INTRODUCTION

Projects have a major role to play in the economic


development of a country. Since the introduction of planning
in our economy, we have been investing large amount of
money in projects related to industry, minerals, power,
transportation, irrigation, education etc. with a view to
improve the socio-economic conditions of the people. These
projects are designed with the aim of efficient management,
earning adequate return to provide for future development
with their own resources. But experience shows that there are
several shortcomings in the ultimate success of achieving the
objectives of the proposed project.

Gillinger defines “project” as the whole complex of activities involved in
using resources to gain benefits

Definitions of ‘project’. Newman et. al define that “a project typically


has a distinct mission that it is designed to achieve and a clear
termination point the achievement of the mission”.

What is a Project?

• PMI Definition
– A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique
product, service, or result.

– The temporary nature of projects indicates that a project has a definite


beginning and end.

– The end is reached when the project’s objectives have been achieved
or when the project is terminated because its objectives will not or
cannot be met, or when the need for the project no longer exists.

Idea Generation
Project selection process starts with the generation of a project idea.
Ideas are based on technological breakthroughs and most of the
project ideas are variants of present products or services. To stimulate
the flow of ideas, the following are helpful:
SWOT Analysis
SWOT is an acronym for strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
SWOT analysis represents conscious, deliberate and systematic effort by an
organization to identify opportunities that can be profitably exploited by it.
Periodic SWOT analysis facilitates the generation of ideas.
Operational objectives of a firm may be one or more of the following.
• Cost reduction.
• Productivity improvement.
• Increase in capacity utilization.
• Improvement in contribution margin.

Net Present Value
Net present value (NPV) is the difference between the present value of
cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time.
NPV is used in capital budgeting and investment planning to analyze the
profitability of a projected investment or project.

PROJECT REPORT
In simple words project report or business plan is a written statement of what
an entrepreneur proposes to take up. It is a kind of course of action what the
entrepreneur hopes to achieve in his business and how he is going to achieve
it. In other words, project report serves like a road map to reach the
destination determined by the entrepreneur.
Contents of Project Report
• General Information • Promoter • Location
• Land and Building • Plant and Machinery
• Production process • Utilities
• Transport and communication • Raw material

Different approaches to the management of the project life cycle lead to
different emphasis being put on design. There are two fundamentally
different types of project life cycle. They are differentiated by what is
considered to be the work of project management.

Machkund Hydro Electric (Joint) Scheme is an Inter-State Project of Government of Andhra
Pradesh and Government of Orissa.The Project is located on the western slopes of the Eastern
Ghats near the well know Duduma falls on Machkund River. As per the Inter State Agreement,
Andhra Pradesh and Orissa share the capital expenditure and power benefits in the ratio of
70:30 respectively.
A storage reservoir of 34 TMCft gross capacity at Jalaput to impound the flow in the
Machkund River. Diversion dam is constructed, 17 miles downstream of Jalaput dam, to divert
the water into the power canal.

PROJECT APPRAISAL
Method of Project Appraisal of a proposed project includes the following
analyses :
1) Economic analysis
2 ) Financial analysis
3 ) Market analysis
4 ) Technical analysis
5 ) Managerial competence
6 ) Ecological analysis

Economic Analysis
Under economic analysis the aspects highlighted include
• Requirements for raw material
• Level of capacity utilization
• Anticipated sales
• Anticipated expenses
• Proposed profits
• Estimated demand

Department of Mechanical Engineering


14-10-2020 33
Course code:EHS 401
Financial Analysis
In order to analyse the financial viability of the project, the
following aspects need to be taken into consideration:
• Cost of capital
• Means of finance
• Estimates of sales and production
• Cost of production
• Working capital requirement and its financing
• Estimates of working results
• Break-even point
• Projected cash flow
• Projected balance sheet.

Pay-back Period
This is the simplest of all methods and calculates the time required to
recover the initial project investment out of the subsequent cash flow. It
is computed by dividing the investment amount by the sum of the annual
returns (income – expenditure) until it is equal to the capital cost.

Example1. (Uniform annual return)


A farmer has invested about Rs. 20000/- in constructing a fish pond and
gets annual net return of Rs.5000/- (difference between annual income
and expenditure). The pay back period for the project is 4 years (20000/
5000).

Department of Mechanical Engineering


14-10-2020 35
Course code:EHS 401
Example 2.(Varying annual return)
In a project Rs.1,00,000/- an initial investment of establishing a
horticultural orchard. The annual cash flow is as under.

The drawback in this method is that it ignores any return received after the payback
period and assumes equal value for the income and expenditure irrespective of the
time.
It is also possible that projects with high return on investments beyond the pay-back
period may not get the deserved importance i.e., two projects having same pay-back
period – one giving no return and the other providing large return after pay-back
period will be treated equally, which is logically not correct.

Technical Analysis
The following inputs taken into consideration:
•Availability of Land and site
•Availability of Water Power, transport, communication
facilities.
•Availability of servicing facilities like machine shop, electric
repair shop etc.
•Coping with anti pollution law
•Availability of work force
•Availability of required raw material as per quantity and
quality.

Market Analysis
Before the production actually starts, the entrepreneur
needs to anticipate the possible market for the product.
He has to anticipate who will be the possible customer for
his product and where his product will be sold. This is
because production has no value for the producer unless
it is sold. In fact, the potential of the market constitutes
the determinant of possible reward from entrepreneurial
career.
The commonly used methods to estimate the demand for
a product are as follows:
1. Opinion polling method
2. Life Cycle Segmentation Analysis
Department of Mechanical Engineering
14-10-2020 38
Course code:EHS 401
Opinion polling method

In this method, the opinion of the ultimate users. This may be


attempted with the help of either a complete survey of all customers
or by selecting a few consuming units out of the relevant population.
Life Cycle Segmentation Analysis
It is well established that like a man, every product has its own life
span. In practice, a product sells slowly in the beginning. Barked by
sales promotion strategies over period its sales pick up. In the due
course of time the peak sale is reached. After that point the sales
begins to decline. After sometime, the product loses its demand and
dies. This is natural death of a product. Thus, every product passes
through its life cycle.

The product life cycle has been divided into the following five
stage : Introduction, Growth, Maturity, Saturation and Decline.

SELF ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS
1. Define Project Management and outline its features clearly.

2. Discuss the process of generating and screening the project ideas.


3. What can a firm do to stimulate the flow of Project Ideas?
4. Discuss the concept of project life cycle.
5. What factors influence the project ideas?. Discuss their implications.
6. Define the term ‘Project’. How will you classify the projects ?
7. What do you understand by project identification? Discuss, with
examples, the process involved in project identification.
9. How are projects classified ? In your view which criterion seems to be
more rational and acceptable for classification of a project?
Ecological Analysis
In recent years, environmental concerns have assumed
great deal of significance. Ecological analysis should also
be done particularly for major projects which have
significant implication like power plant and irrigation
schemes, and environmental pollution industries like bulk-
drugs, chemical and leather processing. The key factors
considered for ecological analysis are :
1.Environmental damage
2. Restoration measure
