered? Provide the results of your calculations and the rationale for your decision by thinking about the process capability.
  • Is the process capable at 3-sigma? Provide the results of your calculations and the rationale for your decision by thinking about the process capability index.
  • Is the process in statistical control? Provide the appropriate numbers and the rationale for your decision using a control chart for individuals.
  • For Wild Dog Coffee Company, analyze the Beverage Service Times [XLSX] data. This data is for 50 beverage preparation events and was collected using their order processing system. Each individual order gets a time-stamp when it is placed and again when the beverage is handed to the customer. The senior barista thinks the beverage delivery times should range between 2 and 3 minutes. The known process standard deviation, which has been calculated on an on-going basis, is 0.5903 minutes.
• Analyze the cause and effect of process variances.
  • Brainstorm possible sources of variation to create a cause-and-effect diagram to help analyze potential sources of variation in the espresso beverage preparation process at Wild Dog Coffee Company or for your selected business’ process. Your diagram must include at least four of the “6 Ms” (that is, management, manpower, method, measurement, machine, materials).
• Recommend quality and customer service improvements for a selected process.
  • Detail the results of your analysis for Wild Dog Coffee Company or your selected business’ process to substantiate your recommendations.

Requirements:

• The process improvement plan is to be a minimum of 7 pages, not including the title, reference, and appendix pages.
• Use a process improvement plan template of your choice.

• The process improvement plan is a professional document and should therefore follow the corresponding MBA Academic and Professional Document Guidelines (available in the MBA Program Resources), including single-spaced paragraphs.
• In addition to the title and reference pages, include the following in the appendix:
  • Flowchart.
  • Procedure.
  • Detailed results of order delivery time analysis.
  • Cause-and-effect diagram.
• Use American Society for Quality (ASQ) data analysis tools and 2–3 additional scholarly or academic sources where applicable.
• Use APA formatting for citations and references.

More than half the population of New York City depend on commuter services for transport every day. People going to hospitals, schools, and work use the subway car to travel from their residences to their different destinations in the city and back. The current subway cars have doors between them, which have resulted in wastage of space in the cars, and therefore MTA decided to come up with a plan to fix this problem. The company decided to replace the old subway cars with what they call the “open gangway cars,” which will be having one door in each car for entrance. Between different cars, there will be no doors to increase the space inside and consequently ferry more passengers per trip. Although MTA will use a lot of resources to implement this project, which may demand more money from the public, retaining the current level of services is given the highest priority to ensure that the customer’s responsiveness is not affected. Most of the passengers have set schedules in accordance with the services of MTA and to make this is not affected the company has to set additional resources to look into it. The company is dedicated to integrity and excellence in offering their services. To ensure that these are made possible, MTA has to reinvest its resources continuously (Singh, 2015). The company has to ensure that they have employees who are best suited for the job and keep motivating them to do their best. Employee development, satisfaction, advancement, and success is to be given priority. The fleets and related facilities should be updated and maintained regularly for customer and employees safety. Because of stiff competition from other transport service providers like Uber, MTA has to respond to this by being flexible enough to cater to the new market needs. METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY 3 People want services that are reliable, easy to apply, and flexible to suit their needs. Therefore MTA has to automate their technologies to improve costs effectiveness and efficiency. Old technologies should be eliminated to pave the way for new technology with improved customer access to the company information. The company should align communication and marketing will customers preferences to be customer oriented. Expansion is the way to ensure that customers can access their services efficiently and at any time (Singh, 2015). If these strategic policies are embedded in the “open gangway” project, then it can help improve customer responsiveness in New York City. Market experiment method is to be used in conducting the initial demand forecast for the open gangway cars. Before the implementation of the project, it is advisable to conduct a market analysis to see if the changes will improve the transport services. Prototypes of the open gangway cars should be used to do the market experiment to establish if their intended purpose is yielding any solution. The idea of the open gangway cars is just simple because by sealing the spaces between the cars will lead to an increase in space and allow more movement in the cars. More space means more passengers, and it is speculated that the project will help improve the capacity of passengers with 8 to 10 percent. Due to the few from the customers concerning the ability of the open gangway cars to handle curves is an issue that needs an experiment (Field, 2018). The experiment will provide MTA with views and experiences of customers regarding the open gangway cars, and this can be used to predict the future demand of the cars. Although, the company may think that the open gangway cars will be better than the current ones experiments are needed. Especially pilot runs should be implemented to get the customers experiences with the new cars and the old. The market is based on uncertainty, and doing a market forecast is essential to avoid investing in failure. METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY 4 Flexibility especially regarding time in a critical aspect and for sure if the open gangway cars can save customer’s time, then it can more probably raise demand in the future. A solution to the problem of congestion during the rush hours can help raise demand and thus is an important area to experiment on while forecasting for future demand (Field, 2018). Market experimentation method is the best technique to use in the open gangway project because it will help in drawing a conclusion from various factors that influence it. The technique can focus on extraneous variables that are related to the project. It will enhance confidence while reporting the outcome because manipulation of the interdependence between the dependent and independent variables are well evaluated, and any deviation monitored. The technique is straightforward, efficient, and basic as it can be applied in a variety of disciplines in the project. It is a technique that can also be done over and over, and thus it can be used on the open gangway project severally while improving on areas that need improvement.

