- To create a project schedule, one must understand the Project Schedule Management processes; in particular, one needs to know the project work or tasks to be performed (i.e., the project scope) and their duration, as well as their dependencies and required resources. How is the knowledge of Develop Schedule process, as well as the inputs, tools & techniques, and outputs can help you in creating a project schedule for (Deliverables -These incorporate the outcomes the venture supervisory crew needs to create to meet the business goals. Project expectations can be simply the item or administration that the task will convey, guidelines and establishment manuals, promoting materials, publicizing efforts, official statements, and so on)?In the space provided below create the network diagram that shows the relationship (logic) of project activities shown below and then number each event. 1. In a given project activities "A, B and C are initial activities that may begin at the same time 2. -----"D" cannot begin until "A" is complete. 3. ----- "B" must be complete before E can begin. 4. ----- "F" cannot start until "C" is finished. 5. ----- "G" cannot begin until "B" is finished. 6. ----- "G" and "D" must be done before "H" can begin. 7. ----- "I" cannot begin until "B" is finished. 8. ----- "J" can begin only after "F" and "I" are complete. 9. ----- Once "E" is complete, "K" can begin. 10. ---- The project will be finished when "H" "J" and "K" are complete.Your project to obtain charitable donations is now 30 days into a planned 40-dayproject. The project is divided into 3 activities. The i rst activity is designed to solicitindividual donations. It is scheduled to run the i rst 25 days of the project and to bring in $25,000. Even though we are 30 days into the project, we still see that we have only 90 percent of this activity complete. The second activity relates to company donations and is scheduled to run for 30 days starting on day 5 and extending through day 35. We estimate that, even though we should have 83 percent (25y30) of this activity complete, it is actually only 50 percent complete. This part of the project was scheduled to bring in $150,000 in donations. The i nal activity is for matching funds. This activity is scheduled to run the last 10 days of the project and has not started. It is scheduled to bring in an additional $50,000. So far $175,000 has actually been brought in on the project.

The final activity is for matching funds. This activity is scheduled to run the last 10 days of the project and has not started. It is scheduled to bring in an additional $50,800. So far $176,000 has actually been brought in on the project.
- A project consists of Six activities: A,B,C,D, E, F. A and B have no preceding activities, but activity C requires that activity B must be completed before C can begin. Activity D cannot start until both activities A and B are complete. Activity F can start any time. Activity E requires activities A and C to be completed before it can start. If the activity times are A: 10 days; B: 4 days; C: 8 days; D: 3 days, E = 2 days, and F: 1 day, * Find out the minimum time possible to complete this project. * Are there any critical path activities? Which one are those?Changes in project scope might affect the project’s schedule. Discuss this statement. How would a project manager formally can inform and communicate such adjustments to project stakeholders?Project 1-3: Creating a Project Schedule for Hiring a New EmployeeIn this project, you will create a project schedule for the process of hiring a new employee for your department.

Calculate the Schedule…The project manager must make trade-offs between project progress and process. Conceptually, this involves trade-offs between the __________ functions. a. schedule and cost b. technical and managerial c. cost and performance d. performance and scheduleConsider again the project with the activity network shown in Figure 19.14.Activity A1 takes 4 days; A2, 2 days; A3, 10 days; A4, 4 days; A5, 2 days; A6, 3 days; A7,5 days; and A8, 2 days. Compute the earliest completion time of the project.Answer: 26 days.We start the project with A1 because it has no predecessor activity. A1 will take 4 days, sothe ECT for A1 is 4. Once A1 is complete, we can start on A2. A2 thus has an EST of 4. A2takes 2 days and hence has an ECT of 6.Following the completion of A2, we can initiate A3, A4, and A5. These activities thus canall have an EST of 6. We continue this process as shown in Table 19.13 and find that theearliest completion time is 26 days.
