Question:
You are the Director of Projects for About Coffee, and you will be presenting your project plan for the construction of this store to the company President and the project team.
With the land already purchased and detailed drawings complete, you have completed the following activity table
you have developed the following chart with estimates for normal durations and normal costs, in addition to crash costs and crash times, in the event, it would be necessary to accelerate a specific activity.
Question 1)
The project was progressing at normal times, the subcontractor ran into problems erecting the building exterior. One of the two on-site cranes had a hydraulic failure and replacement parts had to be ordered and installed. This meant that all lifting during that time had to be completed by a single crane resulting in a two-week delay for erecting the building exterior. If you want to complete the project in the original "normal" time, what specific actions must you take to minimize costs while still completing the building as originally scheduled?
