Mission/
Purpose The Wi-Fi and coffee shop will cater to customers who love the great
smell and taste of the best organic coffee, while surfing the web using
the fastest public free Wi-Fi. This shop has coffee at its core, while
enjoying the highest quality whole bean coffees you will be able to
indulge yourself in our food menu. Our passion doesn’t just start and
end with coffee; we are committed to crafting the freshest sandwiches
and pastries that are made daily in our shop. The décor will only be
made of up the most comfortable materials that will only add to the
experience and not distract from the core of the business. Along with
coffee the core of the business has three values that will help move
the company forward, which are integrity, loyalty, and commitment.
Our goal will be to show every coffee drinker that our coffee is the
best in the world. Crafting one delicious cup of coffee at a time. Project
Description
and Project
Product This project will create a high level coffee shop to compete with the
likes of Starbucks and many other coffee shops. Most work for this
project will be outsourced such as the creation of the building, the
inventory needed to supply the customers and furniture/equipment to
use while open. Five measureable tasks will be used to make sure
the project is on time to be completed by 12/10/2015.
1. Location and permits obtained by 10/21/2015.
2. Electrical, plumbing and wireless network completed by
11/07/2015.
3. Have all inspections cleared by 11/19/2015.
4. Equipment Delivery, Material Delivery, and Furniture Delivery
and setup by 11/30/2015.
5. All employees trained and ready to open on or before
12/10/2015. Objectives The primary objective of the Wi-Fi and coffee shop will be to serve
customers at a high standard. In order to meet this objective 4 goals
will determine the success of the project. They are to complete the
project on time, which would be by 12/10/2015, to double first week
sales in the second week, to finish this project under budget by at
least 10,000 dollars, and lastly to have all employees trained and
ready to work by opening. Page 4 of 18 The Coffee Café
Project Plan Document Business
Need 3. The project leaders have noticed that in their area of interest
there are no places to get a quick cup of coffee. The
closet coffee shop, a Starbucks, is about five miles down
the road. While Starbucks does offer a high quality,
delicious product the project leaders feel that they can
offer a product along the same lines for a lesser price
while still achieving a profit that will keep the business
open and thriving. Also, like Starbucks, the project
leaders feel that they can provide sandwiches and
pastries that are of a higher quality and are fresh and
made in house. Key Milestones Start Date End Date Property Purchase 10/07/2015 10/11/2015 Project Kick-Off/ Ground

Exclusions
and
Boundaries This project is constrained to the completion of the building process of
our high end coffee shop. We are outsourcing the actual construction
of our building so we are excluding the procurement of materials from
the scope of this project. We are also excluding all data after the
completion of the construction project.
The items listed below are out of the scope of the project and must be
carefully monitored to keep the project on track. Major Risks Supplies, services and/or equipment provided by the
subcontractors that do not have prior approval of the project
manager.
All work provided by subcontractors who have not obtained the
licensing necessary to them to complete the work properly, proof
of insurance by the proper accrediting organization
Hours in which work of the shop can be done There are many major risks that can affect the completion of a project
such as this. Unforeseen weather events can push back completion dates
and delay the project. Backorders on Materials Damaged goods being delivered to the job site Drawing specifications not being able to met in the field. Installation problems such as drywall screws going through
Page 7 of 18 The Coffee Café
Project Plan Document plumbing or electrical installation. Employee sickness Cutting into structural concrete when putting in electrical floor
boxes or “trenches” Not passing different inspections: I.E. plumbing, electrical,
HVAC, etc Soil tests must be conducted to determine if there is any
ground contamination. This can be very time consuming and
very expensive. KEY STAKEHOLDERS Project Manager

In order to get our coffee store up and running we will require a lot of
Requirements equipment. We will require 3 SPARC Enterprise M8000 servers in order to run
the application software for our store. These servers are high end servers and
will allow us to quickly process orders and get people in and out quickly. We
will also require several Royal TS1200MW cash registers in order to be able to
process payments from our loyal customers. We will also be installing a phone
and computer charging stations throughout the store so that our customers
will be able to stay and enjoy our establishment. Also, we will require 4
expresso machines. For these we will get the Nuova Simonelli
Appia 3 machine. We will need two toilets and two sinks for the men and
women’s restrooms. For the restrooms we will also need paper towel
dispensers. The store will also require storage cabinets throughout the store
so that coffee and other items can be stored easily and are quickly accessible.
Chairs and Tables are also a necessity for our store function. We will be
needing a speaker system throughout the store to be able to play music as
well as a stereo system to play the music through. Also we will need a
refrigerating system in order to our perishables as well 2 commercial blenders
to crush ice. 5. Work Breakdown Structure / Project Schedule. 6. Risk Management Plan Page 15 of 18 The Coffee Café
