ASSIGNMENT

Using the MS Project $2019,$ develop a WBS for AET. Include duration in days and predecessors. $($Hint: use $5$ workdays per week when you convert a week to days$).$

Ordering ventilation system, new racks, and power supplies$/$cables takes only one actual day of work. The remaining days are the time necessary for the vendors to fill and ship the order to Brian. So use finish$-$to$-$start lags here. Assume that five days after the start of the renovation of the data center that the raised floor will be ready for inspection $($a start$-$to$-$start lag$).$

$2$

Notes: The tutorial video for "Entering predecessor information" in MS Project $2019$ intro$-1$ shows how to use the lag for predecessors.

$3.$ Set the project start time on March $1,2010$ and observe the following holidays: Memorial Day $($last Monday in May$),$ July $4{?}^{th},$ Labor Day $($first Monday in September$),$ Thanksgiving Day $(4$th Thursday in November$),$ December $25$ and $26.$

Notes: MS Project $2019$ intro$-2$ provide tutorial videos for change work time and project information.

$4.$ In a WORD file, prepare a memo that answers the following questions based on your schedule:

a$.$ How many working days will it take to finish the project? Which date is the project estimated to be completed?

b$.$ What is the critical path? $($identify activities on critical path$($s$))$

c$.$ Which activity has the most total slack? $($see MS Project $2019$ intro$-2$ for tutorial videos$).$
