Scope Management Plan

The scope Management Plan documents how the scope for the construction of the dam will be managed. It
provides an official framework of how the scope will be defined, controlled and verified throughout the life of
the project.

The scope management will in detail address how scope will be achieved, tools to use to plan how the scope
will be accomplished, WBS creation, how scope will be managed and controlled and lastly, acceptance of
deliverables.

The scope for the construction of the dam shall be developed using industry standard tools such as Focus
groups, brainstorming, and administration of questionnaires and surveys.

Define Scope
The scope of the construction of the dam project includes design, procurement, and fabrication, construction
of a Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) Dam with optimum layers not exceeding 300mm in thickness, RCC mix
design 5-6 percent water, 5-10 percent cement, and 30-35 percent fine aggregates.

The construction phase shall cover site clearing and earthworks, determination of RCC mix, aggregate
production, foundation preparation, Culvert Diversion, River Diversion, RCC mix production, placement work,
electrical and instrumentation works.

Define Scope Statement

The main technical scope of work to be executed can be defined as follows

Feasibility Studies
 Environmental Impact Statement Analysis

Earthworks
 Site clearing and removal of soil from about 9 square kilometres of land
 Rock Scaling works
 Foundation Grouting

Determination of RCC Mix

 Selection of suitable aggregate
 Strength and Durability Testing
 Mix Proportion

RCC Installation
 Transport RCC mixture to site
 Place the RCC at a series of 15m wide strips from down to up
 RCC Compaction
 RCC Testing

Instrumentation and Control

 Installation of water level and pressure instruments
 Installation of control cables to HMI and SCADA at Control stations
 Project Exclusions
 The dam will solely be for the supply of water to the four communities and therefore excludes any
construction for electrification purposes.
 outside the battery limit is the Fabrication and laying of water pipes from the dam to the community

Project Acceptance Criteria

Project will be accepted with 98% and above compaction test results, commissioning of different systems and
systems successfully carried out within a margin of error +/- 5%. Project duration and budget not to exceed
200 days and $150m respectively.

Project Constraints
The construction of the dam is a budget constrained project as the limit of spending has
been set by the government to $150m

Project Assumptions

 It is assumed that project resources are available through from beginning to end of
the project.
 It is assumed the four local governments who are the beneficiary of the project will
allow the project to proceed as planned.
 RCC technology is new so it is assumed that skilled resource would can be easily
sourced.
