The city of Greendale wants to contract with your company to build a new baseball stadium. They have received a bond issue that will provide for $100M for the project. The proposal is that 5 equal payments of $20M will be paid over the course of the project. The initial investment that your company will require is $20M. The projected annual labor and materials budget is $10M. Additionally, you will need to make a capital outlay of $10M in year 3 for new equipment. The company requires a rate of return of 15%.

The stadium is an outdoor structure with a retractable roof. The project begins with clearing the site. Once the site is clear, work can start simultaneously on the structure itself and demolishing an adjacent building site. This demolition is necessary to create a construction stage for storing materials and equipment. The work on the stadium begins by driving 160 support pilings. Next comes the pouring of the lower concrete bowl. Once this is done the construction site has been set up, then the pouring of the main concourse, the installation of the playing field, and the construction of the upper steel bowl can occur.

Once the concourse and upper bowl are completed, work can start simultaneously on building the luxury boxes, installing the sets, installing the jumbotron, and installing the stadium infrastructure which includes: bathrooms, lockers, restaurants, etc. Once the seats are installed then the steel canopy can be constructed followed by the installation of the lights. The retractable roof represents the most significant technical challenge to the project.

Building the roof track supports can begin after the lower concrete bowl is constructed. At this time the dimensions of the roof can be finalized and the construction of the roof at a separate site can begin. After the roof supports are completed then the roof tracks can be installed. Once the tracks and the roof are complete then the roof can be installed and made operational. Once all activities are completed a final inspection is required prior to occupancy. For purposes of this case assume the following:

1. The following holidays are observed: January 1, Memorial Day (last Monday in May), July 4th, Labor Day (first Monday in September), Thanksgiving Day (4th Thursday in November), December 25 and 26.

2. If a holiday falls on a Saturday then Friday will be given as an extra day off and if it falls on a Sunday then Monday will be given as a day off.

3. The construction crew work Monday through Friday.

4. As soon as the bid is accepted work will begin on May 1, 2017.

5. All duration and relationship data is located in the posted spreadsheet.

1. Perform an NPV assessment to first determine whether your company should accept the contract.

2. If you decide to proceed what is the expected NPV value of the contract.

3. Develop a scope statement for this project.

4. Then develop a work breakdown structure that reflects the information in table 1.

5. What is the expected duration of the project and assuming you will begin construction on October 1, 2016, what date do you expect to complete?

6. What is the critical path for the project?

Background

Zhou Bicycle Company (ZBC), located in Seattle, is a wholesale distributor of bicycles and bicycle parts. Formed in 1981 by University of Washington Professor Yong-Pin Zhou, the firmâs primary retail outlets are located within a 400-mile radius of the distribution center. These retail outlets receive the order from ZBC within 2 days after notifying the distribution center, provided that the stock is available. However, if an order is not fulfilled by the company, no backorder is placed; the retailers arrange to get their shipment from other distributors, and ZBC loses that amount of business.

The company distributes a wide variety of bicycles. The most popular model, and the major source of revenue to the company, is the AirWing. ZBC receives all the models from a single manufacturer in China, and shipment takes as long as 4 weeks from the time an order is placed. With the cost of communication, paperwork, and customs clearance included, ZBC estimates that each time an order is placed, it incurs a cost of $65. The purchase price paid by ZBC, per bicycle, is roughly 60% of the suggested retail price for all the styles available, and the inventory carrying cost is 1% per month (12% per year) of the purchase price paid by ZBC. The retail price (paid by the customers) for the AirWing is $170 per bicycle.

ZBC is interested in making an inventory plan for 2016. The firm wants to maintain a 95% service level with its customers to minimize the losses on the lost orders. The data collected for the past 2 years are summarized in the following table. A forecast for AirWing model sales in 2016 has been developed and will be used to make an inventory plan for ZBC.

Month	2014	2015	2016 Forecast
January	6	7	8
February	12	14	15
March	24	27	31
April	46	53	59
May	75	86	97
June	47	54	65
July	30	34	39
August	18	21	27
September	13	15	16
October	12	13	15
November	22	25	28
December	38	42	47
Totals	343	391	447

Bonus Question: Trace the inventory balance over the course of the year. Assume starting inventory balance of 35 bicycles. Also assume that retail orders are called into ZBC the first business day of every month and the first order to ZBC suppliers is on Jan 4, 2016.
Hint: Take into consideration orders to suppliers and supplier lead time, orders from retailers and lead time in shipments to retailers, as well as the estimated time between orders to suppliers. Consider creating a table such as:

What conclusions or recommendations do you draw from tracing the inventory in step 5?

Date		Description	Order Amount	Inventory In	Inventory Out	Inventory Balance
		Beginning inventory				35
1/4/2016	Monday	Retail order received	8			35
1/4/2016	Monday	Order placed to supplier	EOQ			35
####	XXXXX	Retail order sent out			8	27
####	XXXXX	Supplier order received		EOQ		###
2/1/2016	Monday	Retail order received	15			###
####	XXXXX	Retail order sent out			15	###
####	XXXXX	Order placed to supplier	EOQ			###
