The Portfolio Project provides the choice of selecting one of two options. Altho

The Portfolio Project provides the choice of selecting one of two options. Although the subject content varies depending on the option selected, each Portfolio Project option is comprised of three sections:
Section 1: Principle Components Discussion
Describe the project management standards and processes based on the Project Management Institute’s A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge® (PMBOK® Guide) (6th ed.). This section should be approximately 5- to 6-pages and include a brief, yet substantive synopsis for each of the following items:
Project, Program, and Portfolio Management distinction
Project Selection
Project Charter
Additionally, develop a basic, 1- to 2-page Project Charter template based on the PMBOK® Guide (6th ed.) that could be used for small-to-medium projects in a global organization. Include your Project Charter template as an appendix in your essay paper.
Project Organization
Project Planning
Project Scheduling
Project Estimating
Monitoring and Control
Project Closure
The requirements for this section of the Portfolio Project are common for both Option 1 and Option 2. This Section will be completed via the Portfolio Milestone assignments.
Section 2: Simulation Analysis
Summarize your performance in the project management simulation completed in Module 6 (https://forio.com/simulate/harvard/project-management/simulation/#prepare) This section should be approximately 2- to 3-pages and must include:
Identification of three project management principles or practices applied during the simulation and their effect on your simulation outcomes.
Delineation of three lessons learned from the project management simulation that can be applied to future management of projects.
Recommendation for improving your simulation outcomes.
The subject content for Section 2 varies based on the Portfolio Project option selected:
For Option 1, the project management simulation requires an analysis of your performance of the Simulation Scenario A.
For Option 2, the project management simulation requires an analysis of your performance of the Simulation Scenario B.
Section 3: Case Study Analysis
Review and assess one of the two global project management case studies designated; then develop a 3- to 5-page recommendation for achieving the objectives set forth in the case study. As the main part of your recommendation, incorporate the following Project Management Plan components based on the PMBOK® Guide (high-level or sample):
Scope Statement
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
Project schedule or Gantt
Risk Register
Stakeholder Register
Communication Technology Description
Additionally, based on project team performance and leadership traits exhibited in the designated case study, identify the primary attributes needed to successfully lead this project scenario.
The case study for Section 3 varies depending on the Portfolio Project option selected:
use the Kemko Manufacturing case study (Kerzner, 2017, pp. 755-757).
