Project Summary
From this assignment, I’ve learned to produce a thorough project analysis. Furthermore, I’m able to conduct the application of processes, methods, knowledge and skills to achieve the project objectives. Most importantly, I’ve noticed the fundamental value of quality and risk management of a project. Through proper planning, controlling and monitoring on quality and risk, we can avoid unnecessary cost incurred on our project. It is then I came to realize that actually there’s several structured techniques and tools for quality and risk management to help in projecting a proposed development to keep a construction project up to standard and reduce its risks by identifying, analyzing and controlling throughout its project cycle.
