Attached is the previous submission, we are just updating the document. This is the second of three assignments that, as a whole, will cover all aspects of the project life cycle relevant to your selected project. Assume that your project sponsor has reviewed the project proposal and has asked that you make some changes to it. Provide a brief summary of your project. Update the goals and objectives based upon your project sponsor's feedback, and add two more goals and objectives. (Use your professor's feedback to update your goals and objectives.)  Contrary to popular belief – project goals and objectives (you must provide at least FOUR for each) has nothing to do with solely delivering the project on time and within budget (although time and budget can be a part just not the only part). Goals expand and or add dimension to "what" the project will deliver. Objective provide "how" these same goals will be reached. Example: My scope is to build a 3 bedroom 2 bath house; my project goals would be that the house be 1. Eco friendly and 2. Energy efficient. My project objectives are how I will reach these project goals: Example 1. Use chemical free materials and 2. Use the best energy efficient appliances.    Project Goals ARE RELATED to Project Objectives. State your project goal followed by the project objectives. ******** First - delivering project on time, within budget and within scope are NOT project goals/objectives. These are the natural expectations of all projects (project management goals) also refer to as the Triple Constraint or Golden Triangle: If my scope is to deliver a security software system: Goal 1 (What?) Software must be easy to use ---> Objective 1 (How?) Use friendly navigational screens Goal 2 (What?) Software should prevent Hacking ---> Objective 2 (How?) Research/implement best anti Hacking coding  All the goals provide more details to the WHAT is to be deliver..and objectives detail HOW these goals will be achieved. Describe at least three key milestones and/or deliverables for your project. Milestones are group of related tasks (Milestone: Foundation : related tasks: pull permit, order heavy equipment, dig foundation, haul dirt, reinforce foundation, install plumbing etc etc.- when all related tasks are done then the milestone is complete) Describe a high-level timeline that includes key tasks and deadlines. Key tasks specifically related to the project: activities that must be completed to deliver project. NOT TASKS: MEETINGS, REPORTS, PLANNING, DEFINING. These are PM processes not tasks, Estimate the project's overall cost and any key staffing and non-staffing resources needed. If not using non-staffing resources (rental equipment , space etc) make sure you state SO. 2 Project: Real-Time Location Systems Daniel Bravo Dr. Carlos J Febry BUS375 July 31st, 2021 Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) A Brief Summary of The Project The project involves developing an automated system that ensures smooth workflow by eliminating delays and long waits. This development and implementation get accomplished by combining data resources and automated entry status updates to track patient records. Thus, installing an automatic patient tracking system increases the workflow. The project remains significantly relevant to improving emergence healthcare delivery upon its completion and implementation. In every healthcare context, ED plays the role of a primary entry point into the healthcare facility and depicts the performance of the whole hospital in terms of patient satisfaction scores, taken time for admission or discharge, and care quality delivery (1). ED delays have severely impacted patient safety and satisfaction levels. Therefore, this project will prioritize patients with acute emergency conditions by helping to reduce ED crowding. This crowding leads to delayed admission and treatment, resulting in prolonged wait times and loss of critically ill and injured patients (2). Thus, selecting this RTLS project is crucial in understanding the efficiency of delivering emergency services and improving the current situation. Project Goals and Project Objectives Goals i. RTLS to facilitate automatic tracking of ED patient data and admission at admission and discharge points ii. RTLS shorten waiting time and minimize delays at the ED's waiting bay Objectives i. Rely on the IT experts to ensure complete development and installation of the RTLS ii. Equip end-users (nurses at the ED) with the necessary skills for operating the system for a smooth workflow. Measurable Project Objectives- (5 W's and H) Who: Emergency response team What: RTLS Where: ED When: During admission and discharge Why: Promote smooth workflow with efficiency in emergency service delivery to shorten waiting time and delays How: Long waiting time and delays identified. RTLS for ED explored, roles tracked, and execution inputs availed. The Project Management Structure The management of this project is by setting up a dedicated project team headed by a project manager. This team will work together to dedicate the final project to SQ Health Hospital. This facility becomes the critical customer of the project since it needs to enhance effectiveness and efficiency at its emergency department. However, other stakeholders include the sponsor, nurses, physicians, IT experts, and suppliers. Without these stakeholders, the project management structure or team becomes unfunctional or ineffective. The management structure enables easy coordination and implementation of scheduled project activities. This structure establishes an atmosphere that fosters interactions among team members with minimized disputes, confusion, uncertainty, interruptions, and overlaps, mainly at the initiation stage. Overall, the creation of an organizational structure for use in the project becomes a critical decision. Under this structure, a project manager has the overall authority to assign and reassign project tasks, roles, and activities to team members. The management structure shows where various stakeholders get placed, their authority, and their responsibility. It establishes working relationships and lines connection and the communication between the team members. Project Manager CB Healthline (sponsor) Project contractor Physicians Nurses Supplier IT experts Stakeholders' Roles and Their Impact On The Project The Project Manager: The primary role is developing a project plan and approving the used methodology. Also, the manager will be the overall coordinator in the management structure to team members meet different project needs at initiation, planning, execution, and closure phases. The project manager will use a formal environment to influence team members and all stakeholders to do their best in finishing their tasks and roles before the deadline. Also, the manager will streamline the communication to ensure information and feedback flows and hold progress review meetings to avoid deviation from the project's goals or duplication of effort and overlaps. Project Management Institute (3) reveals that the project manager ensures team members works within the nine knowledge areas established by A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge for good outcomes. The significant impact of this project manager on the project is increased efficiency in planning and execution and completion of the project before the stated timeline. Thus, the impact is evidenced by good planning that enables appropriate execution and control processes or attainment of the project's goals. Project Sponsor: CB Health will approving the project budget and communicate the goals. This approval ensures the commencement of various activities towards project actualization. Project Contractor: Validates objectives via testing solutions, inspects project deliverables to meet the requirements, and gathers customer (hospital) requirements. Nurses and Physicians: As the project's end-users, they will conduct a pre-test, record the number of in-patients and out-patients on the new system, and provide feedback on the system's weaknesses. IT Specialists: Develop patient databases, manage information security, install and configure networks, and offer training to end-users. References 1. Kelton, D. K., Szulewski, A., & Howes, D.
