• Poster were not printed in time • Graphic designer was late • Red bull didn’t work out • Lack of ‘what's in your fridge’ uploads • We kept a risk log throughout the process which we

added to • Made sure we had appropriate contingency plans

What did we do well? • Worked well as a team • Flexibility and Adaptability • Stall in the atrium • Innovative

What did we learn? • Importance of communication • Being realistic • Naivety • Professionalism

What would we do differently? • Prioritise the APM challenge • Utilise our resources more • Select one deliverable • Communicated more with certain

stakeholders

Recommendations we have developed for future projects • Ensure initial objectives are realistic • Maintaining motivation • Communicate with stakeholders • Be cost effective whenever feasible

• Lack of comments from external users (not as self manageable as originally expected)

• Maintaining the site ourselves is feasible in the short term

• Long term view seek out new owners – possible first year students looking for project management experience.

• Karen for embedding this opportunity into the unit

• Russel (our mentor) for guiding us through the process
