LITERATURE REVIEW
1.0 INTRODUCTION
In today's world, project sustainability is more crucial than ever. Individual and
organisational accountability is required to guarantee that project outputs, results, and
benefits are sustainable throughout their life cycles, as well as throughout their development,
disposal, and decommissioning. Building sustainability into the project's concept from the
beginning. If it's built in as a critical criterion from the start, it can't be bargained or ignored.
This subject is becoming increasingly important to funders and organizations. When most
individuals think about sustainability, they solely think of environmental sustainability.
Project managers have a responsibility to ensure that their activity has a minimal impact on
long-term sustainability, or preferably a positive impact. For many project-based
organizations, sustainability is a difficult notion to control, such as climate change, soil
depletion, air pollution, and other environmental challenges.
Secondly, this project maintenance must also establish as sustainable lake by providing
sustainable solutions that improve water quality, enhance beauty and preserve natural.
Implementing a comprehensive maintenance approach that employs a variety of water quality
improvement strategies should be the major concern. The long-term result will be a more
balanced waterbody that requires fewer applications of herbicides and algaecides to maintain
it in a healthy and aesthetically pleasing state. While, the upgrades also will provide quality
education, such as increase scientific knowledge and develop research capacity for biological
education.

Thirdly, the project will also sustain in economic factor. The increases industry, innovation,
and infrastructure around the campus for community use. Developing quality infrastructure
will support economic development and human well-being, with a focus on affordable and
equitable access for all. Furthermore, helping grow affordable and clean energy means the
benefits of lakes provide water for irrigation and help to develop Hyde power as an
alternative energy source. When considering how to reduce water consumption, green
initiatives such as rainwater harvesting, and recycling can be considered. They will enhance
natural beauty and help in the development and provide recreation.

B. Project overview:
This Charter formally authorizes a project to commence for the concept design stage of the
Project Maintenance and services. A project plan will be developed and submitted to the
Project Owner for approval. Commencement of project activities will begin upon approval of
the project plan and the resources to execute it handed over by the Owner. Included in the
project plan are to be a scope statement; schedule; cost estimate; budget; and provisions for
scope, resource, schedule, communications, quality, risk, procurement, and stakeholder
management as well as project control.
1. Identification:
This Lake maintenance project is to remove sediment, restore lake to its original depth,
concrete spillway repairs and landscape maintenance.
2. Project Background:
The Marina is a beautiful public lake located next to Sultan Idris Education University's
Sports Arena in Proton City, Tanjong Malim, Perak, Malaysia. The depth of the natural lake
is not more than 2 meters deep and the length of the lake is 200 meters across. This project
translates to improved water quality in surrounding water bodies. Because of this, this project
has been identified as a high priority project.
The main goal is to improve the function of Marina Lake as a storm water treatment basin.
Other objectives are including to improve the appearance of the lake, looking after the
existing wildlife habitat and provide the most convenient lake for water activities for
university community and public. The goals must consider all of the site-specific
characteristics of the lake in order to develop a successful and environmentally
sustainable program. By implementing a comprehensive maintenance approach that employs
a variety of water quality improvement strategies, the long-term result will be a more
balanced waterbody that requires fewer applications of herbicides and algaecides to maintain
it in a healthy and aesthetically pleasing state.

