Project Network and Scheduling with Known Activity Times
Project scheduling
Project scheduling is a way to deliver which tasks need to be done, allocate organisational resources, and determine the timeframe for completing those tasks
Gantt Chart
is like a visual timeline showing when project tasks are scheduled to happen over time
used for project planning
what kind of work is scheduled to be done on specific days
helps project teams view the start dates, end dates, and milestones of a project schedule arranged in stacks
Network diagram
flow from left to right
next activity cannot be started until the before connected activity have been completed
arrow is to indicate the precedence and flow of the project
every activity needs its own unique ID number
Two approaches used to develop project networks
activity-on-arrow (AOA)
activity-on-node (AON)
Forward Pass
Early Finish, EF - earliest time of an activity can be finished
Expected Time,ET - estimate time of the project complection
Early Start, ES - earliest time of an activity can start
Backward Pass
Latest Finish, LF - latest time of an activity has to be finished to avoid delay of project
Slack, SL - the amount of time of a project can be delayed without causing a delay in the overall project complection
Late Start, LS - latest time of an activity can start to avoid delay of PCT
Critical Path, CP - the longest path in the network which can cause delay of the entire project when delay a critical activity
