Below are seven factors that must be considered before finalizing a schedule. Explain how a base case schedule can change as a result of each of these . Introduction or acceptance of the product in the marketplace . Present or planned manpower availability . Economic constraints of the project . Degree of technical difficulty . Manpower availability . Availability of personnel training . Priority of the project SOLUTION A. Some products must be introduced into the marketplace only in specific months; i.e., automobiles. B. Problems on other projects may have a serious impact on man power availability for your project, or a shift in your base case may result in a lack of available manpower when needed. C. A shift in the base case may cause a shift in the cash flow of the project and company, or vice-versa. D. Some companies plan projects knowing that their line groups just do not constrain the desired technical expertise. E. Personnel training at the beginning of a project, or even before the project begins, may ease problems for the project manager. Project managers are not happy conducting on-the-job training on their projects. F. Frequent priority shifts are catastrophic. Some companies go so far as to shift these priorities on a weekly basis
