Business Finance Homework Help

Submit the outline of your proposed final project paper.  

Your topic should illustrate a public instance of project

failure (over budget, missed deadlines, failure to deliver as expected) in which the proper application of project management might have prevented the project’s failure. The problem can be from your professional experience or a national or global issue. Use the Internet to research for such a project. Your objective is to present a thorough analysis that demonstrates your understanding of facts relevant to the issue and the project management issues involved. You must arrive at a reasonable conclusion as to the cause of the failure and demonstrate the reasons why project management would have prevented the failure. Note: this paper is in place of a final exam so you must demonstrate in the paper, what you have learned in this course.

You might consider answering all or some of these questions as your structure your paper:

• ?  Why was this project undertaken? Who sponsored and funded it?
• ?  What is the most important information and facts that we need to know in order to decide if there was

faulty project management involved?

• ?  Who are the people or institutions that have a stake in this outcome of this project, and how were theyaffected by the outcome?
• ?  What do you believe the project manager should have done? What was the role of the project sponsorswith the failure? What tenets of project management were not followed?
• ?  What could have been done to avoid this situation? How can it be avoided in the future?
