Known for its high quality and authentic Italian pizzas, Royale now produces and delivers 40 types of gourmet and classic pizzas. The shop is located in one of the busiest streets of Melbourne CBD, near the Southern Cross station, and offers its customers a fresh food menu, via its online (delivery of online orders) and offline (dine-in) channels. Close to the Central Business District (CBD) and railway station, Spencer street has a mixture of businesses, including tertiary education facilities, hotels and apartment buildings. Royale pizza has a wide customer base including locals and tourists, and must cater to the needs of diverse range of customers with different backgrounds. The shop is open till late night, so it is a great option for the tourists and other customers to order their pizzas when not many other choices are available. The opportunity: Royale Pizza is continuously trying to increase its food quality and ultimately increase its annual sales and profitability. Recently the shop owners have decided to renovate the entire pizza shop and buy some new equipments enabling them to expand their business by serving other types of food (e.g., fish & chips and pastas), reduce their food waste, and increase their profitability by 25%. The major renovation project includes flooring, installation of air-conditioning system, dust-free painting, increasing compressor capacity, and professional cleaning of kitchen exhaust system. Equipment would include purchasing 3 deep fryers, 2 boilers, 1 dough roller, point of sale system with installation of suitable software and hardware to run it. The stairs located in the rear area of the shop also need to be removed in order to provide more food preparation space for the kitchen staff. So, installation of the purchased equipment can be only done after completion of construction activities. As part of the renovation project, the shop owners aim to create additional dining-in spaces to serve more customers. So, 2 new sets of chairs and portable tables also need to be purchased. Shop owners estimated that the total cost of the work would be roughly around AU$40,000. The start date of the project will be 1st of March. The target date of project completion would be 4 months from the start date. As the shop should be closed during the construction, installation and painting activities, no sales and revenue have been predicted during this period. Technical manager is playing a big role in this project, assisting with shop re-design, sourcing, procurement, delivery and installation of new equipment. Other parties included in this project are: shop supervisor, installers, equipements suppliers, contractor, technical and safety compliance certification bodies, and project management consultant. In the first meeting held with owners, technical manager raised an important issue and explained why construction and installation stages cannot be performed at the same time. He also mentioned that there are some electricity wires under the rear stairs which should be carefully taken care of by contractors when removing the stairs. He also indicated that the contractors should not remove the water faucet in the rear area of the shop due to the safety issues. The safety inspections will be conducted every fortnight and will take at least 4 hours. Throughout the inspection process, all the power appliances’ cables will be tested, tagged, and certified as “safe” after completion of each stage. Mechanical ventilation compliance should also be checked as one of the safety considerations. All the safety controls have associated costs which need to be carefully considered in project budget plan. As shown in Table 1, the whole project can be divided into 4 main project delivery stages. So, not being able to finishing the project on time, the contractors will incur a daily penalty of AU$300 that should be paid to the shop owners.
