Running head: PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 1 Project Implementation - Research on Obesity and Weight Management Lilisbet Alonso Florida National University Prof: Claudia Davis PhD, RN -BC July 6, 2020 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 2 Project implementation - Research on obesity and weight management Introduction The implementation phase of the research on obesity and weight management is essential. The problem which will be under investigation is obesity and weight management among individuals in the united states of America. Moreover, many people in the world are dying from overweight and obesity -related conditions, which include cancer, diabetes, hypertension, among many others (The health effects of overweight and obesity, 2020) . Hence, it has increased challenges facing the healthcare system since the hospitals are congested due to the inflow and admission of patients who are affected by overweight and obesity conditions. Consequently, the healthcare professionals, including the nurses, suffer from burnouts due to a large number of such patients to be attended t o. Therefore, implementation of the research on overweight and obesity conditions and the impact of overweight and obesity management programs will be beneficial to reduce such conditions among the populations in the United States of America. The execution s of the implementation phase of a research project are often the longest process. Hence, for an effective implementation process, there are management steps or processes such as cost, time, risks, change, and quality (Project executing processes, n.d.) . O ther management proces ses involved are customer acceptance, procurement, and communications. Time management Time management will involve the control and monitoring time within the Project. Hence, time management will involve the required time spent for every activity. For example, it involves the time, which the researchers will take to build the deliverables wi thin the Project (Project executing processes, n.d.) . Therefore, time management will enhance the assurance of completion of a PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 3 particular task within the required period. Hence, it will help in controlling the time spent on various activities within the re search project. There are important factors within the time management to be observed (Lima, Mesquita, & Fernandes, 2012) . For example, timesheets will be used to monitor the time spent by the researchers. Time management issues will be identified and reso lved. A process for recording time within the Project will be put in place ( 8. Planning and implementation, n.d.) . The project plan will be kept up to date, during al time of the entire project implementation process. The following is an example of a sched ule for the research project: Schedule Day Activity Participants Day one to day three Identification of statistical concepts, basic sampling theories, and exercises Researchers and statisticians Day four to day thirteen Data compilation, which will be used in case studies. Editing of the collected information, generating guidelines for the general quantitative and qualitative format, including the structure of the data collection. We are engaged in discussions concernin g data collection problems and field activities. Researchers, data collectors, and statisticians. PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 4 Day fourteen to day nineteen A computer system, which will operate with a database of reference tables, including samples of landings, frame surveys, and even the boat activities. Computation of the initial variance and estimates. Case studies and exercises with the actual data from the full scale or pilot surveys. Information system operators, statisticians, and researchers Day twenty to day twenty -five Exercise including case studies with the actual data from full -scale or pilot surveys. Reporting techniques. Researchers, statisticians, including other information system operators users. Cost management The process of cost management will help in mon itoring and even reporting all the project expenses , which are within the Project. The research team will record the costs, with the help of expense forms. The forms will then be reviewed and approved by the project managers, before the expense items, whic h will be purchased (Project executing processes, n.d.) . The process of cost management will ensure that the expenses for the Project are approved, especially before any purchasing is done, identify each of the initial costs within the Project, including k eeping a central record of all costs incurred and control the overall cost of the Project. Hence, it will generally help PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 5 in controlling the expenses in the course of the project implementation (8. Planning and implementation, n.d.) . Besides, it will ensure that only the approved purchases of expenses take place to ensure efficient use of project finances, hence prevent running out of finances. The following is the table showing the intended project activities’ cost: Costs Initial investment Recurring costs Pilot system design cost Analysis of the working practices and needs assessment Travel allowance and salaries for the data collectors, support staff, the supervisors, and the encoders. Acquisition of computing units, including software. Maintenance and support costs for all the equipment. Transportation, and vessels, and others items acquisition. Maintenance and operational costs Office equipment and materials acquisition, for preparation of the survey. Information dissemination, including preparat ion of reports and publications. Training on all levels to start the program Organization and running the workshops, including training programs for management of overweight and obesity conditions. PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 6 Quality management The quality management