Group 3 Collaboration
OBJECTIVE

GROUP PROJECT Phases

Phase 0 – meet the project team

(occurs during Week 6)

Use this week to meet as a group, go over the phases of this project, and think about how you will handle this 10 week project. The scenario is genuine. This actually happened. And there are consulting groups that are routinely used to come in when a disaster like this happens to help fix it. You are a member of that consulting company, and this project has landed on your desk!

. You have been assigned to a group (on the group discussion boards) use this space to meet, you have a variety of tools you can use: emails, blog, wikis. . Hold at least one meeting this week with your group and determine who will be responsible for what in completing this project. You have two points of delivery: Week 10 and Week 15.

Phase I – develop a project scope of activities

Your consulting team has been asked to do an initial bid to “fix this mess”. Consider everything you will need to do to get this practice back on track.

(due by end of Week 10) includes:

. Marketing information about your consulting firm . A program plan (identify what’s wrong and how to fix it) . Identify project deliverables (what you will bring to the table: ideas, supervision, contract workers, etc)

� . Identify project activities ( an internal document of who is doing what on your team)

Phase II – deliver your project to client

(due by end of Week 15)

Your consulting team won the bid, and you have had ten weeks to work on the project. It is time to “earn your fee”. Document your solutions, and share with the client what your ideas are to help them. The documentation should be detailed enough that they can use your report as a guide to implement the changes needed.

. Turn in your Consulting Project Report . Instructor will share all reports with the class so you can see how other groups approached the same scenario.
