INTRODUCTION
Detailed project report is a project implementation guide for the project team. Many official
bodies gave different definitions. According to Project Management Body of Knowledge, “A
formal, approved document used to guide both project execution and project control. The
primary uses of the project plan are to document planning assumptions and decisions,
facilitate communication among stakeholders, and document approved scope, cost, and
schedule baselines. A project plan may be summarized or detailed.”
The need of the exercise is to know the feasibility of the project, the maximum profit and the
minimum loss and to optimally utilize the money and specified time for project’s completion.
To carry out the cost estimation of the project with reference to subsidy, seed money and
working capital required and to get familiarise with the implementing and fund mobilisation
mechanisms of project.

“Project formulation is the process of translation of an idea or concept into a specific scheme
and plan of action. Preparation or formulation of project proposal. It incorporates the legal,
technical and financial details as per the guidelines / requirements of the funding agency.”
(S.K. Kulshereshtha)
“Project formulation is the process of presenting a project idea in a form in which it can be
subjected to comparative appraisal for the purpose of determining in definitive terms the
priority which the project should receive during the course of resource allocation under
conditions of severe constraint on resource availability.”- Derived Definition

the initial event to the second event and finally shows the network of the entire project.
Duration: This is the estimated time, consumes in any unit (i.e. in days, weeks
or months) required to finish an activity. Duration effects the performance of the project.
Dummy Activity is a simulated activity of
sorts, one that is of a zero duration and is
created for the sole purpose of
demonstrating a specific relationship and Figure 4: Depiction of activity and
path of action on the arrow diagramming events in network diagram

method.
Seed Money refers to the money invested. New seed money options are also
emerging from crowd funding. It is a security offering whereby one or more parties
that have some connection to a new enterprise invest the funds necessary to start the
business
Reserve cost is the highest price a buyer is willing to pay for a good or service; or;
the smallest price at which a seller is willing to sell a good or service. Reservation prices
are commonly used in auctions.
Scheduling is a mechanical process for setting in order the various activities by
fixing the starting and finishing time to each part of work in such manner that the whole
work should be done in an orderly and systematic way.
Break-even point is a technique for
which identifying the point where
the total revenue is just sufficient to
cover the total cost. The formula for
break-even point is fixed costs/fixed
expense over contribution per unit. It is a
point where any difference between Figure 5: Graphical representation of
Break- even point

equivalent changes side.
Earliest Start Time for an activity is the earliest possible time on which the activity
can begin on the assumption that all the proceeding activities can start before its actual
estimated beginning time.
Slack/ Float: The number of days, week, month etc. in which the activity may
be delayed without delaying the completion of project.

Method of planning and scheduling is the important part of detail project report because
these are the method in which listing pre-planned schedule for implementation the project
on ground and to check the progress of the project, by knowing the delays came to the
others alternative to achieve the successfully implementing the project on ground in
schedule time it covers basically two methods as follows.
Conventional Method
1. Gantt Chart or Bar Chart
2. Milestone Chart
3. Flow Chart
Network Method
1. Critical Path Method (CPM)
2. Project Evaluation and Reviewing Techniques (PERT)
Conventional Method
Conventional methods are basically the graphical representation of scheduling of the
project in which according to our scope of exercise description of “Gantt Chart” as follows.
It was introduced by “Henry Laurence Gantt” in second decade of the 20th century. Gantt
Charts are a way to graphically show progress of a project. Management of a project is made
easier if it is viewed as small manageable items where the dependencies are visually
illustrated, parallel processes are discovered, the overall processing time determined and
Progress tracked. With a project management tool, such as a Gantt chart, all subtasks of a task
can be viewed graphically. It provides a graphic schedule for the planning and controlling
of work, and recording progress towards stages of a project.
Steps draw a Gantt chart
Step 1- List all activities in the plan
For each task, show the earliest start date, estimated length of time it will take, and whether it
is parallel or sequential, If tasks are sequential, show which stages they depend on.
Step 2- Head up graph paper with the days or weeks through completion
Step 3- Plot tasks onto graph paper
Show each task starting on the earliest possible date and represent it as a bar, with the length
of the bar being the length of the task. Above the task bars, mark the time taken to complete
them.

Network Methods
Network technique is a technique for planning, scheduling (programming) and controlling the
progress of projects. This is very useful for projects which are complex in nature or where
activities are subject to considerable degree of uncertainty in performance time.
The critical path method (CPM) is a project modelling technique developed by Walker &
Kelly & the emphasis was on the trade-off between the cost of the project and its overall
completion time. The critical path method (CPM) is a project modelling technique. It is an
algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities. CPM is commonly used with all forms of
projects, including construction, aerospace and defence, software development, research
projects etc. CPM calculates the longest path of planned activities to logical end points or to
the end of the project, and the earliest and latest that each activity can start and finish without
making the project longer.
Applications: It is used in Production management for the jobs of repetitive in nature where
the activity time estimates can be predicted with considerable certainty due to the existence
of past experience.

