Q1 You are working on a project, which comprises the following tasks, shown in Table 1: Table 1: Tasks and completion data Task A B C D E F G H 1 J Start Finish Total Number of day 1 2 4 6 7 7 00 8 11 12 15 day time workers Predecessors Complete 3 3 2 None 100% 5 None 100% 2 A 100% 4 C 25% 1 A,B 25% B 100% E 0% F 0% H 0% D,I 0% 6 5 9 7 8 11 11 14 18 2 4 1 3 4 1 2 2 1 1 1 3 2 2 Time spent (worker-days) 4 5 3 5 1 1 0 OO 0 0 (a) Identify the tasks that have slack, and how much slack each of them has. (b) Identify the tasks that lie on the critical path. (c) You have just finished day#7, and have completed Tasks A, B, C and F. You have also partially completed tasks D and E, as shown in Table 1. Using the earned value methodology, write 1-2 paragraphs giving your analysis of how the project is currently faring. Incorporate EVM metrics where appropriate. You may assume that workers are paid at a standard rate, and that this is the only major cost you need to consider.
