Case Study : A Not$-$for$-$profit Medical Research Center

CASE QUESTIONS $1.$ Develop an estimated duration for each activity.

$2.$ Using a project start time of $0($or May $15)$ and a required project completion time of $180$ days $($or November $15),$ calculate the ES$,$ EF$,$ LS$,$ and LF times and TS for each activity. If your calculations result in a project schedule with negative TS$,$ revise the project scope, activity estimated durations, and$/$or sequence or dependent relationships among activities to arrive at an acceptable baseline schedule for completing the project within $180$ days $($or by November $15).$ Describe the revisions you made.

$3.$ Determine the critical path, and identify the activities that make up the critical path.

$4.$ Produce a bar chart $($Gantt chart$)$ based on the ES and EF times from the schedule in item $2.$

Case Study : The Wedding

$1.$ Develop an estimated duration for each activity.

$2.$ Using a project start time of $0($or January $1)$ and a required project com$-$pletion time of $180$ days $($or June $30),$ calculate the ES$,$ EF$,$ LS$,$ and LF times and TS for each activity. If your calculations result in a project schedule with negative TS$,$ revise the project scope, activity estimated durations, and$/$or sequence or dependent relationships among activities to arrive at an accept$-$able baseline schedule for completing the project within $180$ days $($or by June $30).$ Describe the revisions you made.

$3.$ Determine the critical path, and identify the activities that make up the crit$-$ical path.

$4.$ Produce a bar chart $($Gantt chart$)$ based on the ES and EF times from the schedule in item $2$
