Hakanson <br />lip Anderson <br />SECTION 3 <br />PROJECT APPROACH <br />Project Approach <br />The true measure of an effective approach to managing tasks is the ability to deliver the expected results on time and <br />within budget. We at Hakanson Anderson are accountable for our work and obligations. Our project approach and work <br />plan for this project is based on our thorough understanding of the project and is focused around providing a strong, <br />experienced team. It is our goal to exceed the City's expectations in all aspects of the project. Major elements required to <br />successfully complete the project within the time frames allowed include the following: <br />• Coordinating a Public Process <br />• Project Management Plan <br />• Development of Detailed Plans <br />• Highly Skilled and Organized Team <br />A brief description of these major elements are as follows: <br />COORDINATING A PUBLIC PROCES <br />Coordinating a public process requires excellent communication skills, a thorough understanding of the project, and a <br />thorough understanding of the clients' goals and policies. Further, the ability to adapt and respond to situations when or <br />if misinformation is presented is crucial. There is no single factor that is more damaging to a project than misinformation, <br />and if it is presented, it must be dealt with immediately in a professional manner. In order to be successful and gain the <br />trust of the project stakeholders, the facilitator must present accurate information and have the skills to communicate the <br />benefits of the proposed improvements. Further, it is crucial that the design team listen to public comment, evaluate it for <br />merit, and openly discuss the decision making process. Our experience has shown us that stakeholders all lend different <br />points of view to various aspects of the project and those points of view must be considered. When project stakeholders <br />are treated with respect, they typically return the favor. <br />PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN <br />It is our company policy to create a Project Management Plan at the beginning of every project to ensure that all project <br />goals and objectives are met. The Project Management Plan will further identify each team member's specific role in the <br />proposed project and the deadline for each specific task so all major steps in the critical path are completed within the <br />time frame that is necessary to deliver the project within the time that is allotted. <br />PROJECT APPROACH 6 <br />
