Introduction

Bounce Fitness is made up of four (4) fitness centres. Their head office is currently in Cairns, Queensland.
The other centres are in Brisbane, (Queensland), Sydney, (New South Wales) and Melbourne, (Victoria). It
is the intention of the Board of Directors that a new centre will be opened in Perth, (Western Australia).

It was established in 2001 by Margaret House as a single aerobic studio. After two years, membership
increases demanded the small, leased, centre be expanded and a new facility was built on land purchased
by the organisation. In 2004 a second centre was established in leased premises in Brisbane and then
Sydney and Melbourne in the subsequent two years.

The Head Office remains in Cairns and a Board of Directors has been established to oversee the function of
the business in all of the centres. Each centre has a Manager, who reports to the CEO in Cairns, and a team
of permanently employed fitness instructors and other casual instructors, all of whom report to the
Centre Manager.

The business is operated on best business practice and complies with all legislative requirements, local by-
laws and is registered with the national body.

Bounce Fitness intends to market its brand through excellence in service and expertise to establish itself
as a premier provider of fitness and wellness in Australia. Much time is invested in training the Centre staff
to upgrade their professional skills and customer service to foster a loyal member base. Classes are
innovative and varied with regular changes to routines and activities.

Bounce Fitness has developed choreographed fitness moves with accompanying music which is geared to
the varying interests, needs and goals of the member group. It is intended that all around Australia, gym,
and fitness centre members will continue to be enhancing personal performance through classes designed
and produced by this business.

Classes are coupled with state-of-the-art fitness equipment to cater to those who prefer resistance
training to aerobic workouts. Additional free weights allow for use by even die-hard lifters.

All centres are carpeted in areas used for stationary activities, spacious, well-ventilated, and air-
conditioned to make the environment as safe and comfortable as possible. They are light and feature
wrap-around mirrored walls. The decor was designed by a Brisbane firm and is updated every three years.
There are showers, toilets, lockers.

Each centre features a retail section selling fitness shoes, clothes, and other related fitness items. There is

5|Page
a small cafeteria which is leased to a provider who supplies healthy, low calorie drinks and light food.

Each Centre has regularly scheduled aerobic classes ranging from high intensity to low intensity. The
scheduling is left to each centre but must sustain a minimum average of twelve in each class for them to
continue to be held. The style of classes changes as new methods are developed to sustain interest and
provide variety.

Group circuit classes are also available. They involve rotation around the different resistance equipment as
instructed by the Instructor. The workout also includes interval aerobic exercises to enhance the value of
the workout.

Very low intensity classes are also held in age care facilities to keep residents active. The classes
incorporate light weights. This exercise contributes to the physical and mental health of participants as
well as providing variety in their day.

Special classes are held in high schools for senior students, sheltered workshops and other special
situations as requested and are operated as a community service, at minimal or no cost.

Funding is primarily from memberships. Memberships are sold on a one, three, six- and twelve-month
basis on a decreasing fee scale. Casual members are welcome, but the daily rate is a premium one.
Each centre sells memberships to 120% of their capacity. This means that at peak times it could be quite
crowded, but experience demonstrates that there is a maximum of 80% usage.

The retail arm of the business accounts for about 30% of the takings from each centre. The strategic plan
for retail is set to increase investment in sales this year to 35%. Each centre will be given a budget to
develop and implement a sales and marketing plan to trial. The most successful may be implemented
nationally and will attract an incentive for the most successful centre.

The catering facilities, which produce 5% of the income, less any rent off-set, are currently leased to
private operators. This is reconsidered during each annual planning session by the Board.
The Board of Directors have come up with some business objectives and Key Performance Indicators for
the next 12 months for each of the centres. You are the Centre Manager for the Sydney Centre and are
also required to meet the business objectives as per below:
 Generate a 10% yearly increase in sales
 Increase market penetration every quarter
 Continue to cultivate Bounce Fitness’s image as the premier long-term wellness program
provider
 Decrease customer acquisition costs by 4% every two quarters
 Lower the cost of service delivery by 1% a quarter
 Holding spending, as a percentage of sales at a steady rate.
To meet the business objectives, it was decided to open a coffee shop at the Fitness Centre to generate
more customers to the centre. The idea is also to have a hub where clients can also socialise after their
sessions and be able to have healthy snacks and meals.

You as the Centre Manager are responsible for the above project for your Fitness Centre.

10. Refer to the previous Risk Assessment Plan that you conducted in Question 4 and review the risk
assessment plan to ensure that the project outcomes are met. Once you have reviewed the risk
assessment plan and the outcomes, you are required to write a report to your CEO and Board of
Directors. You must address the following key points:
a) include a review of the risk management plan
b) advise them of the progress of the project
c) if the project deliverables have been achieved
(Approx. 150 words)
This report is established to review the risk management plans that are based from the project plan to be
read to the CEO and Board of Directors. This report is written as result that the outcomes that are expected
from the project have been met. This project also has been written as a response towards the situation of the
project especially on the risk management plan.
For the staff that are freshly recruited and stations at the coffee shop, they are now undergoing training while
doing a practical experience at coffee shop and although the speed of service has not reached the satisfactory
results yet, they are improving and are expect to meet the targeted quality by the end of the next month.
As part of the closing statement, the project was a success since the expected deliverables are achieved. The
deviances of the tasks are still within the timeline of the project and the budget are spent wisely despite some
errors from certain budgeting inputs that will be included in the detailed budgeting team project report. The
project can not be finished without the full cooperation from the team, center management, stakeholders,
contractors and organisation.

Review of the Risk Management Plan


Objectives
For the budgeting plan of the project plan, the rise in coffee beans price is entirely unexpected. It
was identified by the financial controller. This could happen from time to time, but the lesson is
always expect to unexpected since this is something that is overlooked.
Risk Management Process
From the field of the overall project plan, the execution, risk management process and budgeting for
the project are a mix of new and old experience even after doing quite a few number of projects
over the years.

Closing out a project includes daunting number of tasks. In the past and on small projects the projects
manager was responsible for seeing all tasks and loose ends were completed and signed off. This is no
longer true. In todays project driven organisation’s that have many project occurring simultaneously,
the responsibility for completing closure tasks has been parsed among the project manager, project
team, project office, an oversight “Review committee”, and an independent project review facilitator.
Many tasks overlap, occur simultaneously, and require coordination and cooperation among these
stakeholders. The three major deliverables for the project closure are described below.

1. Wrapping up the project. The major wrap up task is to ensure the project is approved and
accepted by the customer. Other wrap up activities include closing accounts, paying bills,
reassigning equipment and personnel, finding new opportunities for project staff, closing
facilities, and the final report. Checklist are used extensively to ensure tasks are not overlooked,
In many organisations, the lion’s share of closure tasks are largely done by the projects office in
coordination with the project manager. The final report writing is usually assigned to one
project office staff member, who assemble input from all stakeholders. In smaller organisations
and projects, these closure activities are left to the project manager and team.
2. Evaluation of performance and management of the project. Evaluation includes team,
individual team members, and project manager performance. Vendors and customer may
provide external input, Evaluation of the major players provides important information for the
future.
3. Project Reviews. Reviews of lessons learned are designed to improve performance on current
and future project. Today, most reviews are the responsibility of an independent facilitator. The
post project reviews should be held with the team to catch any missing issues or gaps. The
chapter begins with the recognition that projects are shut down for many reasons. Not all
projects end with a clear “finished” and are turned over to a customer. Regardless of the
conditions for ending a project, the general process of closure is similar. Wrap up closure tasks
are noted first. Evaluation of the project performance is next. Finally, lessons learned or project
reviews are examined in detail.
