The activity will begin from the 1st of April and estimated time from is one week. The Construction Manager is designated to take the muster out responsibility of planning the construction activity and over look all the activities.The following list of activities will be done during the constriction chassis outrage planRoof and ceiling constructionrougeing and carpentryProvide Water, Electrical, Pressure air and gas servicesInstall CabinetsInstall Wall CabinetsPaint CabinetPaint Walls CeilingsHardware structure CablingAs per the project plan, Five Servers will be installed in the server room and the required cabling and racks need to be installed in the switch room.The Hardware engineer along wi th Network Engineer will be planning the activity and the requirements are as followsNo of information Ports 30+ 5No of Voice Ports 30 portsNo of Redundant ports 30portsThe structured cabling activity is planned to start from the 2nd week , 7th of April 2010 and estimated to effected by 10th of April 2010.Network Design ImplementationThe Network design activity starts parallel to the structured cabling activity and the implementation would kick off as soon the server room wiring is complete.The Implementation activity would start from the 3rd week of April 2010 and estimated to complete in 5 days. The Network is designed employ industry standard Star topology. The New floor requires Voice, Data and Video wiring and electronic facilities to support newest form of telecommunications. The Switch room, which houses the Servers, Networking equipments (Switches, Routers, and Firewalls) connects to the each terminal (Desktop) via naiant Cabling. The option for Vertical Cabling can be enabled in afterlife for connecting multiple switch roomsThe list of activities is as followsNetwork designServer Installation and mountingServer application configurationDomain and Active directory setupUser profiles setupAccess privilege creationNetwork Overview Heath Robinson Web Hosting Company http//t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbnANd9GcRBO9d3_iaiMZfK9Tq1JQUgEbrG7Zt5ay336Cm3ZL2ANMIkAREt=1usg=__amDzGGGK51fLYfo3QCeIcL6XCYA=http//t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbnANd9GcRBO9d3_iaiMZfK9Tq1JQUgEbrG7Zt5ay336Cm3ZL2ANMIkAREt=1usg=__amDzGGGK51fLYfo3QCeIcL6XCYA=http//www.sycamorecomputers.com/img/networkdiag.jpgSoftware Design CodingThe software developers will be assigned the task of designing the software customized to the requirement.

One office assistant will purchase hardware needed to the office and other will do paper works.The Project plan Time ManagementProject Futuristic AspectThe success of any project is based on few parameters which portrays the efficiency of the project in terms of the objective achieved and sets bench marks for the future project undertakingThe followings are very important from the project efficiency point of view harvest of enthronizationNet Present ValueBreak Even PointThe calculations of the above are as follows with respect to the projectReturn of Investment (ROI) Net Present ValueReturn of Investment is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investments with respect to a project.To calculate ROI, the benefit (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratioROI = Gain from Investment Cost of Investment__________________________________Cost of InvestmentNet Present Value or NPV is used to decide financial viability of an investment.The difference between the present value of cash in precipitates and the present value of cash outflows. NPV is used in capital budgeting to analyse the profitability of an investment or project. Here the NPV and ROI are calculated. The following tables show you the NPV and ROI value.The Project cost and the profit for next five divisions is as follow.A 30% growth is assumed for our calculationTaking the above The return on investment formulaROI = Gain from Investme nt Cost of Investment__________________________________Cost of InvestmentROI = 10,82,725 554,000-554,000= 1.21Return on investment is a very popular metric because of its versatility and simplicity. That is, if an investment does not have a positive ROI, or if there are other opportunities with a higher ROI, then the investment should be not be undertakenBreak Even Point for the First yearFirst year Sales 1, 75,000First year Cost (Direct + indirect) 50,000Yearly Net Cash Flow Cumulative Net Cash Flow= Yearly Net Cash Flow 1,75,000 50,000= 1,75,000= 0.79 BEP (1 year)Payback Period The cumulative cash flow curves above show roughly the point in time when the cumulative cash flow breaks even, that is, when cumulative incoming returns exactly balance cumulative outflows. This point in time (point on the horizontal axis) is Payback period .The payback period is 1 yearsRISK ASSESSMENTThe Risk assessment and the mitigation measure are very important for smooth completion of the proje ct. The Risk assessment phase is carried out at the initial planning phase of the project .The risk assessment need to be continuously monitored and updated throughout the life of the projectinitial PROJECT RISK ASSESSMENT CONTROL PLANRequirements Control PlanWhen changes are to be made in the requirements after the project plan has been released, the changes shall be brought to the attention of the committee and discussed. Any changes that are to be made will be with the prior approval of the committee and only if feasible and permissible within the constraints of the project mentionedSchedule Control PlanIf the work scheduled gets behind, the stake holder is ready to spend extra time on the project in between and after the schedules and also to make up for the lost time and deliver the final project on time.Budget Control PlanAny changes to the budget need to be updated to the management committeeQuality Control PlanThe Project Manager will be assessing the quality of work for e ach of teh stake holder and will ensure that the required level of quality is achieved in the given time frameCloseout PlanAll the details about the post-mortem debriefings, report on the lessons learnt, project objectives and the milestones achieved would be mentioned as part of the Project documentation at the end of the project. The analysis and the lessons learnt will be used for future project success.
