SPC Products Company Project POPS
SPC Products Company-Project POPS Problem: The problem with Sonpan Products Company, SPC,-Project POPS is the poor communication style leading to an uncertainty in decision making. SPC Products is a software engineering subcontractor for a large well-known firm, Lakshmi, and they must cope with uncertainty and tough performance standards. ... For instance, IPT initially told Lakshmi if they were to decline the POPS project, SPC will never give another project to Lakshmi. ... The project size drastically changed from May of 17,000 hours, July 1st of 18,600 hours and the next day to 11,600 hours. The final project size would be 25,000 hours. This example is a clear indicator of poor communication between SPC and Lakshmi. ... There was no quota set, no organized schedule or agreement, uncertainty within each company, and too many changes and postponed productivity due to communication. Effective communication would have benefited SPC and POPS, but this lack of communication created a negative impact and many problems followed due to bad communication. ... During the entire POPS proposal, dates and times were changed every day. A detailed, reasonable schedule would have organized SPC and the communication channel. ... A detailed schedule with times and dates would create an organized flow of communication between each other and within each sole company. ... Dates and times would be clear and this would make communicating needed in order to complete the project POPS execution.
