Case Study Description
Question A3 (10 marks) a. An important outcome of the planning stage is to have a clear understanding of the roles that each staff member plays in the process of completing each element of the WBS (Work Breakdown Structure). From your experience in Project 1 with your team members, draw a WBS linear responsibility chart to show distribution of task for development of overall modules of CCTU Travel and Tour case study. (4 marks) b. Similar to Gantt charts, network diagrams are also graphical representations of logical flow between tasks, describe task durations, and need the same three basic parameters: Tasks, Tasks durations, and Predecessors and successors. Based on Table 1, draw an Active-on-nodes Network diagram and calculate expected times computed from every path discovered and determine which path is the critical path. 8 8 5 Table 1 Outline Time(days) Minimum Most Maximum Immediate likely Processors 1.1 Conduct 2 2 8 None Interviews 1.2 Administer 2 3 1.1 Questionnaires 1.3 Read 2 3 None Company Reports 1.4 Analyse 3 7 15 1.2, 1.3 data flow 1.5 Introduce 3 5 8 1.2, 1.3 prototype 1.6 Observe 1 2 9 1.5 reactions to prototypes 1.7 Perform 1 2 9 1.4 cost benefit analysis 1.8 Prepare 2 2 8 1.6, 1.7 proposal 1.9 Final 2 2 8 1.8 review on proposal 1.10 Present 2 2 8 1.9 Proposal CC2U is a coach company resides in Johor Bahru. They specialize in organizing day trips to various destination in Malaysia. They are expanding their business to offer more adventure based services such as hiking, mountain climbing, trekking, All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) riding and also cycling. CC2U customers ranges from institutions such as schools, universities, private companies and individuals who wants to organize or participate in adventurous escapade during holidays.

Meanwhile the customer can make payment to the travel agency through Credit Card Purchase. In order to check the validity of the credit card, and sufficient funds available, the system will receive the credit card transaction and also retrieve the customer Profile. If the credit card is not valid, then the system will require the correct credit card and if the credit card is valid but does not have sufficient funds available, it will request the customer to provide an alternate credit card. Then, if everything went fine, the system will fulfill the reservation and update the vacation package inside the system plus sending the customer an email of confirmation.

Due to the availability of the guides, the activities have to be scheduled carefully and all related committees such as the local authorities, national parks have to be informed to the programs being managed and also if there are announcements on changes of the standard operating procedures (SOP) for entering the identified place. Due to the availability of guides and also the challenge of planning the tour especially for trekking, hiking and mountaineering, CC2U has provided a restricted rules specifically for the cancellation of these types of tours.
