Determine your best course of action for bringing this project in on schedule and update your project plan to reflect your recommendation.

You have kicked off the District 4 Production Warehouse Move project, your contractors are in place and working on receiving the proper building permits.

You originally were told the permits would only take 2 weeks to obtain but the contractors are telling you it will now take 3 weeks. You need to build the additional week into your schedule for each permit that will be obtained.

In addition, your framing and drywall contractors have just told you they are running late on their other jobs and can only release half their crew for your project. This will double their schedule.

Build the extra time into your schedule by doubling the installation work timelines for both the framing and drywall. Your project plan should also be updated with the new 3-week timeline for obtaining permits. Use the project plan you created for this task.

You are now looking at an extended project delivery date. Your project sponsor was very clear that you must be done in a 4 month timeframe so you will need to look at options for reducing your schedule to fit into the 4 month window.

You have an option of hiring another contractor to help with the framing and drywall work but it will increase your budget by $200,000.

Determine your best course of action for bringing this project in on schedule and update your project plan to reflect your recommendation. Develop a 5-6 slide presentation for senior management outlining your proposed solution. You are seeking approval to proceed with your new plan.

Submit both your updated project plan in PDF format and your PowerPoint presentation.

What is change management?

What is change management? Change management is a collaboration of the process, tools, and techniques it takes to the people side of the change to achieve the required business outcome (Creasey, n.d.). Change management is used to deliver new services and to modify them later and so it provides control over the infrastructure. The key to the change management process within an ERP-centric organization is to stay abreast of the changes that happen in the business environment. The goal is to maximize the value of the IT services provided by the business. The change should occur on all levels of an organization: strategically, tactically, and operationally. Employees that display negative attitudes can make the change management process that much more difficult. According to Krigsman (2011), change management should include the communications and other activities to engage employees. It’s imperative to the success of an ERP. Poor training begets poor systems, increased risk, whereas sufficient training and positive attitudes optimizes the risk for a beneficial result

Define the term dependent variable and identify the dependent variable for this study.

Clearly identifying the independent and dependent variables in a study is a critical aspect of any research project. The dissertation is no different. This assignment will allow you to practice your skills in identifying research variables.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

  • In a study investigating the effects of humor on memory, Schmidt (1994) showed participants a list of sentences, half of which were humorous and half were non-humorous. Schmidt found that participants consistently recalled more of the humorous sentences than the non-humorous sentences, demonstrating that the use of humor increased participants’ recall of sentences.
  • Instructors will be using a grading rubric to grade the assignments. It is recommended that learners review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment in order to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.
  • Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center.
  • This assignment requires that at least two additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each source be included.

Directions:

In as essay of 250-500 words, thoroughly address the following items:

  1. Define the term independent variable and identify the independent variable for this study.
  2. Describe the scale of measurement used for the independent variable.
  3. Define the term dependent variable and identify the dependent variable for this study.
  4. Describe the scale of measurement used for the dependent variable.
  5. Provide an example of a simple study using Schmidt (1994) as a model. State the purpose of the research (Schmidt’s purpose was to examine the effects of humor on memory), the research question (Schmidt’s research question was: What are the effects of humor on memory?), the independent variable, and the dependent variable for your study.
