Scope Change Management Plan – Implementation Framework

Project Initiation Process

In the year 1960, the water usage in the United Arab Emirates has increased significantly due to growth in population, higher standards of living and expansion in the agricultural and industry areas. [1]

UAE citizens receive their water supply mostly from desalinated seawater. Basically, in the UAE there are two main sources of water, which are desalinated seawater and groundwater. In 2008 the groundwater contributed 71% of the total water demand for all purposes while the desalinated water contribution was around 24%. [2] By the time the reliance on the fresh groundwater resources in the UAE depleted rapidly, hence, the non-conventional water supplies are needed to sustain the economic development in the UAE. The half of annual water production is used for irrigation and the other half is used for the domestic uses. [1]

To supply houses with clean water the water supply network is mandatory, it is a system of engineered hydrologic and hydraulic components. Since the water is transported from Supplier Company to villa via pipeline, it is really important to specify pipe, fittings and accessories specification based on the latest issue of the ISO standards and codes. The material that used for the piping is the ductile iron because of its availability in the warehouse. The are a lot of challenges in this project such as urgent connections were required, main pipeline was not exist, deliver potable water with stable pressure minimum 1.25 bar.

To overcome these challenges, the project management institutes (PMI) standards and practice should be followed which provides a wide range of services to the project management profession (PM) such as setting professional standards, performing research and offering access to a wealth of information and resources. [3] By following the PMI ensure smooth implementation of any as per specification. PMI promotes a drastic career and professional development and offers certification, networking and interest opportunities. PMI standards and methods are flexible and adaptable to any kind of projects.

A continuing sustainable water supply is needed for domestic uses at the customer land. The proposed project water supply capacity is approximately 3408 gal/day. The purpose of the project is to accomplish an implantation of pipeline that supplies water to the villas. To achieve project goal, the following action should be taken:

Identify the local situation
Verify the problems
Setting priorities
Making decisions
Planning a strategies of action programs to solve the problems
Sharing responsibility in project implementation
Evaluating and modifying the project

Project Charter uses as the project initiation is recommended by the PMI’s PMBOK.

”A document issued by the project initiator or sponsor that formally authorizes the existence of a project, and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities.” (PMBOK® Guide, Third Edition) [4]

Anticipated Start Date:	April 24, 2014
Anticipated End Date:	June 26, 2014
Project Manager:	Eng. Fatima Al Hammadi
QA/QC Manager	Eng. Asma Al Mulla
QA/QC Engineer	Eng. Abeer Al Hammadi
Project Scope
Deliver potable water to customer (land) via linking150 mm ductile iron pipe from existing 280mm high-density polyethylene far from the land by around 600 meter, with minimum pressures equal 1.25 bar.
Business Need:
Villas need a water supply about 3408 gal/day. The existence water manifold size is 280 mm with very high pressure and the type of the pipe is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE). However, the distance between the manifold and the first villa is around 10 meter and 20 meter far from second villa. The plan is to use a water manifold size 280mm, which is about 600 meter far from the villa with 150 mm diameter ductile iron pipe.
Project Description:
The work covers the surveying of the site, site preparation, commissioning pipelines and associated fittings, chambers, and accessories, as per company standard specifications, and all incidental work associated with the proposed project, tender B.O.Q and work orders issued by the USER for providing the water connection to the customer, relocation of existing services.
Assumptions:
1. The project can be completed in 3-5months 2. The project cost is estimated around 700,000 AED. 3. The project will solve the unavailability of water pipeline suitable for house connection tapping in the area. 4. The project will deliver potable water with pressure around 1.25 bar.
Constraints:
1. Maximum size of 300 mm diameter is allowed for the house connection 2. Allowable minimum water pressure is 1.25 bar 3. Allowable maximum tensile strength for pipe centrifugally cast 420 MPa 4. Ductile iron material should be used for the piping. 5. Pipe coating shall be completely free from porosity.
Risk:
1. Pipe explosion due to over pressurizing 2. Backflow might occur which is the reversal of normal flow direction where water flows from the intended point of delivery towards the supply. 3. Backflow caused by a lower pressure in the potable supply than at the point of delivery.

The Networking extension Team will use different tools and technique to identify the stakeholder in the project like: brainstorming session, historical data and expert judgment.

The brainstorming session will consist of the project team and project sponsor and it will contain two parts. The first part will focus on internal stakeholders within the company. These stakeholders may include functional managers, operations and finance personnel, and any other of the company employee who will be affected by the Networking extension project. The second part will focus on external stakeholders. These may include suppliers, contractors, partner organizations, or any other individuals who reside outside of the company.

Stakeholder identification

Also we will refer to the historical data for smeller projects to ensure the identification of stakeholder as required to this kind of project, and finally we will take the expert judgment in consideration while brainstorming session.

Once all Networking extension Project stakeholders have been identified, the project manger will classify and analyze each stakeholder regarding to their possible interests they may have in the project and the influence (power) that they have over the project .

The main purpose of this analysis is to plan the best approach for each stakeholder and to determine the appropriate communication plan with him or her.

Networking extension Project stakeholders
Internal Stakeholders	Project team, Project manager, Operation and maintenance Dept., Supply Dept., Customer service Dept., Assets Dept., Project Dept. and HSEQ Dept.
External Stakeholder	Contractor, Owner, External supplier

The chart below will be used to set up stakeholders and their levels of influence (power) and interest.

