Question

Problem Case Summary Wilmont's is a top-ranked US retail pharmacy with more than 8,000 stores nationwide. The company is secretly considering delivering prescriptions by flying drone. Drone Tech, a small firm in San Francisco, CA announced the approach in March, and Wilmont's has made an agreement with DroneTech to prototype this project in the San Francisco area. Drone Tech will provide the drone technology as well as the drone piloting and delivery systems, but will customize its systems and business process to conform to Wilmont's requirements. You are the project manager assigned to lead this project. (Depending upon the course domain, the case positions the student as the project manager in either Wilmont's IT, Wilmont's Pharmacy Operations, or Drone Tech Engineering.) | Wilmont's has limited the project expenditures to a maximum of US$1,750,000 for this prototype project and will implement it first in only four stores. The project begins next January 5 and the first customer delivery flight should take place no later than November 30 to avoid harsh weather in the San Francisco area. You will need to plan tasks and assign team members to them from a list of people involved in the project. Regular meetings need to be held with the team and stakeholders as well as other forms of communication. Approval points are needed through the project sequence. Risks, testing, quality control and provision issues may develop. Issues in security, reliability, integrity, interfaces between the systems of the two organizations and customer interaction are all considerations that must be made as you plan the project. | User training and other preparations will be required for system implementation. The Wilmont's Change Management Team will assist you in this effort Final schedules need to show a certain level of completion based upon a given date.
