Executive Summary
As the current limitation of resource like software and hardware, does not meet
increasing the demand for corporate training, a new training centre will need to
be built to secure major clients over the last 2 years and develop new clients. In
addition, the new technique in education and management will be implemented
in new centre. The purpose for this project charter is to provide essential
contents as a guide line for project management, and describe how the project
team will provide MASC Training Consultants with management program about
new training centre.
The project chart presents how the project will be conducted; having a clear
scope and MOV, providing a well organized Work Breakdown Structure to
implement the project, and detailed analyzing risks. However, time and budget
estimation given from project plan is rough. The time and budget based events
will not be accurate to some extent, such as the implementation of some
deliverable may change because of the variation of time and budget. Therefore,
more detailed and accurate time and budge estimation should be completed in
the later process.
In addition, this project charter does not consider the other unexpected issues
which may happen during the process of implementing the project; as a result,
more reliable implementation strategies need to be investigated as the program
goes on.

8. Recommendations
Although the project plan about creating the new training centre and the
technology components sub-project provides timely and useful estimation for
the entire project, it still has some deficiency. The actual progress may not fit the
plan such as the time and budget completely because of the rough estimation.
Therefore, more detailed and accurate time and budge estimation should be
completed in the later process. In addition, this project plan does not consider
the other unexpected issues which may happen during the process of
implementing the project; as a result, more reliable implementation strategies
need to be investigated as the program goes on.
