path and the critical activities along this path in a project network; the project completion time can't be shorter than the duration of this longest path unless such techniques as time crashing are used. PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique) incorporates probabilistic elements into the computation of activity durations and hence the project completion time; PERT uses optimistic (o), most probable (m), and pessimistic (p) activity times to estimate the expected activity times. Expected time

in the diagram and their lengths, 2) indicate which is the critical path, 3) work out the ES, EF, LS, LF for each activity, 4) what are the slack times for each activity?

Why map your process? The flowcharts in procedures and quality manual show how the process should be. Process mapping is the detailed be mapping of the real process. Process maps: • Bring clarity to complex processes • Highlight non-value adding activities • Start the process of thinking about improvements Versions of a map Any Process Has At Least Three Versions What You THINK It Is What It ACTUALLY Is Hidden work What it SHOULD Be What the procedure says What the operator does

would be the activity-on-the-arrow diagramming, because each element is represented with a different symbol. I, personally, think that the activity-in-the-box approach is all so usable because the words are boxed off, so you are not going to get things mixed up that easily, unless you are stupid, just saying. 3. Alright, this was a little difficult. I will attempt to explain my findings. I figured the following: * Earliest start time: 19 days * Earliest finish time: 18 days (how this happened
