Case Study: Cell Phone Design Project You work for Motorola in their global cell phone group. You have been made project manager for the design of a new cell phone model. Your supervisors have already scoped the project so you have a list showing the work breakdown structure and this includes major project activities. You must plan the project schedule and calculate project duration and project costs. Your boss wants the schedule and costs on his desk tomorrow moming! You have been given the information in Exhibit 1. It includes all the activities required in the project and the duration of each activity. Also, dependencies between the activities have been identified.

These ser specifications are redefined in terms that have meaning to the subcontractors that will actually make the new cell phone in Task "S" supplier specifications. These involve engineering details for how the product will perform. The individual components that make up the product are the focus of Task "D".
