Document Content and Description Below

Contains 4 Questions (Attempt=2/3) Module 4 Exam 1) Consider the differences between the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) and Arrow Diagram Method (ADM) network schedules. Which of th... e following is a true statement? 4.4 pg. 59 of 73 PERT uses an "Activity-on-Node" method while ADM uses an "Activity-on-Arrow" method. PERT uses three time estimates while ADM uses only one time estimate. PERT uses one time estimate while ADM uses three time estimates. PERT uses an "Activity-on-Arrow" method while ADM uses an "Activity-on-Node" method. 2) Which schedule time constraint solution is best used when the project has some flexibility in the end date and a longer time to complete the project can be accommodated? Shortening task durations for tasks on the critical path Accepting a longer length of time for the project Conducting some tasks concurrently "Crashing" the schedule 3) How does the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) relate to the Integrated Master Plan (IMP)? 4.2 pg. 23 of 28 (VERBATIM) The IMS is traceable to the IMP and is a time-based extension of the tasks identified in the IMP. The IMS identifies the time frames to be used in the development of the IMP. The IMP is a high-level document that identifies the tasks to be accomplished while the IMS breaks down the tasks into actionable items. 1 10162551 1 10162565 1 10162518 1 The IMS provides a more detailed description of the tasks identified in the IMP. 4) Which of the following is the correct order of the process for building a Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM) schedule? 4.9 pg. 46 of 50 Estimate task durations, determine resource requirements, identify the tasks, sequence the tasks, construct schedules, monitor and control schedules Identify the tasks, sequence the tasks, determine resource requirements, estimate task durations, construct schedules, monitor and control schedules Identify the tasks, sequence the tasks, estimate task durations, determine resource requirements, monitor and control schedules, construct schedules Determine resource requirements, identify the tasks, sequence the tasks, estimate task durations, monitor and control schedules, construct schedules 10162578 1 [Show More]
