ew Assessment X G As an independent pro x vle.phoenix.edu/ultra/courses/_386284_1/grades/asse X The project you have been hired to turn around is one that was started 18 months ago and was managed by the then-director of customer service, who, after 20 years, has left for another opportunity. This project, like other projects at the company, is floundering. It is already six months behind schedule and over budget, and it lacks commitment from the four other functional groups who are key stakeholders: sales, accounting, IT, and order processing. The project you are charged with getting back on track and completing is for a new customer service system that is projected to create efficiencies, automate call center functions, and increase the quality of customer service. Use this scenario to address the following in 525 to 700 words using MS Word. 1. Assess two reasons why the previous manager may not have been the right person to run this project.

Teloxy Engineering (A) Teloxy Engineering has received a onetime contract to design and build 10 000 units of a new product. During the proposal process, management felt that the new product could be designed and manufactured at a low cost. Some members felt that it would be more economical to purchase the product for R200 each in the marketplace, with an extra R20 per unit handling of the 10 000 units. The Management team set up a meeting with the manufacturing team to see if they can manufacture the component at a cheaper price than buying it from the outside. The manufacturing team informs them that it can produce a maximum of 10,000 units, just enough to fulfil the contract. The setup cost will be R100 000 and the raw material cost is R120 per component. Since Teloxy has never manufactured this product before, manufacturing expects the following defects: % defective 10 20 30 40 Probability of occurrence (%) 10 20 30 25 15 All defective units must be removed and repaired at a cost…
