4. Assume that there is a maximum of eight resource hours per week available for the

o.
rs e
ou urc
project. Can you identify any weeks that have resource overcommitments?

Solution:
o

After reviewing the previous resource-loading table we can conclude that the resources
aC s
vi y re

are overcommitted in the weeks 11 and 12 by three hours each, compare to the average of

8 hours per week.
