NOTIONALACTIVITY DURATION SCHEDULE

NotionalActivity estimated Duration

The estimated total elapsed time for how long an activity will take from starts to finish, including associated waiting time. Also referred to as activity resource estimated or estimated activity resources.

PROJECT QUESTIONS & TASKS

1.Provide aproject objectiveassociated with the Astin Martin Graphics project. Include a list ofassumptionsabout the project.

2.What is a work breakdown structure? What is a responsibility matrix?Using the Astin Martin projectactivity list and activity duration schedule, create WBS and RAM.

Copy yourWork Breakdown Structurehere.

Copy yourResponsibility Assignment Matrixhere.

(Example RAMTemplate)

3.Create network diagram(graphical diagram)that shows the sequence and dependent relationships identified in the Astin Martin project activity list and activity duration schedule.

4.(Major)Using the project start time and the required completion dateand the project activity list and activity duration schedule,calculate the ES, EF, LS, and LF times and total slack for each activity. Show results in table form. If your calculations result in a project schedule with negative total slack, revise the project scope, activity estimated durations, and/or sequence or dependent relationships among activities to arrive at an acceptable baseline schedule for completing the project within the required time line. Describe (including tables) the revisions you made.

(Example Template)

5.(Major)Listallactivity costs. From theproject activity list and activity duration schedule, estimate the cost of each activity. Then, determine the Total Budgeted Cost (TBC) for the Astin Martin Graphics project.Provide the information in table format by month.Objective evidence of derived costs is required for credit. Use labor and overhead rates as provided in your derived calculations.
