4 4 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. PERT/CPM n PERT and CPM have been used to plan, schedule, and control a wide variety of projects: R&D of new products and processes R&D of new products and processes Construction of buildings and highways Construction of buildings and highways Maintenance of large and complex equipment Maintenance of large and complex equipment Design and installation of new systems Design and installation of new systems

5 5 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. PERT/CPM n PERT/CPM is used to plan the scheduling of individual activities that make up a project. n Projects may have as many as several thousand activities. n A complicating factor in carrying out the activities is that some activities depend on the completion of other activities before they can be started.

6 6 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. PERT/CPM n Project managers rely on PERT/CPM to help them answer questions such as: What is the total time to complete the project? What is the total time to complete the project? What are the scheduled start and finish dates for each specific activity? What are the scheduled start and finish dates for each specific activity? Which activities are critical and must be completed exactly as scheduled to keep the project on schedule? Which activities are critical and must be completed exactly as scheduled to keep the project on schedule? How long can noncritical activities be delayed before they cause an increase in the project completion time? How long can noncritical activities be delayed before they cause an increase in the project completion time?

7 7 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. Project Network n A project network can be constructed to model the precedence of the activities. n The nodes of the network represent the activities. n The arcs of the network reflect the precedence relationships of the activities. n A critical path for the network is a path consisting of activities with zero slack.

8 8 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. Example: Franks Fine Floats Franks Fine Floats is in the business of building elaborate parade floats. Frank and his crew have a new float to build and want to use PERT/CPM to help them manage the project. The table on the next slide shows the activities that comprise the project. Each activitys estimated completion time (in days) and immediate predecessors are listed as well. Frank wants to know the total time to complete the project, which activities are critical, and the earliest and latest start and finish dates for each activity.

11 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. Earliest Start and Finish Times n Step 1: Make a forward pass through the network as follows: For each activity i beginning at the Start node, compute: Earliest Start Time = the maximum of the earliest finish times of all activities immediately preceding activity i. (This is 0 for an activity with no predecessors.) Earliest Start Time = the maximum of the earliest finish times of all activities immediately preceding activity i. (This is 0 for an activity with no predecessors.) Earliest Finish Time = (Earliest Start Time) + (Time to complete activity i ). Earliest Finish Time = (Earliest Start Time) + (Time to complete activity i ). The project completion time is the maximum of the Earliest Finish Times at the Finish node.

13 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. Latest Start and Finish Times n Step 2: Make a backwards pass through the network as follows: Move sequentially backwards from the Finish node to the Start node. At a given node, j, consider all activities ending at node j. For each of these activities, i, compute: Latest Finish Time = the minimum of the latest start times beginning at node j. (For node N, this is the project completion time.) Latest Finish Time = the minimum of the latest start times beginning at node j. (For node N, this is the project completion time.) Latest Start Time = (Latest Finish Time) - (Time to complete activity i ). Latest Start Time = (Latest Finish Time) - (Time to complete activity i ).

15 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. Determining the Critical Path n Step 3: Calculate the slack time for each activity by: Slack = (Latest Start) - (Earliest Start), or Slack = (Latest Start) - (Earliest Start), or = (Latest Finish) - (Earliest Finish). = (Latest Finish) - (Earliest Finish).

17 Slide © 2006 Thomson South-Western. All Rights Reserved. n Determining the Critical Path A critical path is a path of activities, from the Start node to the Finish node, with 0 slack times. A critical path is a path of activities, from the Start node to the Finish node, with 0 slack times. Critical Path: A – C – E – G Critical Path: A – C – E – G The project completion time equals the maximum of the activities earliest finish times. The project completion time equals the maximum of the activities earliest finish times. Project Completion Time: 18 days Project Completion Time: 18 days Example: Franks Fine Floats
