Week 3 Assignment

please substitute the value of a b c d in question

what does a planning of a look ahead schedule involve? Is it verifying if punch list items have been completed, rescheduling activities due to constraints or holding weekly meetings with ll project participants?

Following is a list of tasks to be performed in preparation for a camping trip. Draw a WBS that places the tasks in their proper relationship to one another.

Roger Ginde is developing a program in supply chain management certification for managers. Ginde has listed a number of activities that must be completed before a training program of this nature could be conducted. The activities, immediate predecessors, and times appear in the accompanying table: Immediate Predecessor(s) Activity ABCDEFG This exercise contains only parts b, c, and d. b) The critical activities for the leadership training program development project are B A, D C E, F Time (days) 4 5 3 10 4 6 10

Draw the network diagram linking all the activities in a way that it shows if there exist any preceding activity/activities before starting each of the mentioned activities in the above table, ii. Showing the earliest start time, the earliest finish time, the latest start time and the latest finish time of each of the activities in the project determine the completion time of the project and the critical path. ii. Find the slack time (delay time) of each of the activities, the critical and the non-critical activities. Find the minimum possible completion time of the project by considering the crashed completion times and the minimal total cost of that crashing the project. iv. Need proper handwritten answers. Thank you!

Which method for determining activity time estimates,deterministic or probabilistic, do you perceive to be preferable? Explain.

Given the information below, estimate the probability that the noncritical path B-C-G will take more than 15 weeks. Hint: Subtract from 1.0 the probability that B-C-G will take 15 weeks or less. Refer to the standard normal table.

How is Project Planning, Scheduling, and Controlling is managed by the OM manager?

Hoosier Burger Juan Rodriquez has assigned you the task of requirements determination for the Hoosier Burger project. You are looking forward to this opportunity because it will allow you to meet and interact with Hoosier Burger employees. Besides interviewing Bob and Thelma Mellankamp, you decide to collect information from Hoosier Burger’s waiters, cooks, and customers. Mr. Rodriquez suggests that you formally interview Bob and Thelma Mellankamp and perhaps observe them performing their daily management tasks. You decide that the best way to collect requirements from the waiters and cooks is to interview and observe them. You realize that discussing the order-taking process with Hoosier Burger employees and then observing them in action will provide you with a better idea of where potential system improvements can be made. You also decide to prepare a questionnaire to distribute to Hoosier Burger customers. Because Hoosier Burger has a large customer base, it would be impossible to…

Task 4d - Please solve this question in detail.

Kindly provide an example of an Implementation Schedule.

You are the project manager of the software installation project in Table. You would like to find the minimum- cost schedule for your project.

The Peabody Coal Corporation recently completed the final feasibility report for a new general ledger accounting system. It has hired a consulting firm to program and install the new system. The consulting firm is charging $350,000 for the remaining tasks to be performed. These tasks are to be performed over the next 10 months as detailed in the Gantt chart in the diagram. The consulting firm is extremely concerned with the project staying on schedule because it is receiving a flat fee. The release of the final payment is contingent upon the system performing as stated in the contract and upon Peabody receiving appropriate documentation of the system.Requireda. Prepare a PERT diagram and indicate the critical path.b. What happens to the time frame of the implementation of the project if the manufacturer is 4 weeks late shipping the hardware?c. What happens if the data conversion does not go smoothly and takes an additional 3 weeks? d. Who should conduct the postimplementation review?…
