Initiation of the project

The Initiation Process consists of those processes performed to define a new project or a new
phase of an existing project by obtaining agreement to start the project or phase. Within the
initiating processes, the initial scope is defined and initial financial resources are committed.
Internal and external stakeholders who will interact and influence the overall outcome of the
project are identified. Or in simple word we can say that in this first phase of the project the
project charter and the stakeholders are identified.
Developing Project Charter
Develop Project Charter is the process of developing a document that formally authorizes a
project or a phase and documenting initial requirements that satisfy the stakeholder’s needs
and expectations.

 Duration

Start date 1st January 2020

End date 31 December 2020

 Estimated Budget
In this project keeping all expenses in mind I can say that the estimated budget require
for this project is 15,254,350.
 Procurement plan
All the material mentioned in the cost plan is going to procure from different suppliers
at given cost. And this material will purchase before 1st May.
2. Enterprise environmental factors:
Environmental factors which may influence this project are
 Organization Culture
 Work hour
 Holidays
 Internal factors like labour strike, shortage of material, unavailability of man
power, etc.
 External factors like load shedding, public strike against any event, political
factors, inflation etc.

 .
 Triple constraint
The triple constraint consists of time, scope and cost. The objective of this project is
to achieve the triple constraint.
Our 1st focus in this project is to complete the construction within one year as
mentioned in the contract. For this purpose we construct a table and distribute our
project phases in different months.

Initiation 1st Jan- 31 Jan (1month)

Planning 1nd Feb- 30 Mar (2months)
Execution 1st Apr - 25 Nov (8months)
Monitoring and control M&C for whole execution
Closing 1st Dec- 31 Dec (1month)

The 2nd focus is to achieve the target with in given budget and for this purpose the
cost for different material is already estimated so that we would not exceed from the
given budget. The estimated budget is 14,365,047 and in these 14,365,047 all
procurement will done in future for the 1 canal house with basement, ground and 1 st
floor.
The 3rd important factor in this project is scope identification. Scope of this
project is to construct house with in given time and budget. Scope tells about the
requirement of the project. Like in our project different dimensions is mention in
scope statement for example,

Number of rooms 15
Number of kitchens 3
Number of bath rooms 12
Loan 1
Terrace 1
Garage 1

Other than this information the time taken to complete these is also mention in the
scope statement. We will try to not exceed from our scope and finishing the project
within the time and costing limit.
