Engineering Project Plan

6 weeks · 0 milestones

Produce a complete engineering project plan for a real engineering project (or a documented project scenario), covering scope, schedule, resources, and risk. The plan must include: a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) decomposing the project to at least 3 levels with clearly defined work packages and deliverables, a project schedule (Gantt chart or network diagram) with dependencies, milestones, and the critical path identified, a resource plan identifying the engineering disciplines and key personnel required with an effort estimate per work package, a risk register with at least 8 technical and programme risks — each with probability, impact, risk score, and mitigation action, and a project communication plan identifying stakeholders, information needs, and reporting frequency. Preferred proof: a project plan for a real engineering project. Accessible alternative: ProjectLibre (free, open-source MS Project equivalent) or a structured spreadsheet WBS and Gantt — a project planning tool is required; a prose document describing a plan is not sufficient. Proof artifacts: the WBS and schedule (design artifact) and the risk register with probability and impact analysis (analysis artifact). Verification: an engineering project manager or engineering manager reviews the critical path — 'your critical path runs through this structural analysis activity; what happens to the project completion date if the geotechnical investigation takes 2 weeks longer than planned?' — requiring specific reasoning from your own schedule and dependencies.
