Purpose of the Project Initiation Document
As a trainee project manager for the development of a budget proposal for a
suite of subject-specific computer rooms at a further education college, it is
essential to understand the current state of the classrooms, the necessary IT
devices needed, and the new plan and structure for the classrooms. I have
looked at various types of equipment and related expenses that the college
is considering buying for the project. I have looked over the sizes and costs
of the whiteboards that are for sale. I also plan to research the types and
prices of chairs and tables that the college might want to purchase. Students
will use these chairs and tables while they participate in hands-on learning
activities in the middle of the classroom.
The classroom's physical layout includes standard desks and chairs, space,
lighting and ventilation systems, and basic overhead lighting and ventilation
systems.
The present IT infrastructure includes older desktop computers, basic wired
network infrastructure with limited Wi-Fi coverage, peripheral devices such
as printers, projectors, and possibly outdated whiteboards, and standard
educational software. To enhance the classroom, the project will include
high-performance computers, monitors, servers, networking equipment,
interactive whiteboards/Smart Boards, printers and scanners, audio-visual
equipment, Learning Management Systems (LMS), and security software.
The research on the new plan and structure of the classroom will focus on
collaborative learning spaces and appropriate learning environments. Design
considerations include ergonomics, flexible layouts, sufficient power outlets,
and adequate storage for the pc. These steps need assessment, space
planning, budgeting, vendor selection, pilot testing, training, and
maintenance and support.
Research for project:
Materials/Secondary research findings
The proposed budget for the IT classroom is 471,450. £220,000 for IT
classrooms, including high-performance computers, networking equipment,
interactive whiteboards, printers and scanners, audio-visual equipment,
software licenses, furniture and fixtures, cabling and installation, and a
