Case 6.2 Ventura Baseball Stadium-Part A The G&E Company is preparing a bid to build the new 47,000-seat Shoreline baseball stadium. The construction must start on June 10, 2019, and be completed in time for the start of the 2022 season. A penalty clause of $500,000 per day of delay beyond April 3rd is written into the contract. Percival Young, the president of the company, expressed optimism at obtaining the contract and revealed that the company could net as much as $5 million on the project. He also said that if they were successful, the prospects of future projects would be bright, since there is a projected renaissance in building classic ball parks with modern luxury boxes. ASSIGNMENT Given the information provided in Table 6.3, construct a network schedule for the stadium project and answer the following questions: 1. Can the project be completed by the April 3rd deadline? How long will it take? 2. What is the critical path for the project? 3. Based on the schedule, would you recommend that G&E pursue this contact? Why? Include a one-page Gantt chart for the stadium schedule.
