Initiation Phase
Describe
Reasons for project to take place
Project estimations

techniques
Risk analysis and
identification
Financial support

Limited capacity
Six Reasons for a project to take place
Business needs
Market demands
Customer requests
Legal requirements
Technological advances
Social need
PROJECT ESTIMATIONS
Conceptual Estimate – Best Guess!!!
Page 58 example
Definitive Estimate – Meat on the bone!!!
More research

PROJECT SELECTION TECHNIQUES - FINANCIAL
Financial selection methods probably most important selection technique.
We will look at three techniques:-
PAYBACK PERIOD
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
NET PRESENT VALUE
FINANCIAL SELECTION TECHNIQUES
METHOD OUTCOME UNIT OF
MEASUREMENT
Payback Period Measures time taken to
breakeven
Years and months
Return on Investment
(ROI)
Measures rate at which
investment grows
Percentage
Net Present Value (NPV) Measures overall
present day value of
present day and future
cashflows
Rand
Internal Rate of Return
(IRR)
Growth rate at which
NPV is equal to zero
Percentage

CALCULATION OF PAYBACK TIME
Just year is not sufficient, need to calculate number of months as well
PAYBACK MONTH = OUTSTANDING BALANCE FOR PAYBACK YEAR X 12
REVENUE FOR PAYBAK YEAR
THIS FORMULA IS IMPORTANT: REMEMBER IT!!!!!

PROJECT A
Step 1
Total Yearly returns
Step 2
Total Profit/Loss = yearly
returns – initial
investment
Step 3
Calculate average profit
= Total profit/ no years
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Measures the rate of growth of an investment
ROI = AVERAGE PROFIT X 100
INITIAL INVESTMENT
ROI “A” = 17500 X 100
50000
= 35%
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Now calculate the Return on Investment for projects B, C & D

NET PRESENT VALUE
Takes time value of money into consideration
INVEST TODAY GENERATE ONE YEAR
R100000 R105000 X
INTEREST RATE IS 9% SO WOULD NEED A MINIMUM OF
R109000 TO BREAKEVEN!!!
NET PRESENT VALUE
MEASURES VALUE OF INVESTMENT IN RAND
ONLY CONSIDER PROJECTS WITH A NPV GREATER THAN 0
NEED A DISCOUNT FACTOR – PROJECT MANAGERS HAVE TO IDENTIFY THIS FOR
THEIR PROJECT
IN EXAM THIS FIGURE WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU
Discount factor

i = the interest rate
n = number of years
EXAMPLE
Interest rate = 9%
• Convert this to a decimal fraction
by dividing by 100 = 0.09
• Year 1 = 𝟏
𝟏+𝟎.𝟎𝟗 𝟏 = 0.917
• Year 2 = 𝟏
𝟏+𝟎.𝟎𝟗 𝟐 = 0.842
• Year 3 = 𝟏

TYPICALLY WE WOULD SELECT PROJECT WITH LOWEST PAYBACK TIME,
HIGHEST ROI, HIGHEST NPV
INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN
The rate at which the NPV is equal to zero.
The project with the highest IIR should be selected
You are not required to perform IIR calculations for
this course
NON – FINANCIAL SELECTION TECHNIQUES
Four non-financial techniques:-
Production considerations
Marketing considerations
Personnel considerations
Administration and other considerations
WEIGHTED SCORING MODELS
Weight between 0 and 1
The more important the criteria the higher the
weighting
The total of the weights must add up to 1
Compile a scoring matrix for each of listed criteria
Calculate a score per category and an overall score
Different catergories can then be compared on an
equal basis

TYPICALLY WE WOULD SELECT PROJECT WITH LOWEST PAYBACK TIME,
HIGHEST ROI, HIGHEST NPV, HIGHEST WEIGHTED SCORE
FEASIBILITY
• Identification and analysis of risk
• Completed estimates may look promising but it is possible that
the project selection team may require a FEASIBILITY STUDY
• Must eliminate bias from feasibility study so research team
should be separate to project team
• Project team may have pre-conceived ideas that would influence
the research
• Feasibility study should give a lot more accurate estimates than
conceptual estimate
INTRODUCTION TO RISK MANAGEMENT
• Will be looking at risk management in detail in LU3
• Risks are negative events that can happen in the future
• Cannot predict future with 100% accuracy
• Can assume that past events will often repeat themselves
(remember Titanic video!!)
• If events occurred often in the past it is reasonable to assume
they will happen again in the future
• If event very negative (Olympia vs Titanic) Project Manager
should carefully consider appropriate actions
STAKEHOLDER ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT
WHAT IS A STAKEHOLDER?
“….people or organisations with vested interests
in your project, who can either gain or lose as
a result of your operations” (Heldman, 2005)
EXAMPLES OF STAKEHOLDERS
Project sponsor
Client
Government
Employees
STAKEHOLDERS
PROJECT
ORGANISATION
COMPETITION
EMPLOYEES
ENVIRONMENTAL
GROUPS SOCIETY
CLIENT
GOVERNMENT
STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT
Stakeholders (of all types) must be managed!
Group Activity
Read case study on pages 73/74 of manual
STAKEHOLDER CONFLICT
• Stakeholders usually have different expectations
• Managing these expectations is stressful
• “You can please some of the people all of the time, all
of the people some of the time, but not all of the
people all of the time”
CONSTRAINTS
• Internal constraints – limitations from within the
company and project e.g. behaviour of project team.
Project Manager should have control over these
constraints.
• External constraints – limitations from outside e.g.
actions of environmental groups, supplier delivery
schedules. Project Managers have little control over
these constraints
COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS
A weighting scale approach to decision-making
where the disadvantages are listed on one side
of the balance and disadvantages on the other
See example p75
PROBLEMS WITH COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
• Cannot quantify intangible benefits
• Costs can be calculated with a degree of
accuracy
• Scales may therefore be unfairly tipped to
costs
OBTAINING FINANCE
• CORPORATE FINANCE – suitable for projects with
financing needs less than R250 million
• Relatively quick to obtain and is suitable for
organisations that have a good financial position
• PROJECT FINANCE –involves investments by a series
of partners e.g. Government, investment houses.
• Can be lengthy to obtain much larger amounts can be
borrowed than with corporate finance
PROJECT CHARTER
• Official initiating document
• Formally recognises projects existence
• Authorises Project Manager to proceed with project
• Makes resources available to project
• Co-ordinates stakeholders inputs
• Provides detailed overview of project requirements
SEE TEMPLATE ON P77
INITIAL MEETING
• Usually between Project Manager, the client and
sometimes the sponsor
