SMART goal evaluation

Evaluation of Goal using S.M.A.R.T



            To recap what I transcribed as my goal for the bathroom remodeling project, I will provide a copy of what I wrote then evaluate it according to the S.M.A.R.T criteria.

“This project is specifically tailored to replace all existing features and items that currently occupy

our home bathroom.  Since our home is only equipped with a single bathroom unit, the timing of the project is critical.  I have estimated three days for completion in which consultation with my workforce has confirmed the timeline.  The budget allotted for has been capped at $2,500 and is mostly possible due to a discounted labor rate I have been fortunate enough to utilize.  The budget is a mixture of both materials and labor collectively.  I have split up the project into three sections of tasks in order to efficiently speed up the process and allow for smoother transitions into each phase.  The end result will provide both esthetic satisfaction and overall functionality of the existing unit.”

            In the “S” section of the acronym I believe I was specific in what I described as removing all fixtures that are in the bathroom, with exception of the toilet which we are keeping, and replacing those fixtures with newly purchased ones.  By splitting the project up into sections allows for measurability of the projects duration; the “M” in the acronym.   As for the “A” section, all parties of the project have agreed upon starting, finishing, and the amount of time it would take to complete the project.  The agreement was realistic, “R”, because of the experience of the crew in their evaluation, and the size of the bathroom itself.  The project can be placed on a time-frame “T”, from start to finish it can be recorded and quantified.

                I look forward to the project for many reasons and personally feel it is greatly needed.  Behind the goal lies a lot of personal satisfaction and also on the real-estate aspect an appreciation of equity value also.  I feel it will be an exiting task to take on and the results will be enjoyed for years to come.
