ABC Company has 50,000 employees at it headquarters. The company wants to increase employee productivity by setting up internal software application training program for it employees. The training program will teach employees how to use Microsoft software programs such us Vista, Word 2007, Excel 2007, PowerPoint 2007, Access 2007 and project 2007. Courses will be offered in the evenings and on Saturdays and will be taught by qualified volunteer employees. Instructors will be paid $40 per hours. In the past, various departments sent employees to courses offered by local vendors during company time. In contrast to local vendors’ programs, this internal training program should save the company money on training as well as make its people more productive. The Human Resource Department will manage the program and any employee can take the course. Employees will receive a certificate and will be put in their personal records. The company has decided to use off the shelf training materials, but is not sure which vendor material to use. The company needs to setup training classrooms, survey employees on what courses they want to take, find qualified volunteer instructors, and start offering the courses. The company wants to offer the first course within six months. One person from human resources is assigned full time to manage this project, and top management has pledge to support the project.


3. PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT.
a. Assume that you have four (4) people from various department available part time to support the full-time Human Resources person, Terry, on the project. Assume that Terry’s hourly rate is $40. Two people form the Information Technology department will each spend up to 25 percent of their time supporting the project. Their hourly rate is $50, one person from marketing department is available 25 percent of the time at $40 per hour, and one person from the Corporate is available 30 percent of the time at $35 per hour. Enter this information about time and hourly wages into the Resource Sheet. Assume that the cost to build the two classrooms will be $100,000, and enter it as a fixed as a fixed cost.
b. Using your best Judgment, assign resources to the task.
c. View the Resource Graph for each person. If anyone over allocated, make adjustments.
d. Print the budge report for the project.

4. PROJECT HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT.
a. Assume that the Marketing person will be available for one week, two months into the project, and for another week, fours months into the project. Make adjustment to accommodate this unavailability, so the schedule does not slip and costs do not change. Document the changes from the original plan and the new plan.
b. Add each resource a 5 percent raise that starts three months into the project. Print a new budget report.
c. Use the Resource Usage view to see each persons work each month. Print a copy.

5. PROJECT COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT.
a. Print a Gant Chart for this project. Use timescale that enables the chart to fit one page. Then copy a picture of the same Gantt chart in PowerPoint and print out the slide.
b. Print a “To-do List” report for each member.
c. Review some of the other reports and print out one that you think would help in managing the project.

Is there a question here??

To answer the question, we will follow the steps provided in the question:

3. PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT:
a. Calculate the total cost of resources:
- Terry, the full-time Human Resources person, will be working for the entire project (6 months) at $40 per hour. Assuming a 40-hour workweek, the cost will be: 40 hours/week * 6 months * $40/hour = $9,600.
- Two people from the Information Technology department will each spend up to 25% of their time. Assuming a 40-hour workweek, their cost will be: 40 hours/week * 6 months * 25% * $50/hour = $6,000 each.
- One person from the Marketing department will be available 25% of the time. Their cost will be: 40 hours/week * 6 months * 25% * $40/hour = $3,000.
- One person from the Corporate department will be available 30% of the time. Their cost will be: 40 hours/week * 6 months * 30% * $35/hour = $3,360.

Therefore, the total cost of resources is: $9,600 + $6,000 + $6,000 + $3,000 + $3,360 = $28,960.

b. Assign resources to tasks based on their availability and expertise. It would be best to consult the project team and create a schedule based on their availability and preferences.

c. View the Resource Graph for each person. If anyone is over-allocated, make adjustments by redistributing their workload or adjusting timelines.

d. Print the budget report for the project, which will include the cost of resources and any other expenses related to the project.

4. PROJECT HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT:
a. Make adjustments to accommodate the Marketing person's unavailability. This may involve redistributing their workload to other team members or adjusting timelines to ensure the project schedule does not slip.

b. Add a 5% raise for each resource that starts three months into the project. Update the hourly rates accordingly and print a new budget report reflecting the updated costs.

c. Use the Resource Usage view to see each person's work each month. This will provide a visual representation of their workload and can be used to monitor resource allocation. Print a copy of the Resource Usage view for reference.

5. PROJECT COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT:
a. Print a Gantt Chart for the project. Adjust the timescale to fit the chart on one page. Include all the project tasks, milestones, and dependencies. Copy a picture of the Gantt Chart into PowerPoint and print out the slide for easy reference and sharing.

b. Print a "To-do List" report for each project team member. This report will list their assigned tasks and deadlines, serving as a reminder of what needs to be done.

c. Review the other available reports, such as the Project Summary report or the Resource Availability report, and select one that you think would be helpful in managing the project. Print out a copy of that report for reference.

Following these steps will help ensure effective cost management, resource utilization, and communication management for the software application training program project.
