Question: The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Gantt Chart below are meant to describe the process for a simple office renovation. Five outside people are involved
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Gantt Chart below are meant to describe the process for a simple office renovation. Five outside people are involved in this renovation: a furniture person, a cabinet person, a flooring person, a technology person, and a carpenter. Each worker may only work 8 hours per day and may not work on Saturday or Sundays. There are several issues with the WBS and Gantt Chart. (It is permissible to download the image to your computer so that you can zoom to better see some details.) For the items below, indicate whether they are ok as is or need to be corrected in order for the project to be successful. (Assume that 1 day = 8 hours)


Answers for each are Yes, this item is correct or No, this needs to be corrected
1.All workers are assigned to their proper skill area.
2. Line 2 "Remove existing furniture" is sequenced correctly.
3. Line 15 "Install new furniture" can for sure happen without conflict.
4. Line 10 "Painting of walls and ceiling" has a correct dependency.
5. Line 14 "Install office computers, copiers, fax and phones" has the correct dependency.
6. The furniture person is scheduled no more than 8 hours per day.
7. The carpenter is scheduled for no more than 8 hours per day.

11. There are currently days when workers are performing tasks at the job site simultaneously but they don't conflict.
