Successful completion of a construction project depends on the supply of materials and labor as well as the weather condition. Consider a given project that can be successfully completed if either one of the following conditions prevails: (i) Good weather and at least labor ormaterials are adequately available, (ii) Bad weather but both labor and materials are adequately available.Define:G = Good weatherG' = Bad weatherL = Adequate labor supplyM = Adequate materials supplyC = Successful completionSuppose P(L) = 0.7; P(G) = 0.6 and L is independent of both M and G. If the weather is good, adequate supply of materials is guaranteed, whereas the probability of adequate supply of material is only 50% if bad weather prevails.a. Formulate the event of successful completion in terms of G, L, and M.b. Determine the probability of successful completion.c. If the project was successfully completed, what is the probability that labor supply had been inadequate?
Replenishment planning helps to determine what materials are to be procured and when.
