Assignment Brief:

As part of the formal assessment for the HND programme you are required to submit an assignment for each module. Please refer to your Student Handbook for full details of the programme assessment scheme and general information on preparing and submitting assignments.

After completing the Project Management for Business module you should be able to:

LO1 Understand project management principles


LO2 Be able to manage a project’s human resources


LO3 Be able to apply project processes and procedures


Assignment Context / Scenario
In order to fulfil the requirements of this module assessment students are encouraged to apply the theories and concepts studied throughout the QCF Project Management for Business module to a real business project that is yet to be undertaken, or which has already been completed. Please focus on a project in the organization that you are working in or in a local Hong Kong organization that you can have access to the relevant information.

You are required to plan / review all aspects of the management of the project and to evaluate the project’s success.

Examples of projects that could be used for this assignment are as follows:

Example Project A
The redesign of office space to accommodate new members of staff / new furniture

Example Project B
Implementation of a new computer software package / system - either for use by the whole organisation or by one department.

Example Project C
Construct an extension to an existing building.

These are only examples and you will be able to think of other business projects.  Please contact the module tutor for advice if you are unsure of the suitability of your chosen project for this assignment, or if you are struggling to decide on a project to use.


Assignments which are based purely on theory, with little or no application to a real business project, will be deemed to NOT have fulfilled the learning outcomes.
