Recall the four stages • Project Conceptualization and Definition • Project Planning and Budgeting • Project Execution • Project Monitoring and Control • Project Termination and Closeout
Recall the four core knowledge areas Scope Management Time Management Cost Management Quality Management
Recall five processes within the scope knowledge area • 1. Plan Scope Management • 2.Collect Requirements • 3. Define Scope • 4.Create WBS • 5.Validate Scope • 6. Control Scope
Time Management Knowledge Area - Processes • Plan Schedule Management • Define Activities • Sequence Activities • Estimate Activity Durations • Develop Schedule • Control Schedule
Activity Definition • Decomposition –top down…. • What has to happen in order to create a WBS • Composition from the bottom up • Use of a template • A list from a previous project that is similar

Sequence Relationships • Finish/Start • Start/Start • Finish/Finish • Start/Finish
Project Networks • Activity on node • Most popular • Activity on arrow • Not used
From project networks, we determine • The project duration • The critical path • Tasks on the critical path • Tasks not on the critical path • Slack associated with non-critical tasks • Earliest start, earliest finish, latest start and latest finish times
The AON Network A/5 C/5 E/5 B/10 D/20 F/10
Start and Finish Dates ES EF N/K LS LF
Notation • ES – earliest start for the node, assumed to be at the beginning of the day • EF – earliest finish for the node, assumed to be at the end of the day • LS – latest start for the node, assumed to be at the beginning of the day • LF – latest finish for the node, assumed to be at the end of the day • N -- the label of the node (task, step, activity) • K -- the duration of the node ( number following the slash)
Start and Finish Dates ES EF N/K LS LF
Precedence Relations • With FS (FINISH/START) relationships, a successor activity does not start until all of its predecessors are FINISHED
