Project Management Plan Page 5 of 50

1 DOCUMENT PURPOSE

The Project Management Plan defines the detail of how the project will be managed. It defines the processes

to be applied through planning, monitoring and implementation: i.e., the who, what, where, when and how.

Details of the project, including cost forecasts, schedule, risk management plans etc, should be attached to

this document.

The PMP is used as a management tool for the Project Manager and Project Owner and as a reference for

the project team and project stakeholders. The key audience for this document is the project team, including

the project owner and project manager, as well as the Project Control Group and Divisional Manager.

The Project Management Plan is used, in conjunction with the Business Case and other relevant deliverable

documents, to support the Divisional Manager in making informed decisions for the project.

Figure 1: Project Lifecycle for PM2

This document is the third formal deliverable document for approval in the life of a project, and occurs at the

end of the Initial Design & Planning phase of a project (phase 1).

3.2.8 Scope Verification

The deliverables will be provided to stakeholders (identified in the stakeholder register) at key milestones

(identified in the project schedule) for comment, where it may be cross referenced with the original outcomes

of the project. Sign off of documentation will be required at key milestones by the project owner before

progression to the next phase of the project.

Once a general agreement on the preferred option has been made and the project owner has signed off on

the project outcomes, the project may proceed to E&C for formal signoff by Council.

3.2.9 Scope Change Control

Scope changes or change requests are assessed and approved by the Project Manager. A Change

Request Form must be completed, outlining:

• A written description of the process to change any aspect of the project

• Requirements, and what impact it will have on the project

• Details of the key decision makers that are authorised to make the changes

Prior to any changes occurring, the form must be signed off and supported by the Project Owner. If there are

any significant impacts on budget, time, cost or quality, the project manager must consult with the project

owner prior to approving changes. All changes will be recorded in a Change Request Log/ Register by the

project manager and kept as a supporting document to this plan.

The PCG will be informed of all changes and significant issues arising from changes to the scope of the

project. PCG meetings will continue to be held monthly.

4 COST MANAGEMENT

4.1 GENERAL

This section of the project plan is to guide the development of estimates and budget, while allocating

responsibilities for the activities. The cost management plan sets guidance, procedures and responsibilities

for expenditure, authorisation, cost monitoring, cost performance reporting and change control.

4.2 COST MANAGEMENT PLAN

A clearer indication of project costs can be outlined following proposals to undertake specific pieces of work

by internal and/ or external consultants.

Due to human resource limitations within the STP, the modelling and detailed design phases will be

outsourced to an approved consultant (internal or external from Council) following a detailed proposal from

the applicant. Funding limitations may restrict the scope of the modelling to be undertaken, but are yet to be

identified. Status updates by the consultants will monitor the costs, quality, timeframes and progress of the

works being undertaken and identify any issues arising.

and will assess the long term transport planning needs to achieve a multi-modal transport solution for Oxley

Road while supporting future land use and community outcomes. The outcomes of the study will guide future

development and feed into the Indooroopilly, Sherwood/ Graceville, Oxley/ Darra Neighbourhood Plans and

the updated City Plan.

A clearer indication of project schedule can be outlined following proposals to undertake specific pieces of

work by internal and/ or external consultants.

Due to human resource limitations and a high workload within STP, shifting priorities of work may result in

timeframes being extended and/ or quality of the final product being reduced to meet deadlines.

The project manager will monitor the progress of the study and ensure it meets all deadlines and

requirements. The stakeholder register identifies the involvement, roles and responsibilities of individuals

involved in the project. Status updates along with any changes to the scope will be provided to PCG

members at monthly PCG meetings. The group will cross reference the baseline schedule and project

outcomes against the updated version, ensuring project governance, strategic advice and the delivery of the

project objectives will continue to be met. Any changes to the project should follow the Change Control

process outlined in Section 3.2.9. Prior to the meeting the project manager will be responsible for submitting

the following documentation to each member of the project control group:

• A monthly report including an updated Gantt chart, cash flow and risk status

• The most recent PCG Meeting Minutes

Standing agenda items for the project control group meetings shall include:

• Key Issues;

• Program;

• Budget;

• Key Risks;

• PCG Decisions.

