ITEC 640 Final Examination
Fall 2016
Points will be deducted for exam responses received after the due date and time (since grades are
due quickly please submit on time to make sure you receive credit). A few comments about the questions and your response ? this is a graduate level course.
These questions are intended to provoke in-depth thinking about project management. To
receive full credit, you need to do more than just quote the textbooks and/or other sources ?
you need to discuss each topic to some depth. As a graduate student, you should be able to
expand on the definitions provided in the text and supplement with examples, commentary,
etc. ? in other words to demonstrate integrative and critical thinking.
Also please submit as ONE WORD FILE only. Put the honor code and all other items in the
same file. Please do not post image, pdf files, Microsoft Project, or two Word files. It is very
confusing when grading to figure out what is what with multiple files posted. Requests for
clarifications may be posted to the Final Exam section of the Questions and Answers.
Questions and Answers will be public so that no class member has an unfair advantage. Post
your response in your assignments folder.
Instructions: There are no formal page requirements. However, as a general rule of thumb, I
would expect to see, on average, at least two pages double spaced for question one and 3/4 page
for each for numbers three and four. More than that may be necessary but an eight to ten page
exam is the absolute maximum (not title page). On the other hand, be concise and do not
incorporate irrelevant material nor expand unnecessarily into the answers unless the content
directly builds your arguments. Develop the depth of critical thinking and support answers with
reasons and evidence but be logical and concise. Answers should present arguments using the
class materials, outside references, formulation and declarations of position statements, and
distillation of the primary and fundamental issues, discussing the various possible solutions to
the issues raised. Use of citations from a number of sources to support points with matching
references in APA format will increase your score. Remember that to list a reference, it must be
used in the text as a citation to avoid an APA violation and questions of academic integrity that
arise when it is unclear how references were used. In other words, use evidence and logic to
build arguments in answers which are well organized and structured to fully answer questions
per above.
1. Read the case study ?Maximum Megahertz Project? (Page 549 from:
Larson, E.W. & Gray, C.F. (2010). Project Management: The Managerial Process. Retrieved
from http://www.engr.sjsu.edu/fayad/current.courses/cmpe203-fall2013/docs/Articles/Project
%20Management%205th%20Edition.pdf.
(70 points for all parts.)
a) What do you think Olaf Gundersen, the CEO of Wireless Telecom Company should
do? Use what you know from the case and the course to build the arguments? (The
answer will not be graded based on right or wrong but how the arguments are
developed.)
b) What are some potential conflicts that could result from the steps in recommended in
a? How could you apply change management or conflict avoidance/resolution
techniques to avoid or resolve these? c) Based on what you have learned in this class, what could have been done so that the
project problems would have been avoided? (Of course, you do not have complete
information but use what is here and what you have learned is best practice in
managing projects.) (30 points)
d) Costs and deadlines of the projects escalated in the Maximum Megahertz project.
Why are accurate estimates critical to project management? What would you advise
Olaf about his problems with estimate? How to develop a process that would result
in more realistic estimates?
e) How should Olaf improve project management in his organization?
2. Go back to your discussion post for Week 10 (D?OH). Why did the mistakes you
identified occur and cause problems? How can these be resolved? (15 points)
3. Based on what you learned from the class, how do you access your abilities as a project
manager? What are your strengths? On what aspects do you need improvement? Do you
have an action plan to improve? What steps will or would you take to make these
improvements? (15 points)
