Question

A project manager discovers that his team has neglected to complete the network diagram for the project. the network diagram is shown below. however the project manager has some information available, specifically that each activity a-g, has a different duration between one and seven weeks. also the slack time for each of the activity is known as shown below

Duration (weeks): 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 Slack time (weeks): 0,0,0,1,1,3,7 A D E G B FINISH START C F Using the clues provided below,

Duration (weeks): 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 Slack time (weeks): 0,0,0,1,1,3,7 A D E G B FINISH START C F Using the clues provided below, determine the duration of each activity as well as the early start, early finish, latest start, and latest finish times for each activity. Clues 1. Activity E is the longest duration activity and is on the critical path, which is the unlucky number 13; also, there is only one critical path. 2. The early finish (EF) time for activity F is eleven weeks. 3. The latest start (LS) time for activity Dis nine weeks. 4. If activity A slips by one week, it will be on a critical path.