3. Purpose/Business Need:
This project to be a nationwide environmental project providing sustainable solutions that
improve water quality, enhance beauty, preserve natural resources and reduce our
environmental footprint.
Much like a living organism, lakes and ponds are born and age. Many factors like nutrient
loading can affect the length of a waterbody’s existence, but the lifespan is ultimately
considered complete when sediment builds up to the point that it can no longer retain water.
While this is the eventual fate of every lake and pond, proactive dredging lake management
strategies like nutrient remediation, aeration, buffer management and hydro-raking can help
prolong the lifespan of the waterbody for many years. There are several targets of dredging
including:
Increase volume and depths to 30percent
Remove nutrient-heavy sediments
Eradicate deep-rooted plants and debris
Restore stormwater detention capacity and increase flow in channels
Dispose of contaminated sediment and wastewater
Reset the lifespan of a waterbody
There are several methods of sediment removal such as hydraulic dredging, clam
shell/backhoe dredging, and dry dredging. The chosen method will depend on a number of
factors including sediment composition, environmental sensitivity, volume of materials
removed, budget and disposal consideration.
4. Project Scope:
The boundaries of the project are limited to providing:
Mechanical services
Public health services (Clean, provide best facilities for healthy activities)
Renewable technology (Best solution to maintain the finished work)
5. Project Objectives:
In business terms, the project aims to:
Provide a new look of Marina Lake to attract university community and public.
Be a venue for co-curriculum activities, recreational park, water sport and as a
landmark.
Hold programs for schools and colleges.

1.0 Project Cost Management Introduction
Based on the project cost management (PCM) research, there are 2 major objectives
for mapping out and controlling the budgets. It enables the project manager to plan, estimate,
determine, and control the cost of management. All project expenses, mostly based on both
direct and indirect costs, are kept in one location using cost management plans. These
expenditures will be tracked by a project manager to guarantee that there are no budget
overruns.
A budget for a home renovation project is an example of a cost management strategy.
Hired labor and construction materials would be direct costs. Equipment rental fees,
insurance, and general upkeep are examples of indirect expenses. How do we implement the
plan's cost management? It was necessary to incorporate the understanding of the project cost
into control and account for the expenditure. There are a few major advantages that the
company can determine:
The project investment appraisal,
Controlling contractor costs and reporting good information to the principal or client
Success criteria are important to have good budget planning, forecasting, and
measurement of success or failure,
Reduce costs while increasing contingency planning.
10
1.1.2 Estimate Project Expenses
Once identified the work breakdown structure, the prediction of the project's costs is
necessary. Include both direct and indirect expenditures, eliminate waste, and set aside
money for unanticipated eventualities. In our project, we will categorise the construction
labor and materials as direct costs, and travel, equipment, and miscellaneous under indirect
costs.

Figure 1.0 shows the WBS with deliverable-based. For this project, the WBS was derived
from the project cost management that was prepared based on activities to be executed and
delivered in the project. From the WBS, we projected the duration and predecessors in the
schedule.

Critical Path Method (CPM)
The critical path method (CPM) is a technique to identify tasks that are necessary to complete
the project and to determine scheduling flexibilities. A critical path in a project is the longest
sequence of activities that must be completed on time to ensure the entire project to be
completed in time.
Float Determination
By using Microsoft Excel, we could do the critical path analysis for The Critical Path Method
to find critical activities:
1) Determine Early Start (ES) and Early Finish (EF) for each activity
Step 1: Activities with no Predecessor Activities (PA), Early Start (ES) = 0
Step 2: For all activities, Early Finish = Early Start + Duration (T=Time)
Step 3: Activities with one Predecessor Activity (PA), Early Start (ES) = Early Finish
Predecessor Activity
Step 4: Activities with more than one Predecessor Activity (PA), Early Start (ES)=
Max (Early Finish of all Predecessor Activities)
16
4) Calculate slack for each activity
5) Define critical activities and critical path

Network Diagram
A network diagram is a graphical connected arrows and boxes to present the inter-
relationship between the activities involved in the project. Boxes or nodes represent the
activity description, and arrows show the relationship among the activities. A network
diagram allows a project manager to track each element of a project and quickly share its
status with others. Its other benefits include:
The network diagram will be developed from the table of analysis derived from Critical Path
Method (Table 2.0) and schedule of activities (Table 1.0). There must be a start and finish to
each activity, and all the other activities fall within these parameters.

Organisational Structure
Introduction
Organizations can be defined as groups of people who must coordinate their activities in
order to meet organizational objectives. The coordination function requires strong
communications and a clear understanding of the relationships and interdependencies
among people (Harold Kerzner and Harold R. Kerzner ,2017). This quote shows that in
every company goal, there is a need of organization to achieve its assigned mission.
Responsibilities of each team member must be defined so that everyone in an organization
aware of their own responsibilities. Other than that, a clear communication and hierarchy
flow will be established automatically through organization chart.

