Exam 6: Developing a Project Plan

What are the eight rules to follow in developing project networks?

___________ reflects the likelihood the original critical path(s) will change once the project is initiated.

What is total slack and how do you determine it?

In a project network, ________ indicate precedence and flow.

The ________ approach to creating project networks has come to dominate most projects.

An activity includes only one work package.

What is the Concurrent Engineering Approach and why should project managers be aware of it?

Which of the following will correctly calculate the total slack in an activity?

The minimum amount of time a dependent activity must be delayed to begin or end is referred to as:

By definition, the critical path always has zero slack.

Different activities along the same path can have different total slack.

A (n) ________ represents a point in time when an activity is started or completed and does not consume time.

An activity is on the critical path if its ________ is the lowest in the network.

An AON project network uses which of the following basic building blocks?

The critical path is the shortest path through a network and indicates activities that cannot be delayed without delaying the project.

Using a special color copy machine for a tradeshow publication illustrates the concept of

Concurrent engineering is a good example of good use of

Which of the following correctly calculates the early finish for an activity?

A sequence of connected, dependent activities is termed a(n)

A/an _________ activity has more than one dependency arrow flowing from it.