Running Head: MTA OPEN GANGWAY CARS Metropolitan Transportation Authority Open Gangway Cars Field Analysis Sandy Camacho MBA 690 Southern New Hampshire 6/9/19 1 MTA OPEN GANGWAY CARS 2 Metropolitan Transportation Authority Open Gangway Cars Field Analysis Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) idea of improving the public transport services strategize on introducing new generation subway cars. New York is a city with a large population, and about 55 percent of the city population choose public transport over private transport because it is cheaper. The cost of living in the city is high, and therefore, it means an opportunity to save a dollar is critical. This means that the project of bringing new generation subway cars will have an impact on a large population living in the city. MTA is aiming at bringing in open subway cars that will, in effect, increase the number of people ferried at a go. One of the factors that lead MTA to come up with this strategy is the congestion of people in cars and at the stations (Fricke & Gualini, 2018). Therefore there is a high demand for the introduction of more spacious vehicles. According to a study done by the University of Michigan, it was proved that most residents of New York do not own a car, and thus, they use public transport. The open subway cars allow freedom of movement and more space because there are few doors on the vehicle. The new generation subway cars also help to unify people because it satisfies the demand of people of all the categories. The project meets the needs of all type of customers. Consumer behavior is a critical factor that is important in marketing such that the service or product provider has to analyze the behavior of the consumer. A customer may demand something and have the will to buy but lack the purchasing power (Fricke & Gualini, 2018). MTA has looked into the purchasing power of the consumers by charging low prices that all people can afford. Therefore the open subway cars bring a lot of beneficial things by saving not only their time but also their finances. MTA OPEN GANGWAY CARS 3 Despite MTA aiming at the implementation of the open subway car project, some obstacles come in their way. According to MTA, One of the threats that the organization suffers from is their weak emphasis on safety of workers and passengers. This can affect the passenger and employee turnover if it if not put into considerations. Necessary measures regarding safety issues should be put in place to curb this obstacle. Another threat that is facing MTA is the appbased transport services that have been introduced by taxi companies such as Uber and Lyft. Most of the public commuter services choose the app-based transport services, which is convenient and at the same time less costly. Riders can take a taxi and share the cost significantly while they reduce the cost. MTA should take this as an opportunity and ensure that the open subway cars are convenient at all-time even during weekends when the demand for transport is at peak. There are a lot of competitors in the MTA industry, and the organization has identified ethics as an opportunity to improve their competitive advantage. The brand of the organization plays a significant role in attracting customers. Therefore to emphasize ethics, the company set up customer service services at all the stations to ensure that customers are served well at all times. Both the obstacles and opportunities play a significant role and have to be considered (SNHU, 2018). MTA being a public corporation it acts on the common good of people, and thus it has a qualified management team suited for the work. The organization’s labor asset is one of the best it has that ensure that the necessary changes in the service are effected. The project was identified by the management, which observed that the passengers were suffering, and something had to be done (Fricke & Gualini, 2018). The staff is competent and qualified and firmly believes that the open subway project will be a success. Availability of resources gathered from the MTA OPEN GANGWAY CARS 4 charges collected from the passengers is an enabling environment that helps MTA to implement the plan. That gives MTA an advantage because no competitor can duplicate their strategy. Added benefits like ports to charge mobile phones and the availability of WI-FI are also enabling factors. There is, however, an inhibiting factor that is keeping the price fixed (Fricke & Gualini, 2018. This is a difficult decision because the cost of the new service is higher than the old one. It is a tough decision but to ensure the costs are catered for without increasing the price MTA have to ferry more people per day, which is made possible by the open gangway cars.
