In addition, Project Life Cycle provides the standard structure that helps the project managers to manage several tasks of a business project……..

Project objectives

This proposed project includes the key objectives which are:

To design and construct the new factory to fit automatic equipment;
To design, develop and install manufacturing automatic equipment such as production line software;
To design Power Saving Product such as control software.

Scope

Delivery of new and completed factories by providing the Power Saving Manufacturing and Automation Equipment should take place within 1^st June 2020. TMC needs to begin the full production on 8^th June 2020. The project must include some weekends where AIF must pay the liquidated damages about £50k for each day. In addition, the cost overrun will be 5% of the original contract value which must be shared by 50:50 bases. Similarly, if they can provide this project under its targeted cost then they will be allowed to retain 5% below the value of the contract and it will be shared by 50:50.

On the other hand, early delivery will attract a bonus of £50k each day without the weekends. However, a standard retention clause is also included in the contract. Moreover, the 10% value of the contract would be collected by TMC for the ten weeks after the module’s delivery and installation. If the operations team of TMC is detected by any type of problems or faults after completing the Automation Equipment in ten weeks, then extra costs charged for repairing the problems that would be deductible from the reserved funds……………..
