This is an individual assignment (Equivalent of2000 words) Assignment Scenario

You are  a project manager in a prefabricated concrete manufacturing company, Kuspra Ltd. The main business of your company is the construction of houses for sale using its prefabricated components. Your prefabrication  plant is situated  inside the Industrial Park of Blumac town and is close to three housing estates and a small village, which in total have a population  of about 3000 people (See map below). River Cruze passes directly  alongside your site boundary.   The river is a successful habitat for several kinds of fish, and supports a thriving local small-scale fishing industry. Your prefabrication plant has been in its present  location  for over 25 years and is a prime location because of the nearby road and rail networks which the firm uses to transport its raw materials and fmished products.

In recent times, unusually heavy rains   have caused the river to overflow its banks. This flooded your site and caused  a large leak from your cement storage silos into the river.   In the summer of 2014, an explosion in the plant spread toxic fumes to the surrounding residential area and the fishing village. This has had serious health consequences, especially a dramatic increase in respiratory diseases, on the local population for which your organisation is currently facing legal actions from various individuals and interest groups. As a result of these incidents, a section of the local community has been quite vocal in their objection to your continued presence at the site. However, because you employ approximately 300 workers the majority  of whom come from the local community,  there  is still some tolerance of your business  among  a  sizeable  majority  of  the  locals.       Whilst  the  local  administration  and  planning authorities want your plant to relocate, they cannot enforce the move through the planning laws as the plant’s site carries some immunity. They are also acutely aware of your contribution to the local economy as a major employer.

 

In addition  to the environmental  and  planning  issues,  your company  has  been unable  to achieve  its projected annual sales growth rates in the last three years due mainly to increased competition from traditional house builders. This has been of great concern to the shareholders of your company who are worried about the value of their investments.