Key	Internal/ External	Name	Power (1-5)	Interest (1-5)
A	Internal	Project team	2	5
B	Internal	Project manager	5	5
C	Internal	Operation and maintenance Dept.	1	4

Based on the analysis and chart above, for the stakeholders HSEQ Dept. (high power, less interest) project manger should put enough work in with them to keep them satisfied but not so much that they become bored form the messages. Stakeholders Project manager, Assets Dept., project Dept. and the owner (high power, high interest) must be fully engage and make maximum efforts to satisfy them during the project. For the Stakeholders Supply Dept. and Customer service (low power, low interest) the project manger has to monitor them but do not bore them with excessive communication. Finally the Stakeholder Operation and maintenance Dept., Project team, Contractor and External supplier (low power, high interest) must kept adequately informed and talk to them to insure that no major issues or risk are arising.

Project scope management processes include; plan scope management, collect requirements, define scope, creating breakdown structure, verify scope and control scope.

Benefit of project scope management during project planning:

Identifies that a project exists and what it encompasses.
Defines stakeholders, direction, and goals or objectives for project.
Provides forum for early acceptance of project design to eliminate rework or miscommunications.
Roadmap for execution of the project.

Project scope description:

“ The project scopes are to deliver potable water to customer (land) via linking150 mm DI pipe from existing 280mm HDPE far from the land by around 600 meter with minimum pressure equal 1.25 bar. The water pipeline shall do the following function, close the network when it’s required, and maintain the validity of water. “

Requires the project manager and the project team to perform multiple actions to execute the project management plan to accomplish the work defined in the project scope statement. [7]

Project Deliverables:

Water pipelines 150 mm DI with 600-meter length.
Two gate valve one at the beginning of the connection with 280mm HDPE and the other at the end, close to villa.
One Washout chamber in the lowest point of the route.
Fire hydrant after the second gate valve chamber.
Two house connection 1 ½ inch after the second gate valve chamber, directly to each villa in separate.
As-built drawings for the project.

Project Constrains:

Maximum allowable pipe size to connect the house connection pipe to is 300mm.
Minimum water pressure in the house connection pipe is 1.25 bar.
Only Ductile iron pipe must use in the connection because of unavailability of others in the store.
Delivered water should be potable and pass the bacteriological and chemical test.
Network should handle pressure up too 9 bars.

Project Assumptions:

The project can be completed within 3-5 months.
The project will solve the unavailability of water pipeline suitable for house connection tapping in the area.
The existing 280mm HDPE pipe will maybe a huge constrain for the project because the pipe very deep more than three meter.
Project staff resources will be available when and as they are needed.
The project will deliver potable water with pressure around 1.25 bar.

Create Work Breakdown Structure:Project Time Management:

Project time management is one of the most important management that lead to project success and its part of project management that includes the processes required ensuring timely completion of the project. It consists of activity definition, activity estimate duration, sequencing activity and finally develop schedule. Also it’s called project planning or project scheduling. To develop project schedule, first activities will be defined then based on the PERT analysis the activity duration will be estimate, after that the activity will arrange as a sequence based on dependency, finally the schedule will be developed.

Define activities involve identifying and documenting the specific activities that must be performed in order to produce the deliverables and sub deliverables identified in the WBS.

The above-mentioned activities were not in order sequences.

Sequence Activity:

Sequences activities involve identify and document interactivity dependencies, were activity list, scope statement and milestone list used to help in sequence activities. Finish to Start relation were used to sequencing activities.

Estimate Activity Duration:

In estimate activity duration, PERT technique were used, Three point estimate; Optimistic, most likely, pessimistic.

Example of calculate the duration for pipe wrapping using PERT technique:

Develop schedule means determining start and finish dates for the project, to build project schedule we use activities list, activities sequences, activities duration, resources estimation and Microsoft Project.

Project cost management in planning phase focus on plan cost management, cost estimation and cost budgeting.

In developing cost estimation, the cost was dividing into two parts, civil work and construction, erection and commissioning.

Following tables will show the cost estimate of overall civil work and construction work. The price per service is confidential.

Project procurement management contains the following processes planning for procurement, conduct procurement, control procurement and close it.

Procurement includes the processes required to acquire goods and services, to attain project scope, from outside the performing organization. [6]

In this project the procurement plan is different were the materials are exist in the store and you order it from their based on your project scope requirements. The procurement plan is in separate project managed by supply (procurement) department. Only the process is to reserve the required materials prior project start and after the inspection and approval. In this project the plan was to order the material after finish from designed and approved drawing.

During the execution, five different types of materials were not available in store, in this case project manager can purchase mentioned materials from one of approved supplier in vender list. After materials inspection and price comparison, project manager can go for procurements.

Risk Management is the systematic application of management policies, procedures and practices to manage risks identified, to an acceptable level and in a consistent, transparent manner. It is a multifaceted process with many aspects carried out by multi-disciplinary teams. [5]

The main objectives for carrying out a risk assessment are to ensure that human health, the community and the environment are protected, and that the necessary resources are allocated in a prioritized and defensible manner to ensure that any unacceptable risks identified will be reduced to acceptable levels.

Where risk assessment identifies the potential for exposure to exceed the determined permissible or allowable exposure, then risk management is necessary to reduce the potential risk to human health, the environment or environmental values. [5]

General requirements
