Assignment
Use the Running Case and the NPV-ROI Spreadsheet Template provided to complete the following task for the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project.
Running Case:
Tony Prince and his team are working on the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project. They have been asked to refine the existing cost estimate for the project, so they can evaluate supplier bids and have a solid cost baseline for evaluating performance. Recall that your schedule and cost goals are to complete the project in six months for under $200,000.
Prepare a cost model for the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project using the following work breakdown structure (WBS) and assumptions. Assume a labor rate of $100/hour for the project manager and $60/hour for the other project team members. None of the work will be outsourced, labor costs for users are not included, and there will be no additional hardware costs. Enter the estimated labor hours per each WBS section. The total estimate should be $200,000 with the total for testing being approximately 10% of the total, combined cost of the website design and development.
