Activity Table (template attached) with Immediate Predecessors and Crash Cost per
Week columns completed.
2. Network Diagram (4 marks)
Prepare a Network Diagram (before crashing) in MS Project of the activities mentioned in
the case so that it is easy to read, goes from left to right in general, and fits on ONE page
(landscape is recommended). See MS Project Tutorial document posted on D2L for details
on how to accomplish this in MS Project. Include a screen picture of your network diagram
from MS Project as a full page in your submission document (symbol legend not necessary).
3. Path Identification (3 marks)
Identify the paths and the length (in weeks) of each path. Specifically identify the critical
path(s).
4. Project Duration & Cost (2 marks)
Without crashing, what is the expected project duration and expected project cost?
5. Project Crashing (15 marks)
You are considering completing this project in the shortest time possible. What is the
fastest the project can be completed, and the associated costs (incremental and total) of
that approach (without incurring any unnecessary costs)? Your solution must indicate the
step by step (one week at a time) order and duration of the crashing of activities so that
the board can choose their preferred combination of cost and schedule.
6. Gantt Chart (3 marks)
Provide a Gantt chart of the shortest possible time(from previous question) in MS
Project. See MS Project Tutorial document posted on D2L for details on how to accomplish
