Task 2 – Project
General Instructions
In this task you will be required to refer to the simulated company “Bounce Fitness” (Access to the Bounce
Fitness website details are available on Canvas) and demonstrate your ability to define, develop, administer,
monitor, finalise, and review a project.
Read the case study below and complete the activities.
Introduction
Bounce Fitness is made up of four (4) fitness centres. Their head office is currently in Cairns, Queensland.
The other centres are in Brisbane, (Queensland), Sydney, (New South Wales) and Melbourne, (Victoria).
It is the intention of the Board of Directors that a new centre will be opened in Perth, (Western
Australia).
It was established in 2001 by Margaret House as a single aerobics studio. After two years, membership
increases demanded the small, leased, centre be expanded and a new facility was built on land purchased
by the organisation. In 2004 a second centre was established on leased premises in Brisbane and then
Sydney and Melbourne in the subsequent two years.
The Head Office remains in Cairns and a Board of Directors has been established to oversee the function
of the business in all of the centres. Each centre has a Manager, who reports to the CEO in Cairns, and a
team of permanently employed fitness instructors and other casual instructors, all of whom report to the
Centre Manager.
The business is operated on best business practice and complies with all legislative requirements, local
by- laws and is registered with the national body.
Bounce Fitness intends to market its brand through excellence in service and expertise to establish itself
as a premier provider of fitness and wellness in Australia. A lot of time is invested in training the Centre
staff to upgrade their professional skills and customer service to foster a loyal member base. Classes are
innovative and varied with regular changes to routines and activities.
Bounce Fitness has developed choreographed fitness moves with accompanying music which is geared to
the varying interests, needs and goals of the member group. It is intended that all around Australia, gym,
and fitness centre members will continue to be enhancing personal performance through classes designed
and produced by this business.
Classes are coupled with state-of-the-art fitness equipment to cater to those who prefer resistance
training to aerobic workouts. Additional free weights allow for use by even die-hard lifters.
All centres are carpeted in areas used for stationary activities, spacious, well-ventilated, and air-
conditioned to make the environment as safe and comfortable as possible. They are light and feature
wrap-around mirrored walls. The decor was designed by a Brisbane firm and is updated every three
years. There are showers, toilets, and lockers.
Each centre features a retail section selling fitness shoes, clothes, and other related fitness items. There
is a small cafeteria which is leased to a provider who supplies healthy, low calorie drinks and light food.
Each Centre has regularly scheduled aerobic classes ranging from high intensity to low intensity. The
scheduling is left to each centre but must sustain a minimum average of twelve in each class for them to
3|Page
continue to be held. The style of classes changes as new methods are developed to sustain interest and
4|Page
provide variety.
Group circuit classes are also available. They involve rotation around the different resistance equipment
as instructed by the Instructor. The workout also includes interval aerobic exercises to enhance the value
of the workout.
Very low intensity classes are also held in age care facilities to keep residents active. The classes
incorporate light weights. This exercise contributes to the physical and mental health of participants as
well as providing variety in their day.
Special classes are held in high schools for senior students, sheltered workshops and other special
situations as requested and are operated as a community service, at minimal or no cost.
Funding is primarily from memberships. Memberships are sold on a one, three, six- and twelve-month
basis on a decreasing fee scale. Casual members are welcome, but the daily rate is a premium one.
Each centre sells memberships to 120% of their capacity. This means that at peak times it could be quite
crowded, but experience demonstrates that there is a maximum of 80% usage.
The retail arm of the business accounts for about 30% of the takings from each centre. The strategic plan
for retail is set to increase investment in sales this year to 35%. Each centre will be given a budget to
develop and implement a sales and marketing plan to trial. The most successful may be implemented
nationally and will attract an incentive for the most successful centre.
The catering facilities, which produce 5% of the income, less any rent off-set, are currently leased
to private operators. This is reconsidered during each annual planning session by the Board.
The Board of Directors have come up with some business objectives and Key Performance Indicators
for the next 12 months for each of the centres. You are the Centre Manager for the Sydney Centre and
are also required to meet the business objectives as per below:
• Generate a 10% yearly increase in sales
• Increase market penetration every quarter
• Continue to cultivate Bounce Fitness’s image as the premier long-term wellness
program provider
• Decrease customer acquisition costs by 4% every two quarters
• Lower the cost of service delivery by 1% a quarter
• Holding spending, as a percentage of sales at a steady rate.
To meet the business objectives, it was decided to open a coffee shop at the Fitness Centre to bring more
customers to the centre. The idea is also to have a hub where clients can also socialise after their
sessions and be able to have healthy snacks and meals.
You, as the Centre Manager, are responsible for the above project for your Fitness Centre.
