Weighted Decision Model

Page 6: Manage Your Health, Inc. (MYH) Part1

5 | P a g e

Weighted Decision Matrix for Manage Your Health, Inc.

The criteria for the Weighted Decision Matrix is Supports business strategies, Strong business

influence, Strong customer support, Level of technology resources required, Can be

implemented in one year, Provides positive NPV and Has low risk in meeting scope, time, and

cost goals.

Supports business strategies is how the project relates to the business strategic plan. A Strong

business influence is how much influence the project has on the business financially,

productivity, customers, suppliers and employees. Strong customer support is how much the

product will improve customer support and help gain more customers. Level of technology

resources required is the level of technology the project needs to be successful and how many

resources it needs and the cost of these resources. Can be implemented in one year is how long

will it take for the project to be completed and implemented. Provides positive NPV can be

described by the profit the company can gain from the project. Has low risk in meeting scope,

time, and cost goals is will the project be done in time in budget within scope with the lowest

risk.

Weighted Project Scores are about the importance of the criteria to the business. Business

strategies and a positive NPV are most important followed by the risk and customer support.

Influence and resource required are not important as above. The business would want the

project to be up and running as soon as possible but they don’t want it to be an big influence on

the project because they don’t want the project to be finished in a haste to prevent problems

and errors and to have the best quality of work.

Project 1, the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project, has the highest score mainly because it

strongly supports the business strategies it has a low risk in meeting time, scope and cost goals.

It also provides a positive NPV and can be implemented in one year. Project 2, the Health

Coverage Costs Business Model, has the lowest score because of the low influence and

customer support. This project is not recommended to be selected. It will also take longer than

a year to provide a positive NPV. Project 3, the Cross-Selling System, does support all of the

criteria almost equally, but not as required to the business. It does seem to help improve the

company, but not as much as the first project. Project 4, the Web-Enhanced Communications

System, would be the second best project to select. It has a strong customer support and a big

influence, also it strongly meets the business strategies. It risk is not too high but it does not

promise to provide a high NPV.

Project 1 is the best selection because it is the most promising project that will benefit the

company the most.

Business Case for Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project Date 02/04/2013

Prepared by: Lucas Olivier

1.0 Introduction/ Background Manage Your Health, Inc. (MYH) is a Fortune 500 company that provides a variety of health care services across the globe. MYH has more than 20,000 full-time employees and more than 5,000 part-time employees. The company believes they can improve employee health and save by negotiate lower health insurance premiums by implementing a Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project.

2.0 Business Objective MYH recently updated its strategic plan, and key goals include reducing internal costs, increasing cross-selling of products, and exploiting new Web-based technologies to help employees, customers and suppliers work together to improve the development and delivery of its health care products and services. The project Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project will help improve employee health within one year of its rollout so that the company can negotiate lower health insurance premiums, providing net savings of at least $30/employee/year for full-time employees over the next four years. 3.0 Current Situation and Problem/Opportunity Statement Manage Your Health, Inc. (MYH) is a company that provides a variety of health care services across the globe. A recent study found that MYH, Inc. pays 20% more than the industry average for employee health care premiums, primarily due to the poor health of its employees. The company has no health improvements for employees and it has an intranet that is used for communications, sharing, etc. There is an opportunity to provide an application on the current intranet to help employees improve their health. A recent study found that MYH, Inc. pays 20% more than the industry average for employee health care premiums, primarily due to the poor health of its employees. You believe that this application will help improve employee health within one year of its rollout so that you can negotiate lower health insurance premiums, providing net savings of at least $30/employee/year for full-time employees over the next four years. 4.0 Critical Assumption and Constraints The application must be a valuable asset for MYH, Inc. Current employees must actively support the project, and it must pay for itself within one year by improving employee health and to negotiate lower health insurance premiums. The project manager must lead the team through the project. The team must include participants from several parts of the company. The application must run on existing hardware and software, and it should require minimal technical suppo0rt. It must also be easily accessible by employees and management. It should be secure so that that the data about employee heath stay private.

Page 8: Manage Your Health, Inc. (MYH) Part1

5.0 Analysis of Option and Recommendation There are three options for addressing this opportunity:

1) Do nothing. The company is doing well, and we can continue without to start this project.

2) Purchase an already existing application that support this project capabilities. 3) Design and implement the application using mostly existing hardware and software.

Based on discussions with management, we believe that option 3 is the best option. 6.0 Preliminary Project Requirements This application would include the following capabilities:

Allow employees to register for company-sponsored recreational programs, such as soccer, softball, bowling, jogging, walking, and other sports.

Allow employees to register for company-sponsored classes and programs to help them manage their weight, reduce stress, stop smoking, and manage other health-related issues.

Track data on employee involvement in these recreational and health-management programs.

Offer incentives for people to join the programs and do well in them (e.g., incentives for achieving weight goals, winning sports team competitions, etc.)

