- Create either a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) of the project or Gantt Chart for planning and scheduling the project. Discuss why you used the type of chart you did.
- Determine and document both probabilistic (t0, tp, and tm) and deterministic time estimates. Discuss how you arrived at these time estimates.
- Using MS Word, Google Docs, or similar software, create a PERT network diagram with the Critical Path (CP) identified.
- Calculate the slack time for each activity. Discuss the ramifications of slack in the CP for the activities and the project as a whole.
- Develop the network diagram from the probability estimates. Discuss which path you would take and why.
- For each activity, determine hypothetical costs in a table. Include budgeted costs, percent complete, actual/projected cost, and over/under budget (and total). Discuss the rationale for how you derived these costs.
- Crash an activity on the Critical Path. Discuss the ramifications of crashing the activity you crashed.
Directions:–
-Write an essay that includes an introduction paragraph, the essay’s body, and a conclusion paragraph to address the assignment’s guide questions. Do not address the questions using a question-and-answer format.