The critical path for the project aligns with the transport modelling for the study. The project manager needs

to manage and control the team assigned to undertake modelling closely to ensure that the modelling phase

of the project follows timeframes. However, due to shifting priorities by the project owner regarding modelling

requirements, it is highly likely that the project timeframes will be extended beyond the control of the project

manager.

A current copy (current as of 20/01/12) of the baseline schedule is attached in Appendix A. The project

schedule summary below identifies key milestones within the project including the forecast and actual

completion dates.

6 PROCUREMENT AND CONTRACT MANAGEMENT

6.1 GENERAL

Procurement and Contract Management includes the processes necessary to purchase or acquire products,

services or deliverables needed from outside the project team. The best value for money will be sought out

during the procurement process. The project procurement requirements table below identifies what work is

required to be procured by STP, and the type of work/ expertise required.

6.2 PROCUREMENT STRATEGY

The procurement strategy aims at ensuring Council obtains the best available delivery mechanism for

achieving the project goals at the best value for money. Contract administration, project management and

administration will be conducted internally within Strategic Transport Planning.

Project Briefs will be developed to outline work required that cannot be undertaken by officers in STP. The

briefs will be developed at the beginning of the phase (see project schedule – Appendix A) requiring

7 RISK MANAGEMENT

7.1 GENERAL

This section of the project management plan identifies, analyses and provides mitigation strategies to

overcome potential risks that may arise as part of or resulting from the project. A Risk Register has been

developed and shall be updated regularly by the project manager as the project progresses. The main

elements of the risk management process are as follows:

• Communicate and consult;

• Identify risks;

• Analyse risks;

• Evaluate risks;

• Treat risks;

• Monitor and review.

The end result of the evaluation process is a prioritised list of risks for treatment and further attention. The

specific profiles and ranges for risk adjustment represent the views of the project manager. The project

manager can determine suitable contingencies on a case by case basis.

South West Corridor Study: Project Management Plan

Project Management Plan Page 22 of 50

8.6 PROJECT ISSUES MANAGEMENT

An issue is defined as a concern if it impedes the progress of the project if it is not resolved. If issues are not

addressed they may become a risk to the project, therefore issues need to be dealt with as quickly and

effectively as possible. Project issues are identified and documented in the Issues Register, and will be

addressed by the project manager, and escalated to the PCG meetings if required. The impact of the issue

on the project will depend on how high it is managed by the project manager. The current open issues for the

South West Corridor are documented in Appendix D.

9 QUALITY MANAGEMENT

9.1 GENERAL

The purpose of quality management in projects is to ensure that the projects outputs are delivered fit-for-

purpose. This is achieved through setting standards for the quality of the project outputs/ inputs through

setting measurable criteria.

9.2 PROJECT QUALITY MANAGEMENT

The methodologies, standards and guidelines for meeting quality requirements of the project are as follows:

• The project must follow PM2 project management methodology

• Austroads Guidelines

• TransLink – Public Transport Infrastructure Manual

• Meeting design standards - UMS 141 & 142

• Streetscape Design Guidelines

• Marketing and Communication Guidelines

The project manager will be responsible for managing and controlling the quality outcomes of the project

throughout the project lifecycle. Additionally, the project manager needs to manage the stakeholders

expectations throughout the project lifecycle through clear and concise communication. Where quality

outcomes are not adhered to, the project manager needs to address the issue with the project owner, and

potentially escalate it with PCG members.

10 RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

10.1 GENERAL

Where resources are not available for key roles within Strategic Transport Planning, the project manager

may use internal providers or external panel contract consultants. These resources shall be procured as

required during the project lifecycle.
