     7.5 Submission Checklist and Final Assembly

    Ensuring Your Execution Deliverables Are Complete, Coherent, and Professional

    By the end of this chapter, you will assemble a complete execution-phase deliverable package that demonstrates your ability to:

    • Diagnose real project execution problems

    • Apply SOW, Contract, SRS, and HLDD expectations

    • Use performance metrics (SPI, CPI, SV, CV, EAC)

    • Write professional PMO-quality communications

    • Monitor vendor performance under pressure

    • Recommend corrective actions with clarity and authority

    Use this checklist to make sure your deliverables are complete and in their final polished state before submission.

    A. Required Deliverables

    Each student must submit all items below.

    1. Eight Completed Memo Worksheets

    One worksheet per memo (Memo #1 through Memo #8), each including:

    • Part A – Internal Action Plan

      • Core issue

      • Impact areas (scope/schedule/cost/quality/team/vendor/reporting)

      • Document references (SOW/Contract/SRS/HLDD/Reporting Guidelines)

      • Recommended next action

      • Assumptions or constraints

    • Part B – Professional Communication

      • Email or memo formatted professionally

      • Correct recipient(s) based on WinSoft Resource List

      • Clear actionable requests

      • Contractual or SOW-specific citations where needed

      • Deadline or follow-up expectations

    📁 File naming format:
    CBay_MemoX_Worksheet_YourName.docx


    2. Final Execution Reflection (Required)

    A ½–1 page reflection addressing:

    • What you learned about project execution

    • How Earned Value influenced your decisions

    • Which memo challenged you most

    • Where you hesitated and why

    • How your leadership judgment evolved

    • What you would do differently in a real project

    📁 File name:
    CBay_ExecutionReflection_YourName.docx


    3. Progress Log (Recommended)

    A simple table or summary tracking:

    • Week

    • Memo topic

    • Issue category

    • Your response theme

    • Lessons learned

    This helps demonstrate iterative learning.

    📁 File name:
    CBay_Execution_ProgressLog_YourName.docx


    B. Optional Deliverables (Extra Credit)

    4. Earned Value Workbook (Optional but Strongly Encouraged)

    Using the provided spreadsheet template:

    • Fill in PV, EV, and AC

    • Review auto-calculated SV, CV, SPI, CPI

    • Include your own commentary on performance trends

    📁 File name:
    CBay_EVM_YourName.xlsx


    5. Updated Bulls-Eye Chart (Optional)

    Chart using SPI (x-axis) and CPI (y-axis) for any memo or combined performance.

    📁 File name:
    CBay_BullsEye_YourName.xlsx


    📂 C. Folder Structure for Final Submission

    Submit your complete package as a single folder named:

    CBay_ExecutionPhase_YourName

    Your folder should include:

    CBay_ExecutionPhase_YourName/
    │
    ├── Worksheets/
    │   ├── CBay_Memo1-8_Worksheet_YourName.docx
    │
    ├── Reflection/
    │   └── CBay_ExecutionReflection_YourName.docx
    │
    ├── Optional/

    │   ├── CBay_BullsEye_YourName.xlsx   (optional)
    │   └── CBay_Execution_ProgressLog_YourName.docx (optional)
    │
    └── README.txt   (optional summary of your submission contents)
