346 Chapter 9. Project Scheduling 9.6 Consider the tasks in Problem 5. Assume that the project scope has been changed and as a result of this new activi- ties have been added to the project. Estimated durations for each of the tasks have also been added. As the project manager, you have been asked to redevelop your network activity diagram to include the following information: Activity Predecessors Duration (Days) on - I GH a. Identify all burst activities and merge activities. b. Calculate the forward and backward pass on the net- work diagram. What is the estimated total duration of the project? c. Which is the critical path for the project? d. Which activities have slack time? Part Two Ture or false (1*10=10) 1 Projects are developed to resolve a clear goal or set of goals. 2 Stakeholders include people who monitor regulations, laws, and standards of practice at local, county, state, and federal levels. 8/11 BBA PM 3 The emergence of global markets has made project management skills more critical. 4 Scope reporting not only identifies the type of information that will be reported, but also to whom it will be reported and with what frequency. 5 Project schedule is only constraints by scope, cost, and schedule. 6 Network diagrams usually flow from left to right. 7 Looping, or recycling through activities, is permitted in Network diagramming 8 Until a project has gone through work breakdown structure, it is impossible to determine the relationships among the constituent activities. 9 Quality planning should be performed in parallel with the other planning processes. 10 Project manager can lower the quality of the project if there is limited time and cost
