Question: Part 1 ( 5 0 points ) : Solve the network for the Roadrunner soccer team project. See page 3 for the project information. Note:

Part 1(50 points): Solve the network for the Roadrunner soccer team project. See page 3 for the project
information. Note: Save your MS Project file (Part 1) to show results and submit it for grading (required).
Enter the activities, predecessor information, activity duration, and solve the network using MS
Project (10 points).
Identify the critical path (10 points)________________________________
How long will the project take? (10 points)__________________________
Which activity(s) have the maximum slack and the minimum slack? Indicate both free slack and total
slack (10 points)____________________________________________________________________

Part 2(50 points): Use the network from Part 1 and assign the resource, Engineer, (2) to all activities (200%),
except for Program B (ID=F), which needs three Engineers (300%). Assign a cost of $ 180/hr to this resource
(Max.3 Engineers). Save your MS Project file (Part 2) and submit it for grading (required).
Use the Task/Resource Sheet option to define the resource, then go to the Resource tab to assign the
resource to all activities. (Max 3 Engineers or 300%). Which activities are over allocated? (10 points)

Use the Resource Graph view to identify the any resource overallocation. What is the maximum level
of overallocation and on which days such overallocation of resources occur? Assume the project starts
today (must pick any day when this assignment is open)(10 points).

Solve the overallocation using the time-constrained method. Could we solve the overallocation issues?
What happened to the critical path? Explain (10 points).

Solve the overallocation using the resource-constrained method. How many days was the project
delayed to find a solution? What happened to the critical path? Explain 10 points).
