The project schedule is a calendar that links the tasks to be done with the resources that will do them. It is the core of the project plan used to show the organization how the work will be done, commit people to the project, determine resource needs, and used as a kind of checklist to make sure that every task necessary is performed.
The precedence diagram method (PDM) is a tool for scheduling activities in a project plan. It is a method of constructing a project schedule network diagram that uses boxes, referred to as nodes, to represent activities and connects them with arrows that show the dependencies. It is also called the activity-on-node (AON) method.
If that activity time is for the first work center, then schedule the job first. If that activity time is for the second work center then schedule the job last. Break ties arbitrarily. Eliminate the shortest job from further consideration. Repeat steps 2 and 3, working towards the center of the job schedule until all jobs have been scheduled.
A Gantt chart showing three kinds of schedule dependencies (in red) and percent complete indications. Henry Gantt, inventor of the Gantt chart. A Gantt chart is a bar chart that illustrates a project schedule. [1] It was designed and popularized by Henry Gantt around the years 1910–1915.
A schedule generated using the critical path techniques often is not realized precisely, as estimations are used to calculate times: if one mistake is made, the results of the analysis may change. This could cause an upset in the implementation of a project if the estimates are blindly believed, and if changes are not addressed promptly.
Critical path drag is a project management metric used to schedule analysis and compression in the critical path method of scheduling. Drag cost is the reduction in the expected return on investment for a project due to an activity's or constraint's critical path drag. It is often used to justify additional resources that cost less than the ...
