Family Planning Research Center of Nigeria Case Study The PERT/CPM Results can now be viewed.

Family Planning Research Center of Nigeria Case Study Discussion Questions 1. Some of the tasks in this project can be done in parallel. Prepare a diagram showing the required network of tasks and define the critical path. What is the length of the project without crashing? This diagram shows the network of tasks. The critical path is highlighted in red. The critical path activities are C,H,I,J,K. The length of the project without crashing is 67 days.

Family Planning Research Center of Nigeria Case Study Discussion Questions At this point can the project be done given the Personnel constraint of 10 persons? The project cannot be done with the personnel constraint of 10 persons. Because several tasks will be run simultaneously the staffing needs exceed 10 persons. To complete the task it would be ideal to have 24 people.

Family Planning Research Center of Nigeria Case Study Discussion Questions If the critical path is longer than 60 days, what is the least amount that Dr. Watage can spend and still achieve this schedule objective? How can he prove to Pathminder that this is the minimum-cost alternative? The critical path is 67 days. To achieve the 60 days goal Dr Watage can spend $400 to crash activity I by five days and $100 to crash activity C by two days. He can prove that this is the minimum cost alternative with the results from QM.
