Running Head: STRATEGIC OUTSOURCING Case Study 2 Xavier Aldea Dr. Johnson 1 2 STRATEGIC OUTSOURCING Strategic Outsourcing Introduction Outsourcing...

This will be a 7 week assignment! Everything must be grammatically correct and original. I will post a new assignment weekly for 7 weeks. This week I need a proposal for the RMP. I have attached the case study I'd like to base this project on. If you're taking this assignment I will be needing you for the next 7 weeks.

For this course, you will complete several weekly assignments and compile a Course Project paper. This paper involves the development of a risk management plan, commonly called an RMP, throughout the course.

While the weekly assignments are the basis for what you will be doing for the RMP, they are not the RMP itself. Your weekly assignments will assist you in the development of an RMP by completing some of the essential parts of the final paper. These various sections, which will follow your weekly assignments, have been developed according to the Deliverables schedule below.

Remember that your weekly assignments are built around the project that you will choose during Week 1.

The assignments for Weeks 1-6 are the basis of your project; the final paper, however, which is due in Week 7, will be built following the template on page 209 in Appendix A within the Practical Project Risk Management: The ATOM Methodology text. In addition, your final paper will focus on the top 20 risks you have identified.

Week 1: Selecting a Project

During Week 1, you will select a project for your risk management plan Course Project. The project can be one that you are working on as part of your regular job, a case study you have completed in the past, or a project that you want to plan, either business or personal. You will choose your project so that you will be very familiar with it and understand its various elements. The project request will be submitted as a graded assignment.

To select your project, submit a description of it using the Week 1 Course Project Proposal & Outline Template (PROJ420_W1_ProposalAndOutline.docx) in Doc Sharing.

Submit your assignment to the Week 1 Course Project Dropbox, located at the top of this page. For instructions on how to use the Dropbox, read these step-by-step instructions.

You will receive a post in your Dropbox that will indicate approval to proceed.

This submission must be well presented because this is a required assignment that will receive a grade in Gradebook. The project paper is a required item for successful completion of this class. If you do not submit a project selection, you will not be able to proceed with assignments, because each week builds upon the last. We will discuss the various steps in developing the RMP for your project in our weekly discussions. All submissions for a grade will also be evaluated for grammar and spelling.
