2004 by Prentice Hall, Inc.,Upper Saddle 3-21 3 activity time estimates Optimistic times (a)Most-likely time (m)Pessimistic time (b) Follow beta distribution Expected time:t= ( a+ 4 m+ b) / 6
Variance of times:v= ( b- a) 2 / 6 Expected project time: T = sum of critical path activity times,t Project variance: V = sum of critical path activity variances Activity Times & Project Activity Times & Project Times Times
Completion Time for Completion Time for Noncritical Activities Noncritical Activities 2004 by Prentice Hall, Inc.,Upper Saddle 3-22
Variability of times for activities on non-critical paths must be considered when determining the probability of finishing in a specified time. Variation in non-critical activity may cause change in critical path.
2004 by Prentice Hall, Inc.,Upper Saddle 3-23 Most activities can be done faster if you pay more money Work overtime / hire more people / rent extra equipment / incentive contracts PERT / CPM have the ability to crash a schedule to shorten activity time in a network to reduce project completion time.
