Project Management: Discussion Prompt
Selected Projects
One of the more complex projects in Marshall, Minnesota, is a new community health center that will expand healthcare accessibility in rural areas. The project will involve funding, permitting, recruiting staff, and coordinating with local healthcare practitioners. A simple project is a neighborhood cleanup event intended to enhance local parks and roads. The project requires coordinating with volunteers, purchasing supplies, and coordinating with the municipality regarding waste collection: Project Management: Discussion Prompt.
Description of the Projects
Community Health Center Development
The project will establish a new health center in Marshall, Minnesota, to promote healthcare accessibility in rural areas. The stakeholders involved are local government leaders, healthcare practitioners, residents, and funding bodies. The objectives are securing grant funding, employment of experienced medical personnel, and regulation compliance. The constraining factors are lack of funding, lengthy approval processes, and recruiting medical personnel into rural areas.
Community Cleanup Event
The project aims to coordinate a volunteer-based activity in clearing parks and roads to enhance environmental consciousness and neighborhood pride. The stakeholders involved are residents, government officials, environmentalists, and volunteering bodies. The aims are recruiting volunteers, effective waste collection, and enhancing participation. The limitations are limited volunteers, climatic conditions, and waste collection logistic planning.
WBS Complexity
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) will be more detailed in the Community Health Center Development Project because it is more extensive, lengthy, regulated, and demanding regarding resources. The project scope, from funding through construction, manpower, and compliance, will be broken down into smaller, more manageable activities (Love & Ika, 2021). A more extensive scope will translate into more depth in WBS because each phase (site location, infrastructure, licenses, and operation) must be detailed extensively.
Some WBS development challenges are scope creep because new regulations or new services can bring requirements into the project. Projects must adhere to a planned, structured strategy with a clear start and finish because they are subject to time and resource constraints, including finance and personnel (Kloppenborg et al., 2022). Alignment with stakeholders can be difficult with multiple stakeholders having different agendas. The resources’ limitations in terms of funding and manpower can cause project delays with repeated WBS modification.

Question 
Consider two projects that are upcoming within your company, community, state, public school, sports team, college, personal life, etc. These projects could range from launching a new product, organizing a community event, implementing a new software system at your college, to planning a personal endeavor like a home renovation or organizing a significant event. If you can’t think of any, do a quick view online and you’ll find examples.
1) Identify two projects. One should be more complex, and the other less complex.
2) Briefly describe the two projects: Provide a brief overview of each project including potential objectives, key stakeholders, and any known constraints (budget, time, resources).
3) Predict the WBS complexity:
Project Management: Discussion Prompt
- Based on what you know about the projects, which one do you believe will require a more detailed WBS (Work breakdown structure) and why?
- How do you anticipate the scope of the project will influence the depth and detail of the WBS?
- What challenges do you foresee in developing and managing the WBS for this project? (Discuss obstacles such as scope creep, stakeholder alignment, or resource constraints).
