Project Management (BUS 5003)
Project Proposal Form
Evaluating the operational system in Natural resources to enhance Human
welfare.
Compliance X Operational Strategic
The project identifies and helps solve various issues in Natural resource
management that can improve the quality and effectiveness for the usage of
resources.
The project will address major issues regarding the over usage of resources
and about the extinction of non-renewable resources and the significant
impact on future generations.
The project aims to provide education to the humans about the extinction of
resources and by educating them about the other form of conventional energy
which is eco- friendly and available in abundance.
1. Provide education to people about the impact of over utilization of
resources.
2. Make the conventional form of natural resources more affordable and
feasible.
3. Promoting the usage of eco-friendly resources to avoid damage to the
environment.
The natural resources will diminish gradually over a period of time and will not
be available to the future generations and the time for them to recover again
would be high.
Risk Probability Impact
If the cost of implementation increases due to some
economic policy.

If the changes in consumption pattern of people is

not supported by the government.
Then it might be huge hit since the availability and MEDIUM HIGH

How will we measure

success? 1. Increase in usage of Eco-Friendly products.
2. Awareness among Public.

The project will take 24-26 months

How long will the
project take?
Include a brief timeline for
the entire project
(quarters or months), and
sequence the objectives
listed above (which comes
first, second, etc.).
 Q1 major milestone / key activity – Study various models adopted by
different countries and problems with our model.
 Q2 major milestone / key activity – Find new ways to increase the
awareness among the public and keep motivating them to use the eco-
friendly form of products.
 Q3 major milestone / key activity – Address the issues with the public,
community and increase the usage of eco- friendly form of resources to
obtain any form energy or for type of consumption. The government should
also promote and support people who use this form of energy although its
expensive and not feasible by everyone.
 Q4 major milestone / key activity – Execution and collect data obtained
from the outcome of the new process, for future reference.

2. What type of project management structure do you anticipate in the organization?

Provide two examples to demonstrate why you selected that structure and identify three
strategies for how you will leverage the advantages, and/or manage the disadvantages
related to the project management structure you selected (can be bullet points).
