Tasks that are generally scoped for that individual due to contract terms oftenly end up have to do more than what was originally scoped.

Some people do not have qualms about doing it but some do and it makes managers feel like they owe them a living

Most last minute projects like the recent ones.

HRD Corp & Subaru Forester.

These are poorly managed projects that ends up falling into really rushed timelines.

# data[].attributes.body
For instances like CNA project, the setup date was blocked out in advance but ALL studio personnel were required to step out during the setup itself and it was a very unprofessional look as client was present. Producer was unaware until the day of the setup. In future, let's respect that the crew has been booked for the day and is unavailable.

Covered during Mediacorp AAR - Communication was very messy and scope of work was very unclear for the team managing the project. In future, a written Scope of Work should be provided, along with a proper internal kickoff meeting

Currently we only have rashidi in as a full time.

Sairah and naz will be leaving as they complete their diploma in Q3.

A TD/studio manager that is capable of the know hows.

We do not have enough people for studio crew. Now that we have IMS it will be more difficult to manage.

Projects often have low budget tight timelines. Increasing burnout rates and also unhappiness & toxicity

# data[].attributes.body
Actual cost of a project is higher than quotation submitted or budget given by the client. And also when the project extended, we do not have the visibility to calculate the effort / human resources spent, so in a way the project may be already losing money.

# data[].attributes.body
Many group chats, many streams of information - challenging to distill information and prioritize actions.

# data[].attributes.body
Rushed timelines, imbalance distribution of manpower per proj, disorganised information as it goes down the chain, over accumulated OILs, deliveries often exceed project scope due to clients last minute add on

Get relevant parties involved in the discussion at the proposal stage and come up with a itemized scope of work for the kick off meeting along with the estimated timeline.

Meetings should always involve key personnel so that we cover all key discussions.

Items that are out of scope due to team skill set should be rejected early, if not outsourced early to prevent mishandling of timeline, this should be generally be cleared and discussed on our internal pre kick-off meeting.

Reframe Issue:

P1 : Budget & Timeline

P2: Imbalance manpower assignment

P3. Generally prefer to serve direct client

P4. AS serves client with clear scope. AP is an agency - very exploratory

Solutions:

1. Bigger project budget & longer timeline

2. Qualify projects/clients

3. Power to the Project leader/Producer – not all customers are right

4. Bosses to empower the teams to self-run. Promote safe space, encourage failure.
