Let us revisit the project data are in days (and it is understood that the duration of activity A can be no less than 3 days, in which case it costs $150 instead of $50, and so on and so forth). where all times Normal Normal Crashed Crashed Predecessors Activity A Time Cost Time Cost $50 3 $150 В 4 40 2 200 В 7 70 160 A,C А,С В 2 20 1 50 E 3 30 F 8. 80 5 290 50 4 100 H E,F 60 3 180 The project has been sold at a fixed price to the client provided the project is completed on time, but in case of delays, there is a penalty of $100 for each day in excess of the normal completion time. Work on the project started on time, and the project manager scheduled a meeting with the supervisors in the morning of day 9 in order to monitor progress by the end of day 9 (time now). a) According to the normal project schedule, indicate what percentage of each activity should be completed by the end day 9. b) Suppose the progress reports indicate that activity A was completed on time but activity B will actually take 5 days longer than planned. Indicate what percentage of each activity will actually be completed by the end of day 9. c) Using the crash data, find the optimal way of rescheduling the remainder of the project. What is the revised expected project duration? And revised cost?
