Assignment Instructions
There will be two parts to this assignment.

In Part 1 of the assignment, you will use the project WBS and schedule for your chosen project and create cost estimates for the work packages. Review each work activity and determine the labor, equipment, fees, or other cost requirements. Labor costs can be a flat fee or an hourly rate. It is possible to have labor, equipment, fees, or other cost requirements for each activity or no costs depending on the activity. Use the attached template to identify costs, then summarize by work package and total for the project.
Part 2:

Project managers need to manage the information created by the project and disseminate it to the project′s primary stakeholders.
