PROJECT SELECTION AND INITIATION
Case Assignment
About
the Case Study:
In the early morning hours of
July 16, 1945, the first nuclear weapon an A-bomb, in 20th century
parlance — was detonated in the New Mexico desert. Dr. Theodore Taylor
was one of the project scientists. Here, minus some technical details, is
his description of such an explosion:
When (a bomb) is detonated, the temperature in the core
builds up to several hundred million degrees in one-hundred millionth of a
second. That is many times the temperature at the center of the
Sun. Pressures build up to 100 million atmospheres, and the core begins
to expand at five million miles per hour. (Every chemical element) is in there;
barium, iodine, cesium strontium, hydrogen, tin, copper, gold(The initial
fireball is) something 12 inches across, expanding faster than anything in our
Galaxy. Conditions there are quite different, perhaps, from anywhere else
in the Universe, unless there are other people who make bombs.
(McPhee, 1973; pgs. 118-9).

Seventy years ago, we saw the
birth of something utterly new;new not only for us humans but also, perhaps,
for the entire Universe. That event was a turning point in human
history. It was, perhaps, the beginning of the end of
human history. The rest of the story is still being written, in places as
dissimilar as Pakistan, North Korea and Iran.
The famous project that
produced the A-bomb, which moved from untested theory to deliverable weapons in
the middle of World War Two, was the Manhattan Project. At its peak, the
project employed 130,000 people, most of whom had no idea what they were doing,
and consumed as much energy and materiel as the American automobile
industry. Not only every project manager, but every world citizen, should
know about the Project, because it changed every citizens life.
The Manhattan Project did not
run smoothly. Its the classic example of a project succeeding because it
had to; it was simply unimaginable that either Nazi Germany or Imperial
Japan would win the War. Despite its rocky history, however, its
worthwhile to examine the evolution of the Project, and compare it to the
stages of an ideal project, both to appreciate what could have been done
better, and to acquire a sense of humility concerning the entire project
management enterprise. It is, after all, amazing what people can accomplish,
either with or without report-generation software.
The definitive on-line source
concerning the Manhattan Project is provided by AtomicArchive.com (AJ,
2015). For an overview, you should scan the entire 99 page site. The
material is voluminous, but well organized, and tightly edited. The definitive
print source is Rhodes (1986; paperback edition 1995), which is now available
used , online, for less than one dollar. Anyone with even a passing interest in
either management, science, technology or history should own a copy.
About
Case 1:
For this case, we will examine
the Origination and Initiation (NY Guide, 2002; Chaps. 3.1 & 3.2) of
the Manhattan Project (AJ, 2015; Rhodes, 1995). For information about these
phases of the project, please refer to the Module 1 Homepage.
When contemplating something
totally new, the alternatives are simple; either try to do it, or
dont. In this case, we know which alternative was selected.
For Case 1, write an essay
answering the following questions:
Q1; What were the factors
that entered into the decision? Describe and explain.
Q2: Since the decision
involved unknowns, risk estimation was highly subjective. What factors
(e.g., familiarity, manageability) played roles in the estimation
process? Explain.

PROJECT SELECTION AND INITIATION
While the four Cases track the
progress of a major historical project that succeeded, the four SLPs examine a
small fictitious project that failed.
In the Woody 2000 case study,
Wideman (2015) describes a family-owned woodworking company that needs to
expand its manufacturing capacity. Begin by reading the first sections of
the case: Introduction, Background, Corporate Profile, Key Players, the
Opportunity and Project Concept. Then, address the following
questions in a short essay. (These are found at the end of the Case.)

1. Project Concept
and Strategy

a.

Was the Woody 2000
project well conceived? Give reasons for your opinion.

b.

What were Woody’s
real objectives that could and should have been articulated?

c.

What strategies were
there for achieving these objectives? What would you recommend?

d.

Did they consider
other solutions? Give Examples.

e.

How would you gauge
the project’s success? Could success be measured? If so, when?

2. Project Scope

a.

Why do you suppose
renovation of the President and Executive Vice President’s offices were
included in the project and was that a good idea?

b.

Write a simple
project scope statement.

c.

Develop a work
breakdown structure.

Module 2 – Case
PROJECT PLANNING
Case Assignment
The biggest challenge facing
the Manhattan Project was the production of weapons-grade uranium. There
are two types, or isotopes, of uranium, U-235 and U-238, which differ only in
the number of neutrons in the nucleus. The first isotope, which is only
0.72% of naturally occurring uranium, can sustain a fast fission chain
reaction; i.e., a nuclear explosion. The second isotope cannot.
U-235 and U-238 are
chemically identical; a chemical compound made with U-235 is
indistinguishable from one made with U-238. The two isotopes have the
same melting and boiling points. This similarity means that conventional
refining methods cannot separate them. Rather, they have to be separated
atom by atom, taking advantage of the 1% difference in nuclear mass.
There are several techniques, but all require a massive amount of energy.
They are

Electromagnetic separation

Centrifugal separation (In the news: Search the Web for Iran
nuclear program.)

