Signboard Installation At CQU Campus For Regional Language Promotion

Work Package Description

The project of “Signboard Installation at CQU campus for Regional Language Promotion” would tend to form the effective and smart deployment of the signboards at the campus of CQU University for promoting the regional languages of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island. The development of the signboard is deployed for forming the analysis of the effective processes. The work breakdown structure for the project has five major subprojects namely Project Initialization, Designing of signboards, Signboards are printed, Old Signboards are removed, New Signage is implemented, and Project Closure. The subprojects of the project would be implied for improving and promotion of the effective implementation process. The explanation of the work packages is give below,

Project Initialization: The project initialization would include the activities of development of initial documents and holding the initial meetings. This is the 1^st work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

Designing of signboards: The signboard design is deployed with including the activities of change evaluation and identification of the changes required. This is the 1^st work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

Signboards are printed: The printing of signboards are done in the project by performing the theme selection of the signboards and information collection about the vendor. This is the 2^nd work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

Old Signboards are removed: The removal of the old signboards is required in the project and it would involve the accumulation of the old signboards from the CQU University Campus and marking them as collected. This is the 3^rd work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

New Signage is implemented: The new signage is formed for implementing the advanced methodology of selecting appropriate location for new signage boards and installing them at the location. This is the 4^th work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

Project Closure: The project closure consists of the methods of the implementation of the project closure operations such as evaluation of the checklist of the project and final documentation process. This is the last work package for the project of CQU signage boards.

The project is developed by the help of the project management concepts and processes including the Ms-Project Software. The management of the operations would tend to implement the effective processing of the project. The development of the project operations had been based by following the Waterfall approach. The activities of the project include developing initial documents for project, initiation meeting is held, evaluating the changes, identification of the changes required, selection of signboard theme, collecting information about the vendor, old signboards are accumulated, old signboards are marked as collected, selection of locations for new signboards, new signage are fixed in the locations, project closure checklist is evaluated, and final documentation of the project.

The project communication had been formed by following the principles of communication management techniques. The communication management plan was developed for implying the effective communication within the organization. The communication would be implied for forming the effective communication within the operations of the project. The communication plan for the project of “Signboard Installation at CQU campus for Regional Language Promotion” is,
