(In the plan)
Our assumptions and constraints consist of varied outcomes that we are working to

achieve and the challenges. However, they may not be accurate or complete. Some constraints

may have not been realized and the possibilities of mishaps and hindrances are not written off,

given that the team cannot account for the actions of the actual arms and legs of the project

which are our suppliers and labourers.

We assume and hope our suppliers and labourers will perform flawlessly however there

are things that can happen where we or the suppliers have little to no control. For example, we

assumed materials would arrive on-time and in good-order, however the weather or an accident

may be an unexpected impediment and the task to rectify it may take unsolicited time and delay

the project’s completion. Secondly, contracted workers may experience untimely sickness or

physical ailments that may hinder them from producing high quality work in the standard time

specified. Unforeseen constraints will be recorded as we encounter them.

With these being a possibility, a contingency allowance and fund will be employed.
