On completing this capstone unit the students will
Understand the stages and processes involved in conducting independent research.
Demonstrate an ability to negotiate and set critical deadlines and work to them
Develop a sophisticated research proposal and design and implement it
Produce a comprehensive report indicating the relevant theoretical basis for the research, the justification for the research strategy pursued, the findings or results and the implications of these for the future. Limitations in the research will also be acknowledged.

Product Deliverable – Sim4Projects Simulation Paper
Mandatory Items Include: • APA format is required for all Davenport papers • Cover Page • Table of Contents • Length. Content shall be 7 – 9 pages (double-spaced) of written work. You may have tables in an appendix but under no circumstances should the total assignment be more than 20 pages. • Content Areas: o PM Concepts. Include associated textbook content specifically addressing schedule, budget, functionality, resource allocation, and stakeholder satisfaction. You may include outside research/references as well. ? Cite specific content from out textbook as it applies to your experience in the simulation. For example, address the “triple constraint” and how this concept was observed/experienced in the simulation. Make sure to cite all sources as needed. ? Analysis / Explanation of how you used the reports* during the simulation. (Budget, Resource, WBS (task list), Schedule, Period Results) o Team Dynamics. Content shall include what went well, and what did not work in the virtual project specifically addressing, teamwork, decisionmaking, conflict resolution, organization, and time management skills. o Simulation Managerial Actions. Discuss the Managerial Actions taken throughout the simulation. Analyzie how these affected the project and relate them to the textbook content. o Include a minimum of five applicable clip art figures or images. This can be anything that adds value to your paper.

The body of the paper should include a narrative explaining the analysis from reviewing the reports: ? Simulation Reports GPMT287 Team Final Project Paper 2017-2018 AY DM page 2 of 3 • Four Sim4Projects Period Results: First period, Last period, Best period, Worst period • Ideas for analysis: o Did you meet the period milestone – How?…or Why not? o Why was this your Best Period? Your Worst Period? o What adjustments did you make after the period? ? MS Project Reports • Work Breakdown Structure Report from Microsoft Project • Resource Assignment Report from Microsoft Project • Project Schedule showing all project activities. • Project Budget showing all project activities. o Note: MS Project Reports must include the WBS number column (ie 1.5.3). o Note: These reports may be combined into one or two reports. o Note: Use the EV assignment as the basis for your MS Project reports.