PERT was developed by the US Navy for the planning and control of the Polaris missile
program and the emphasis was on completing the program in the shortest possible time. In
addition, PERT had the ability to cope with uncertain activity completion times. PERT is a
method to analyse the involved tasks in completing a given project, especially the time
needed to complete each task, & to identify the minimum time needed to complete the total
project. It is applied as a decision-making tool designed to save time in achieving end-
objectives, and is of particular interest to those engaged in research and development
programs for which time is a critical factor as it has no crash activity.
Applications: It is used in Production management for non-repetitive jobs (R & D works),
where the time and cost estimates tend to be quite uncertain. This technique uses
probabilistic time estimates.
Vital Characteristics: The new technique takes consideration of 3 factors that influence
successful achievement of R & D programs objectives: Time, Resources, & Technical
Performance Specifications. PERT is based on probabilities so we consider three time
periods
• Optimistic period is shortest possible time in which the activity can be completed
without complications occurring once in hundred.
• Pessimistic period is longest time span for the activity to
complete.
• Most Likely Time period in which the activity can be completed considering
normal circumstances.
• Based upon weightage mean with the
formula
PERT= [(4X Most likely) + Optimistic time+ Pessimistic
time]/6
Benefits of Network techniques
It helps in dividing activities function wise & responsibility wise which makes it possible to
coordinate the work of different agencies. It permits one to take advance actions & timely
decisions to reduce delays in completion of project. It permits greater flexibility in having

Plans at a Glance
Four types of plans which incorporate the planning and design of C.B.D, Sector-87 were
studied and the DPR for the same.
Layout Plan
The layout plan is based upon the concept of pedestrianization. The heritage complex is
placed in the centre of the site along the axis and in the front of the grand Central Park. The
site is a mix of various land-uses such as residential, commercial, public/ semi- public placed
in an order to enhance compatibility and inter-dependency. Designated vending zones are

__________________________________________________________________________________________
provided as per the Protection of street vendors act, 2014, facilities for their parking, drinking
water, toilets are also provided at a walking distance from the vending zones
Placement of the Components
Sitting spaces are provided near the exit point from basement to ground level. Furthermore,
important buildings are aligned along the central axis of road which create huge impact of the
building. There is sense of enclosure as well as sense of surprise when visitor moves in
commercial zone. The pathways and the pedestrian tracks lead to central park and major
central plazas. The most accessible arterial road (A) caters mostly commercial components.
Hence, the SCOs are placed near the approach of the arterial road. The Hotel is placed at the
corner near junction (1) to promote maximum visibility to the tourists. There is green buffer
of 15 meter throughout the hotel site and the site is accessible through the dedicated entry
routes. Which in turn, force the users to use the approach way. Thus, concept of introvert
planning is achieved. Formal vending zone is provided as per the protection of street vendors
act, 2014. Storage Space is provided near to the street vending zone. Further, utility
infrastructure like taps, power supply, gas pipe line, sanitation complex, sitting adequate
sitting spaces are facilitated to the zone. The zones are dedicated to the stationary vendors.
Piazza is of appropriate length and it can easily integrate with proposed functional activates
i.e., the town hall, bank square telephone exchange, post office etc. (Refer Map)
The components are further distributed by following norms and standards provided by Punjab
Urban Planning & Development Authority (PUDA) as well as URDPFI Guidelines. The
ground coverage computed is 16% against the maximum limit of 25%.

1,99,317 sq.m.
Landscape Plan
Utilities Plan
Utilities are infrastructure services provided to consumers that are sometimes considered to be
‘public’ services, that is, they are supplied to the public and are important for the normal
functioning of society. Site is provided with various facilities like Water Supply, Sewage
pipelines, Gas pipelines, Power Supply, Storm Water Drainage network, Rainwater
Harvesting Systems etc. (Refer Map)

As per Clarence A. Parry, 1/4th of mile i.e., 400 metre is the maximum walkable distance
suitable for a pedestrian to walk. Thus, keeping this in the mind, parking is provided in the
centre to make the CBD walkable for all. Even, cycle track cum E-Rickshaw track has been
provided to facilitate the public transport users. The vehicular circulation and pedestrian
circulation have been well segregated. The parking mostly is on periphery around the piazza
so it did not interfere with circulation of pedestrian piazza. Bus Drop off is provided on all
four side for easy pedestrian accessibility. There is no conflict between pedestrian and
vehicular movement. For taxi users, there is provision of drop off point. Further, there also
provision of waiting area for pickup. 2-meter-wide cycle track is provided within the site
having shady trees provided along the track. Bus Que Shelter, Taxi drop-off points, Bike
Parking, Private Car Parking, are provided on all side thus making the site accessible for all
income and age group people.
