PROJ-630 Planning II: Schedule/Budget/ Procurement

This course introduces students to the documentation needed through the planning stages up to and including obtaining sponsor approval to launch the project. The process starts with identifying relationships, dependencies, leads, and lags for activities. To develop the project schedule, students will perform analogous, parametric, and detailed estimating. Students will select the appropriate methodology (Critical Path or Critical Chain Method) and construct the project schedule. Students will perform a make or buy analysis to choose a procurement strategy and develop a procurement solicitation as appropriate. Prior to obtaining sponsor approval, students will develop a project budget and related project accounting documentation. Application and implementation of course theories and concepts in an organizational setting will be addressed through embedded, experiential learning experiences and activities within the course. Prerequisite: PROJ-620
