Question: Construct a project network diagram for the stadium project, displaying activity ID, duration, earliest start, earliest finish, latest start, latest finish, and slack for each
Construct a project network diagram for the stadium project, displaying activity ID, duration, earliest start, earliest finish, latest start, latest finish, and slack for each activity. Assume that the final activity in the diagram will have the same earliest finish and latest finish.
Develop the Gantt chart schedule for the project to determine its estimated completion date. (Note: the template provided already has weekends and holidays removed and will start on January 3, 2017.)
Prepare a memo that answers the following questions:
Will the project as planned meet the October 25, 2017 deadline?
What activities lie on the critical path?
How sensitive is this network?



You are the assistant project manager to Rassy Brown, who is in charge of the Nightingale project. Nightingale was the code name given to the development of a handheld electronic medical reference guide. Nightingale would be designed for emergency medical technicians and paramedics who need a quick reference guide to use in emergency situations. Rassy and her project team were developing a project plan aimed at producing 30 working models in time for MedCON, the biggest medical equipment trade show each year. Meeting the MedCON October 25, 2017 deadline was critical to success. All the major medical equipment manufacturers demonstrated and took orders for new products at MedCON. Rassy had also heard rumors that competitors were considering developing a similar product, and she knew that being first to market would have a significant sales advantage. Besides, top management made funding contingent upon developing a workable plan for meeting the MedCON deadline. The project team spent the morning working on the schedule for Nightingale. They started with the WBS and developed the information for a network, adding activities when needed. Then the team added the time estimates they had collected for each activity. Following is the preliminary information for activities with duration time and predecessors. x AutoSave \begin{tabular}{ll:l:l|l} A1 & & fx & PMT472L 3.2 CASE STUDY: NIGHTINGALE PROJECT - PART A \end{tabular} 4 You are the assistant project manager to Rassy Brown, who is in charge of the Nightingale project.
