Potential Project Analysis
In our Module 4 lecture you identified the significance of effective analysis prior to project implementation and the impact this analysis has on the organization’s project success. In this assignment you will demonstrate knowledge and demonstration of both the SWOT Analysis and the supplemental Force Field Analysis.
Consider the following scenario: “Thank you for coming today. We are considering opening a satellite facility ten miles from our current facility location. As you know, a satellite clinic offer many opportunities for our organization, but also presents new challenges. As Director of Operations, I would like to you to seek feedback from the rest of the leadership team, and then complete both a SWOT analysis and a Force Field Analysis to determine which services would best benefit the new satellite clinic and customers. Once you have finished your analysis, report back to me in with a presentation according to the parameters I have specified.
“Antonio Johnson, Director of Clinical Operations
“Happy to share some thoughts from the clinical staff. We would need to assess alignment with our current staffing policies, tying everything in with our hospital HR operations and potential future staffing needs. Another consideration is supply chain management.
In our initial review we determined that we would need to hire four medical doctors, six registered nurses, three receptionists, three environmental professionals, and three supply personnel. The addition of new personnel would add 650k to the budget. The budget will encompass mostly payroll and operational expenses. We would need an additional 85k for supplies.”
Robert Clemmens, Director of Facilities
“I second your concern Antonio. We would also need to investigate maintenance staffing, as well as supply storage space, facilities safety and security for a new construction. Initial estimates indicate five facility engineers and two safety officers would be advisable. More research on items such as fire suppressions systems that should be considered as we move forward.
”Matthew Marshall, Director of Information Management
“Initially, we need to consider equipment, software and systems implementation. With the new clinic being nearby, our team can handle most of the background work. We would need additional IT staff in the future to manage the clinic operations, particularly in quality assurance as well as a health information management team. Let me know what else you need from me; I would be happy to consult further on your force field analysis.”
