Habitat for Humanity – Simulation 1. When the project first started, you were asked to order the tasks to build the WBS. How did you decide the order tasks should appear in for the WBS? In a typical project, how do you think a WBS should be created, and what stakeholders or team members should be involved? Answer – The approach that I took for ordering tasks is to order them in the sequence of work that would generally be completed, so buying the supplies would come before installing them

original project plan. 4. Analysis * Schedule: The positive schedule variance and SPI above 1.0 indicates the project is ahead of schedule; however, the critical path for this project is A - C - E, and CP tasks are significantly behind schedule (SPI for A = 0.80). Be careful when analyzing project totals for SPI, as the critical path is not taken directly into consideration. * Budget: The project is currently significantly over budget (CPI = 0.78) by 27.5% where CV / EV = $ over budget

Teradyne’s 45-year-history. It had set out to create an entirely new semiconductor test-system platform. The resulting Ultra Flex system, designed to be flexible enough to allow customers to test a full range of semiconductor devices, was critical to the success of Teradyne’s new competitive strategy. The Jaguar project had marked a culmination of sorts in Teradyne’s eight-year effort to improve its product development process. The Jaguar team had used a number of project management

completion time. Show the critical path. What would happen if activity 6 were revised to take six weeks instead of one week? 8. Construct a Gantt chart for the project defined in question 7. 12. Assume that you have a project with seven activities labeled A-G (below). Derive the earliest completion time (or early finish – EF), latest completion time (or late finish – LF), and slack for each of the following tasks (begin at time = 0). Which tasks are on the critical path? Draw a Gantt chart