7.0 Budget Estimate and Financial Analysis A preliminary estimate of costs for the entire project is $200,000. This estimate is based on the project manager working about 30 hours per week for six months and other internal staff working a total of about 60 hours per week for Six months. A staff project manager would earn $75 per hour. The hourly rate for the project team members would be $85 per hour. The initial cost estimate also includes $16,250 for purchasing software and services from suppliers. After the project is completed, maintenance costs of $50,000 are include for each year and costs for classes, incentives, activities, etc. of $100,000 are included for each year. Projected benefits are based on lower health insurance premiums, providing net savings of at least $30/employee/year for full-time employees over the next four years. That is a saving of $600,000 per year. Exhibit A summarizes lite projected costs and benefits and shows the estimated net present value (NPV), return on investment (ROI), and year in which payback occurs. It also list assumptions made in performing this preliminary financial analysis. All of the financial estimates are very encouraging. The estimated payback is within one year, as requested. The (NPV) is $

1,195,000 and the discounted ROI based on next four years are excellent at 180 percent. 8.0 Schedule Estimate The company would like to see the project completed within six months, but there is some flexibility in the schedule. We also assume that the project will be implemented permanently.

9.0 Potential Risks There are several risks involved with this project. The foremost risk is a lack of interest in the new application by the employees. Employee health is crucial for the project to able to negotiate lower health insurance premiums and realizing the potential benefits from participating. The main business risk is investing the time and money into this project and not realizing the project benefits.

Approach for Collecting Requirements for Recreation and

Wellness Intranet Project

We will start by having a simple brainstorming with the whole project team and some health

experts to get ideas what the project may require. After all the ideas are generated, the team

will prioritize the ones they think are the best for this solution. The resulting consensus of best

ideas will be used for the initial requirements.

After brainstorming we will hand out questionnaires to employees to get their opinion on what

they would like and want. After getting the questionnaires back, we will extract the data and

analyze it so we can prioritize the initial requirements.

We will then use group interviews with employees, project team and health experts to get a

better perspective on the requirements for the project. We can uncover a richer set of

requirements in a shorter period of time if we can keep the group focused.

Health experts can help with selecting classes, programs and activities, where employees can

help selecting what would mostly interest them in participating. The project team should

review the project charter since it includes high-level requirements for the project and may

refer to other documents that include requirements. They should also review the stakeholder

register to ensure that all key stakeholders have a say in determining requirements.

Since time is of the most importance we will keep it small and do it as fast as possible, we can’t

loss too much time on this.

Scope verification and change control

Scope verification

As this project progresses the Project Manager will verify project deliverables against the original scope as defined in the scope statement and WBS. Once the Project Manager verifies that the scope meets the requirements defined in the project plan, the Project Manager and Sponsor will meet for formal acceptance of the deliverable. During this meeting the Project Manager will present the deliverable to the Project Sponsor for formal acceptance. The Project Sponsor will accept the deliverable by signing a project deliverable acceptance document. This will ensure that project work remains within the scope of the project on a consistent basis throughout the life of the project. The Project Manager and the project team will work together to control of the scope of the

project. The project team will ensure that they perform only the work described in the WBS

and generate the defined deliverables for each WBS element. The Project Manager will

oversee the project team and the progression of the project to ensure that this scope control

process if followed.

Change control If a change to the project scope is needed the process for recommending changes to the scope

of the project must be carried out. Any project team member or sponsor can request changes

to the project scope. All change requests must be submitted to the Project Manager in the

form of a project change request document. The Project Manager will then review the

suggested change to the scope of the project. The Project Manager will then either deny the

change request if it does not apply to the project or hold a change control meeting between the

project team and Sponsor to review the change request further and perform an impact

assessment of the change. If the change request receives initial approval by the Project

Manager and Sponsor, the Project Manager will then formally submit the change request to the

Change Control Board.

If the Change Control Board approves the scope change the Project Sponsor will then formally

accept the change by signing the project change control document. Upon acceptance of the

scope change by the Change Control Board and Project Sponsor the Project Manager will

update all project documents and communicate the scope change to all project team members.

This is just to ensure that not just any changes can be made to the project and to ensure that everyone stays within the scope of the project.

Activities that can be added In the Collect requirements task the activity collect questioners can change to collect and extract data from questioners. This mean that not only should we collect the questioners, but after we collected them we should extract and analyze the data recovered from them. With this data we can more accurately prioritize the requirements needed. This activity can take up to five days because it is a large amount of data to process. After holding group interviews with employees and team member we can then review all the requirements we have gathered to determine the requirements that the project needs. This will be done in the activity determine requirements. This can take up to two days. Now that we have all the requirement we can then review the scope and WBS to finalize the documents with this new requirements that we found were important and should be added to the project. In the Company-sponsored Activities task were we determine where, what and how we are going to present classes to the employees, we will meet with health experts. We will get a good idea of what activities will be required to help the employees the best.
