In Part 1 of the assessment, you will use the project WBS and schedule for your chosen
project and create cost estimates for the work packages. Review each work activity and
determine the labor, equipment, fees, or other cost requirements. Labor costs can be a flat
fee or an hourly rate. It is possible to have labor, equipment, fees, or other cost
requirements for each activity or no costs depending on the activity. Use the attached
template to identify costs, then summarize by work package and total for the project.
Part 2:
The project communication plan outlines the who, where, what, when, why, and how of
project communications. Project managers need to manage the information created by the
project and disseminate it to the project's primary stakeholders. Communication is critical to
managing project expectations and the teamwork of the project team. For your chosen
project, create a project communication matrix using the attached template identifying four
information sources (what), stakeholders that need the information (who), when the
information should be communicated (when), the purpose of the communication (why), and
the mode of communication (how).
Assessment 2 Requirements
Hand in the project budget in either MS Project format or using the MS Excel template.
Please hand in the communication matrix as an MS Word document. Both documents
should be submitted in the assessment dropbox.
