 ASSIGNMENT

You are organising a fresher's party for your juniors. State the
objective of the project?
The objective of project management for organizing a fresher's party for juniors revolves
around effectively managing various aspects to ensure the event's success.

Scope
Scope management involves defining the purpose, activities, and boundaries of the party.
This includes determining the type of entertainment, venue size, catering options, and any
additional features to enhance the experience. It's essential to align the scope with the
expectations and preferences of the attendees while considering the available resources.

Time
Time management is crucial to ensure the event occurs as scheduled. This includes creating a
detailed timeline with milestones for tasks such as venue booking, vendor selection,
promotion, and logistics planning. Adhering to the timeline helps prevent delays and ensures
everything is ready for the party on time.

Cost
Cost management involves allocating resources efficiently to stay within the designated
budget. This includes estimating expenses for venue rental, decorations, food and beverages,
entertainment, and any other necessary items. Monitoring expenses throughout the planning
process and making adjustments as needed helps prevent overspending and financial strain.

Performance
Performance management focuses on delivering a high-quality experience for the attendees.
This entails ensuring that all aspects of the party meet or exceed expectations in terms of
entertainment, ambiance, food quality, and overall enjoyment. Feedback mechanisms such as
surveys or direct communication with attendees can help evaluate the event's success and
identify areas for improvement.

By effectively managing scope, time, cost, and performance, the project management
objective is to orchestrate a fresher's party that leaves a positive impression on the juniors,
fosters a sense of belonging within the student community, and sets the tone for a successful
academic year ahead.
