Project Schedule (Gantt Chart)
• Allocate Team members to activities
• Estimate Work activities
• Gantt Chart method or technique
A Gantt chart technique provides a standard time format for
displaying project schedule information by listing project
activities and their corresponding start and finish dates in
calendar format.
• Communicate progress

Department of Information Systems


Estimation Techniques

• Analogous estimating (similar project


estimation)
• Parametric estimating (historical data
estimation)
• Delphi technique (the expert)
• Bottom up (small to big)
• PERT (most optimistic and pessimistic)

Critical Path Method (CPM)

• The first major task in developing the


project schedule is to identify the critical
path,which is “the sequence of activities
that represents the longest path through
the project, which determines the shortest
possible duration.
• Predict the total duration of the project

Determining the Critical Path for Project X

7
Simple Example to Determine the
Critical Path

C=2 4 E=1
A=2 B=5
start 1 2 3 6 finish

D=7 5 F=2
a. How many paths are on this network diagram?
b. How long is each path?
c. Which is the critical path?
d. What is the shortest amount of time needed to complete this project?