Gaseous diffusion

Thermal diffusion
The first planning challenge
facing the Project was to determine the best way of purifying the uranium,
which they solved in a unique, cost-is-no-object fashion.
Q1: What did they do?
As the program continued, the
advantages and disadvantages of the various techniques became clear.
Q2: What were the
advantages and disadvantages of each? List and discuss.
Near the end of the program,
some of the purification techniques were combined, and some were eliminated.
Q3: Explain.
Obviously, the sort of
brute-force approach applied to the Manhattan Project, by a rich nation
involved in a total war, isnt the sort of approach one would recommend to a
private company developing (say) a new phone. Just the same —
Q4: What, if any, lessons
are there for a company working on the cutting edge of science and technology?

Module 3 – Case
PROJECT EXECUTION AND CONTROL
Case Assignment
The Manhattan Project was
unique in at least one respect; a major industrial enterprise was built
in support of a totally new, untested product one that it may not have been
possible to build. Although scientists knew that heavy atoms like uranium
spontaneously disintegrated, producing energetic radiation, it was by no means
certain that the process could be scaled up to produce an explosion. The
only way to find out was to try and the only way to try was to first separate
kilograms of U235 from tons of U238. (A parallel project was aimed at
producing fissionable plutonium; both proceeded in parallel, because it
was by no means certain that either project would succeed.)
The massive work of uranium
separation and plutonium production took place concurrently with basic
scientific research and technical weapons design. The first employed
thousands of workers, most of them laborers with no scientific background
whatsoever. The second employed hundreds of the greatest scientific minds
of the day, including (in a supporting role) Albert Einstein.
The production work and the
theoretical work required vastly different control mechanisms. The
greatest need on the production side was secrecy. The mere fact that the
United States had made uranium separation a high national priority would tell
scientists in other countries much more than the American government wanted
them to know. The greatest need on theoretical side was the
free exchange of information among the scientists. If Physicist A wanted
to discuss an idea with Physicist B, he wanted to talk to him directly not
draft a report, to be read, classified, and hand-delivered by Military
Intelligence.
The solution was to create two
entirely different organizations within the Manhattan Project; one managed
by military officers, the second by a distinguished, charismatic physicist.
Q1: What were the
organizations?
Q2: Who were the
managers? How well were they suited to their jobs?
Based upon your detailed
knowledge of modern project management techniques,
Q3: Could the control problems
have been anticipated?
Q4: What, if anything,
should have been done differently at the beginning of the Manhattan Project?
At the risk of giving too much
away, we should note that one of the organizations still exists: Los
Alamos National Laboratory of the US Department of Energy. Feel free to
visit the website. No scientific organization in the world has a more
interesting history, or a more distinguished pedigree.

Module 4 – Case
PROJECT CLOSEOUT
Case Assignment
The
past is never dead. Its not even past.

—–William
Faulkner
In this Module, we consider
what happens to a project once it reaches the finish line, if it ever does.
Some projects, such as
the iPhone, are finished at product rollout. Production, of course,
continues as a frantic pace, but the design is frozen, at least for a time.
Other major projects, notably
telescopes and particle accelerators, are never finished, at least in the eyes
of the development teams. Rather, theyre taken away from them by the
customers, who are anxious to begin work, and convinced that better is the
enemy of good enough.
Other projects just sort of
wither away. President Reagans ballistic missile defense system,
popularly known as Star Wars, encountered a plethora of technical challenges
and budget overruns. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 decreased
the perceived urgency of a missile defense system, and the program has languished
ever since. The first full-scale test, to be followed by an operational
deployment, was cancelled in 2009.
The Manhattan Project was
enormously successful, yet it stalled at the end of WWII. The US had a
monopoly on nuclear weapons, which it wanted to safeguard; yet after the
tests at Bikini Atoll in 1946, the stockpile of A-bombs was exhausted.
The propeller-driven B29 bomber continued to be the only delivery system.
The elite team of physicist at Los Alamos dispersed to institutes and university
faculties. Although the Fat Man bomb was a massive, inefficient device,
no new design work was undertaken.
Obviously, nuclear weapons did
not go away. In addition to weapons development, a host of ancillary
industries have come into being, such as nuclear power generation. The
newest generation of thermonuclear weapons, with yields in the megaton range,
can be carried in backpacks. What happened?
For this Case, please trace the
evolution of the American nuclear weapons program from VJ Day (Sep 2, 1945)
through dissolution of the Manhattan Engineer District in 1947. Be sure
to address the following questions:
Q1: What steps were taken
to consolidate and safeguard the knowledge gained during execution of the
Project; that is, to benefit from lessons learned?
Q2: What decisions were made
concerning the sharing of that knowledge?
Q3: Most American officials
were convinced that the secret of the A-bomb could remain an American
monopoly, given adequate security. Was that realistic? Why or why
not?
Q4: How did the organizational
legacy of the Manhattan Project, particularly the strong link between basic
scientific research and national security, affect American policy going
forward?
Q5: With the benefit of
hindsight, and modern project management techniques, how could the end of the
Manhattan Project have been managed more effectively?