Project Management Body of Knowledge
Introduction
Over the span of 2 years, a new the 7 th edition of PMBOK was introduced in 2021 to replace
the 6th edition (2016). Such effort was necessary to match the development of human society,
in which, in this topic, how to successfully manage and deliver high quality project. The
growth and acceptance of project management has changed significantly over the past forty
years, and these changes are expected to continue well into the twenty-first century,
especially in the area of multinational project management. Kerzner, H., & Kerzner, H. R.
(2013). The two principles that is going to be discussed in this essay is how to Effectively
Engage with Stakeholders and how to response to a possible risk. On the other hand, the 6 th
edition principles mainly explain about project management itself where it guides a project
from its initiation phase to handing over phase. Project Management Principles development
and changes which were introduced in the 7th edition are highly convenient specially during
this Coronavirus (COVID-19) endemic.
25
Principle 1 - Effectively Engage with Stakeholders
There has more stakeholder but for this project we choose, Sport Centre and Faculty Sport
Science and coaching University Pendidikan Sultan Idris as a stakeholder. The reason why
we choose principles stated above is that one of stakeholder which is End-User of every
project is always being left out in almost in every construction project by other stakeholder
while their input & opinion on finish product functionalities equally important during project
initiation, project planning & project execution. One of the reasons their involvement in a
project is not significant is they are the user of the finish product and not the funder of the
project. There can be a great risk await during Pre-Delivery Inspection if their opinion &
input taken lightly by the rest of the stakeholder.
26
Principle 1 - Optimize Risk Responses
Risks are addressed continually throughout the project. Project management team should
continually maximize positive impacts and minimize negative impact by evaluating the
exposure of risk attitude, appetite, and threshold influence how risk is addressed.
Risk responses should be:
• Appropriate for the significance of the risk,
• Cost effective,
• Realistic within the project context,
• Agreed to by relevant stakeholders, and
• Owned by a responsible person.
A risk is an unpredictable event or circumstance that posed several threats. Risk that
been identified may not or will happened but its highly encouraged to prepare a risk
mitigation plan. Project teams strive to maximise positive risks (opportunity) while
minimising negative risk exposure (threats). Threats can cause delays, cost overruns,
technological failures, performance shortfalls, and reputational damage. Benefits can include
decreased time and cost, improved performance, higher market share, and improved
reputation. The entire project risk should be identified and managed with highly efficient and
effective plan. During this Coronavirus (Covid-19) endemic or previously declared as
pandemic, almost every construction project is facing financial problem, or an issue related to
safety, health, and wellness of worker.
Furthermore, the star reported Malaysia had a total of 150 construction sites have
been ordered to close since June 1 for failing to follow standard operating procedures (SOP)
to curb the spread of Covid-19. The article is an example of a possible risk that may happen
during construction progress. This situation may or may not be happening, but this situation
certainly posed a threat to the project finance because payment from client will only be
released based on work progress. One of the ways that can be taken to prevent this situation is
that to comply with rules and regulation set by local authority by Malaysia Department of
occupational Safety and Health. In the guidelines, it has explained step to be taken for
prevent the spread of covid-19 virus. Other than that, to create awareness within the project
community. This can be done by doing toolbox talk once a week and erection of covid related
safety guidelines. Finally, to suit current situation, a new safety management plan shall be
27
developed. This is important because there might me standard procedure that is not suitable
during covid-19 pandemic.
As a conclusion, the new principles that was introduced in 7th edition brought
significant changes in the way to manage project. Its coverage has been broadened when it
included the principles for stake holder management because this shows that project
management is not only about the physical progress of a project but also for all related
stakeholders. Apart from that, the risk management planning as well has created awareness
on how to response to risk rather than just to plan for it. To simplify, 7 th edition PMBOK has
shown the world that Project management is on par with human mind evolution.
