  Total   Team Project Management Plan The team members should understand importance of goals and scope of the project. The goal of the projects helps the team members to understand and govern the limitations of the projects. The scope of the project helps to define the need of the projects. The goal of a project helps the members to know the project objectives and defining the scope of the project. The steps involved for defining the scope of the projects are as follows: 1. Estimating budget of the project 2. Describing tasks to the team members 3. Defining project objectives 4. Allocating resources. both material and human resources 5. Schedule the duration and timing of the project. Some of the challenges facing project teams are? Project Manager does not have much knowledge of each of the task/tool. In that case he needs to delegate some of the technical responsibilities under the current assignment to some people in the team. ? Few new joiners did not have the necessary training and now they do not have time to undergo training along with their work. This is going to delay their current work. 1 Team Project Management Plan ? Partially completed work by part time employees are handed to new team members and status of the work at each node is not clear/unknown. To start the project from the handed over condition takes more time because you do not know the thought process of the person who has worked on it earlier. ? Interpersonal issues among team members. Some of these conflicts occur between a young, part-time contingent of student workers and the full-time employees. ? Clearance issues/ permission issues due to which the timeline tends to get extended and time remaining for the subsequent task is lesser than estimated. I have seen all these problems arise in my team as well as in some of the other teams too. A few other problems tend to appear in a project: ? Even among the skilled workforce there is a gap of skills. So senior employee tends to exploit this gap to draw the Supervisor's attention towards themselves. ? A project timeline is created depending upon the work that needs to be done. But many a times you need to attend meetings with the client and other members, which is not accounted for in the timeline and hence reduces the available time for the task. ? If you are trying to help your fellow colleague on some issues, you are losing out on your available time and nobody accounts this for, not even your supervisor. So, in this case team members develop a tendency to not support anybody at the cost of their available time. ? At times, some technical knowledge is essential. But these can be developed over time. What is more important is that the team members should develop, behavioral and interpersonal skills, to manage any critical situation. This helps the team to be bonded 2 Team Project Management Plan together and work coherently towards the organizational goals. When they have less internal issues to solve, they can focus on their work more effectively. Also, documentation-based work is a skill that most employees lack. This helps everybody keep track of what they are doing, what steps they have taken to complete the previous part of the job and the framework they need to follow to get the next part of the job done. Handing over incomplete or step-based work becomes much easier in this case. Understanding the goals and the scope of the project is critical to the project success. If you do not know where you should be after completion of every step and what ought to be the final outcome of the project, you may not even be able to chart out your plan of work, or you will end up doing something that is not required. Scope should be understood because, ? You should know where your work is leading to. ? A project is a huge work and there is a scope of doing a huge number of things in the project, but all these works may not be necessary for the client or you may not even have the requisite timing to complete the job. ? At times, scope helps the client understand what the amount of work is defined for the project team within the given timeline. 3 Team Project Management Plan ReferencesOropesa-Vento, M., García-Alcaraz, J.
