BY ATTEMPTING THIS ASSESSMENT YOU ARE CONFIRMING THAT YOU ARE FIT TO DO SO Q2 continued a) Describe in outline, the process and structure of how the above Information could be used to construct a project schedule (Gantt chart) using a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and common software package such as Microsoft Project. Include reference to how the Gantt Chart could be used to monitor actual and future performance. [6 marks] b) Using the initial logical network structure as a foundation, develop an Activity on Node (AoN) diagram and identify the minimum project duration. [6 marks] c) Provide a schedule (Gantt chart) for the project, based upon an early start assumption. Clearly 4 marks [4 marksl indicate the critical path and show the float available for the non-critical activities. d) Provide a resource requirement histogram based upon the early start assumption. e) Identify the implications of the above analysis for this XYZ Logistics project and describe how you might approach adjustment of the schedule to provide a feasible and effective implementation. N.B. It is not necessary to re-work the schedule in detail [5 marks Q2. XYZ Logistics has initiated a large capital project to relocate its office and distribution facilities. It has identified a project team and approach, but now requires the development of a high-level project plan. A series of key activities have been identified and a logical network diagram for the proposed project has been developed. Project task information is provided in the following table Table 1) and the initial logical network diagram (Figure 1) has been additionally outlined. Notes . The estimated cost of tasks is assumed to accrue (i.e. be liable) at the end of the tasks it is associated with Resource (XYZ) is a special Company resource and is strictly limited to five units.Table 1 Activity Duration Resource Estimated Cost (Days) Requirement of Activity (XYZ) (1,000s) 50 100 20 80 40 10 20 10 20 Fiqure 1 BY ATTEMPTING THIS ASSESSMENT YOU ARE CONFIRMING THAT YOU ARE FIT TO DO SO Q2 continued a) Describe in outline, the process and structure of how the above Information could be used to construct a project schedule (Gantt chart) using a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and common software package such as Microsoft Project.
