2 FEASIBLE PROJECT TEAM
2.1 Human Resources Identification
In the case of this project, construction method that is feasible and one that has been decided
up on refers to the mixed form of construction, that is, cast-in-situ as well as pre-fabrication.
The method of development has been chiefly divided as three different stages as well as later
in the form of subdivisions where the same is necessary (Kerzner, 2017; Meredith et al., 2017;
Heagney, 2016).
In addition, for the actual construction work, this project shall hire an external contractor
using suitable tender process on the basis of fixed cost lump sum contract wherein the
6
selected contractor shall deliver the complete construction on the agreed price that shall be
decided during the tender process (Kerzner, 2017; Meredith et al., 2017; Heagney, 2016).
Hence, the project team shall be limited to the project manager, team members, and other
consultants to aid in the project management and controls, and the overall construction shall
be delivered by the hired contractor who shall employ relevant construction crew to deliver
the project.
In this context, the human resource team can be listed as follows –
Project Management, Design and Construction Control:
 Project Sponsor (Client)- Giulette
 Project Manager-Talha Aejaz Ahmed
 Team Member #1-Subhash
 Team Member #2_Manish
 External Consultant #1
 External Consultant #2
 Construction Activity:
 Hired Contractor along with the Contractor’s construction crew
2.2 Resource Planning
The resource planning is aligned to the construction method & delivery method identified: [1]
mixed form of construction, that is, cast-in-situ as well as pre-fabrication and this method of
development has been chiefly divided as three different stages as well as later in the form of
subdivisions where the same is necessary, and [2] hiring external contractor using suitable
tender process on the basis of fixed cost lump sum contract wherein the selected contractor
shall deliver the complete construction on the agreed price that shall be decided during the
tender process.
In this context, the procurements and construction personnel shall be under the responsibility
of the Contractor with the contract signed with the project team on a fixed cost basis. The
same is detailed as follows –

3 PROJECT MATERIAL PROCUREMENT
The method of material procurement for construction includes the selection, order, billing,
payment and delivery of the material necessary to building to the site. A product, equipment,
materials and subcontractors procurement task can be carried out by a procurements team
or by one or more construction suppliers. The main contractor of the project works usually to
ensure the procurement of materials is given in accordance with the project plan,
requirement and budget.
Materials are typically acquired from the supply chain, often from reputable distributors with
which the team has previously done service or which can be specified in the contract
documents. Procurement of materials is an important part of construction process, as
supplier’s demands for materials and resources would usually be overcome by contractors.
In the same way, for this THAMP project the suppliers were selected with which we are
worked before and we also considered the supplier with best quality and rates of the
materials. Material suppliers were selected from a list of the product and service to be
obtained licenced suppliers. Suppliers should be selected based on competitive bidding,
where their most favourable price for the item.
The given plan Case project T1- 2020, shows the materials required for project in detail. Below
tables shows the permanent and temporary materials required for the THAMP project. And
also the suppliers selected through bidding are given in the BOQ table:
Table 3: Permanent materials required for THAMP project

In every construction site no matter how large the project is a variety of necessary temporary
facilities must be identified before the construction can begin on each building site. In
addition to having facilities for builders to use heavy machinery and equipment, temporary
solutions should also be provided so that any on-site contractor may use them, as well as
toilets and washrooms. And also during the construction works like footing some temporary
materials are required for the formwork. The temporary materials required for THAMP
project is given in the table below:
Table 4: Temporary material required for THAMP project

The average market value of the materials are considered, to estimate the permanent and
temporary materials cost for THAMP project. Also the 5% of Building cost is assumed for the
wastage of materials. So, from this average costs and wastage the material costs for the
THAMP project will be 20% of total building cost.
15
4 PROJECT FINANCIAL RESOURCES
To estimate the total building costs for the THAMP project parametric estimating is used. In
this parametric estimation the total building cost will be calculated from the given formulae.
Total building cost of the THAMP project = Gross floor area * Average cost
The GFA is taken from the project plan (Case project T1-2020). Then using the Rawlinson’s
Construction Handbook 2019, the weightage of each and every stage of the THAMP project
is considered. To calculate the total cost of each stage, the weightage of that stage of total
building cost.
From the Parametric estimation Total Building cost for the THAMP project is 370,322 AUD.
The material suppliers were selected based on their price for materials and their services. The
parametric estimation of THAMP project is given in below table:

The additional charges like contingencies and professional fee are assumed as 5% and 10% of
Building costs. After including the additional charges the total THAMP project cost is
425,870.30 AUD. The project is financed by the bank loan for 70% of the total estimated
project cost.
5 TIME FRAME
In THAMP project, management of time plays a key role for the successful competition of the
project. Generally, project schedule is prepared which comprises of various tasks and their
duration. Basically the construction of THAMP Project is divided into preliminaries, sub
structure and super structure. Under Preliminaries, all the basic requirements for the project
are accomplished. The permits required and the paperwork is done in this stage. The site is
prepared by installing the fences around the site and the required amenities at the site. In
substructure stage excavations, footing and slab are done. In superstructure stage the
construction of the whole building is done and all the finishing’s and fitments are installed.
The superstructure involves construction of columns, beams, roofs, walls and doors.
Simultaneously the essentials services plumbing and electrical are installed. The finishing’s of
wall and floor are done. Then the interior and landscaping is done for good view of the
project.
There are various methods for scheduling of the project namely PERT and Critical path
method.
 Gantt chart is used to demonstrate activities and resources and explains the project
schedule.
 Time management can be easily explained with the use of Gantt chart and
progress of the project can be obtained whenever required.
19
 The team engaged in our project should be made aware and familiar with their
roles and responsibilities and how much time would be required to carry out the
specific task.

6 COST AND RESOURCES PROCUREMENT
Project cost stays integrated with facilitating project implementations along with managing
and facilitating areas of project need margin. Facilitating the project cost helps in analyzing
areas of project work along with managing the successful implementation of the process of
project work. On the other hand, project cost also is seen to be helpful in identifying the
amount that can be invested in managing each activity of the entire project. The procurement
of the resources will be done in this project by signing a contract between the contractors
and the project management. The procurement of the resources will be done in the most
sustainable manner. The signed contract will be a proof that the work will be finished at the

22
desired time. It will also be ensured that there are backup suppliers that can be contacted in
case of any unforeseen circumstances. The entire project will be done in a lean way and hence
during the procurement, the products will only be taken when they are needed. The resources
procurement will be planned on a day to day basis so that there are no extra resources that
get delivered to the site.
7 CONCLUSION
This report presented a detailed discussion on human resource related aspects of undertaking
this project along with detailed planning and proposals. This report provides the clear idea of
the permanent and temporary materials used for the THAMP project. The parametric
estimation is used to estimate the project budget and also the time frame of the THAMP
project is described.
