    Video Conferencing Pilot Project B
    Background:
    MacDowell’s is looking to pilot test video conferencing equipment to assist in the communication between franchisee restaurants and the central office. Prior to a full implementation, MacDowells wants to test the effectiveness of video conferencing through a pilot program involving 28 individual restaurant sites split evenly across the four management regions (North, East, West and South). This project will involve managing the selection, purchase and installation of video-conferencing equipment, training of staff, and functional testing of the equipment for these specific sites.
    You have already undertaken some initial planning steps in identifying the resources available for the project, the phases of work, the tasks required in those phases, and the estimated resources required for those tasks. The Vice-President of Operations has also allocated a budget of $180,000 for the project. The project should start on 22 August 2016 and be completed by 28 October 2016.

     Report on the live testing performance (24 hours HR & IT)
     Project closeout meeting
    Resource Rules:
     Employees work a standard 8 hour day.
     Where more than one type of resource is used on a task the hours need to be performed by each of those resource types (e.g. 20 hours IT & HR = 20 hours of IT resource AND 20 hours of HR resource).
     While MacDowells restaurants are open 7 days a week, the project team will only work Monday to Friday as per their employment contracts.
     Meetings are generally anticipated to take 2 hours of work time for preparation and 2 hours for the actual meeting. Accordingly half a day (4 hours) should be allocated to all attendees as a default time for any meeting process. A meeting room should be booked for all meetings.
     It is standard MacDowells project methodology to have a quality control person undertake a review of any major task (defined as tasks that have 40 hours or more of total work effort). Where you identify any applicable tasks, a Quality Control task of 8 hours should be inserted at the end of the task and should be completed prior to any successor tasks being scheduled.
     All install sites will require training; however video conferencing units will need to be installed at a location before training can commence at that location.
     It should be assumed that all team members that have worked on tasks relevant to a particular meeting should be involved in that meeting.
     Note that the equipment cost per unit is an estimate based on our initial inquiries – this may change depending upon the final response from suppliers.
