Scenario:
Within your new role as an Assistant Engineering Project Manager at Tourat Industries, your engineering-
based project has been approved by your line manager, who can see that you have justified your project
selection and that you have created and submitted a suitably detailed project plan.
This next stage will include the implementation of your project, in which you will be required to achieve the
objectives set out in your earlier project plan, namely, to address and solve the initial problem. Given that
this is a professional engineering project you will need to address and analyse all relevant engineering
activities for your project, and to provide good evidence of the impact such activities might have on health,
safety and the environment. Your project must also show that you have investigated the core theme of
efficiency and that this has been implemented within your project.
In addition to satisfying the above your line manager has requested that you address the following tasks and
produce the key documents as described below:
Tasks:
1. Produce a Report on your project, with a front title sheet and numbered contents page.
For this you will identify the main stages of your project and discuss the outcome of each stage, ana-
lysing the outcome and providing practical conclusions, ensuring that efficiency forms part of your
discussion throughout.
Be sure to include a critical analysis of your project findings using suitable evaluation techniques.
2. Produce a detailed record of your project activities including progress, milestones, delays, project
changes, showing how you have monitored and managed these in relation to your original project
plan. (You may use the logbook template contained in the resources section within Moodle) You may
also explore alternative project monitoring methods that you could employ to help achieve mile-
stones, giving practical and logical reasons for their use.
(Note that your detailed record can added to your main project report, described in 1 above, in an ap-
pendix section).
3. Project Reflection Report.
For this task you will be required to provide a discussion on your own performance and behaviours
that you exercised throughout your project. Your aim will be to take a critical look at the outcomes
from your project and to analyse them and then make recommendations for potential future im-
provements. You should include a specific section here which reflects on the core theme of Efficiency
in relation to your project.
This may also be included in a separate appendix section of your main project report described in 1
above).
4. Produce a separate video presentation.
For this task you will record a video presentation of your project report. This will be produced in a
standard format, designed to present to a group made up of relevant and interested parties and
where you will be clearly visible. This should be supplemented by a separate or combined transcript in
PowerPoint or other means to help others navigate through your presentation content. You may also
include a question-and-answer section Q&A of your own creation as appropriate.