process will enhance the improvement of the quality of the project team members in the development of deliverables. Hence, quality management will help to boost the quality of deliverables and achieve total success. Consequently, it will enhance the fulfillment of essential factors such as setting quality targets to be met by the Project’s tea members, takes appropriate actions, which will be needed to measure the levels of quality, report on the overall quality achieved, and identify the quality improvements and issues. It is important to note that, through the quality management process, other activities such as quality assurance, quality control, quality improvement, and quality management can be undertaken (8. Planning and implemen tation, n.d.) . Hence, it will lead to efficient research on overweight and obesity among individuals and identify efficient management of such conditions. Change management The change management process will help in managing any forms of changes within the Project. Change management. This step will make it easier to easily monitor and control the amount of change, which takes place. Moreover, it will enhance the identificati on of requests for change, confirming each change’s feasibility, control how change is undertaken, and management of change approval (8. Planning and implementation, n.d.) . Hence, any forms of change will be managed effectively. Hence, it is not that the f orms of change will not be prevented from happening, but it is the management of change once it occurs, especially those that matter for the success of the Project. Risk management PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 7 The risk management process will help in engaging in steps, which are esse ntial in implementing risk management in the course of the Project. Consequently, it enhances meeting the objectives of the project, by mitigating any forms of risks, which may occur (Project executing processes, n.d.) . The risk management process will typ ically involve identification of the critical and non -critical risks, documentation of each risk through completion of the risk forms, logging all the risks in depth through completion of risk forms, taking actions to decrease the likelihood of occurrence of risk and reduction of the impact of risk on the project, in case the risk eventuates (8. Planning and implementation, n.d.) . Hence, through the risk management step, the risk will be identified, monitored, and controlled. Issue management The issue ma nagement step involves the identification and resolution of issues in the implementation phase of the Project. Hence through the issue management process, the issue will be easily be identified and resolved quickly before they cause any forms of impacts, w hich may be undesirable (8. Planning and implementation, n.d.) . The issue management process will enhance identification and recording of projects issues clearly, using the issue forms in proper issue documentation, determination of the impact of each issu e, prioritization of issues including reporting their actual status, reviewing the issues so that the course of actions can be decided, and taking appropriate steps to resolve the issues quickly. Procurement management The procurement step will help in the purchasing of goods, including services, particularly from the external suppliers. Hence, the procurement process provides a step -by -step way of purchasing from the appropriate suppliers (8. Planning and implementatio n, n.d.) . Moreover, it will make it PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 8 easier to identify the goods and services to be procured, complete the purchase orders and issue to the suppliers, agree on the delivery timeframes including methods, review and accept the items procured and approval of the payments of the suppliers (Lima, Mesquita, & Fernandes, 2012) . Therefore, the procurement step ensures the availability of items needed for the implementation of the Project. Acceptance management The acceptance process involves ensuring that the deliv erables produced by the Project’s team members meet the needs of the customers. Hence, during the acceptance process, the deliverables are reviewed by the research participants and formally accepted by them, incases the deliverables meet their needs (8. Pl anning and implementation, n.d.) . Therefore, the acceptance process will perform efficient user acceptance testing, user acceptance forms to document the initial results and communicate the acceptance testing results. Communications management The communi cation process will help in undertaking communication among the project team members. Hence, it will help in keeping the right people to be informed at the right time (Project executing processes, n.d.) . Therefore, the communication process will enhance th e identification of the messages to be sent to particular individuals, determine the target audience for communication, decide on the timing and format of the message, communicate the message through the communication events ad gather feedback, and even im prove the communication process. Phase review PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 9 It is the final step of the implementation phase. It will help in the documentation of the results of the project, especially at the end of the execution phase (Project executing processes, n.d.) . It will be co nducted to help measure the deliverables produced by the research project. Conclusion The research implementation will help generate management interventions for obesity and overweight among the United States populations. Hence, the research will help to reduce the number of side effect and complications which arise due to the conditions. Consequently, it will help improve the health of people through obesity and overweight management programs. PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION - RESEARCH ON OBESITY AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT 10 References 8.
