Describe a work-related situation you feel could be improved. For example, you want to streamline the process for reimbursing employees, or you want to create a high-tech Web site for your small business but have no experience in programming or graphic creation. Be sure to include the project management process when developing your findings. Once you have determined your project, consider the following:
- Identify the needs of the situation.
- What is the project objective?
- What assumptions, if any, should be made regarding the project to be undertaken?
- Who are the main people or departments that need to be involved in this project?
- What are the risks involved?
- Why would your project be considered a project?
Prepare a short proposal (2-4 pages) for the project, as if you were a consultant bidding on the job. Be sure to incorporate what you learned in the readings.
