Specification and Scheduling: Case Study Report on the Pan African Transport Fleet Renewal Project Projects get talked about quite a lot these days. Per Dennis (Lock‚ 2007)projects date back before the 1900’s when project planning tools like the Gantt charts were in use. In the1950s when computer use became pretty expansive‚ project planning and scheduling tools were developed. Projects differ in size‚ scope‚ cost and time. There are now big international projects requiring millions of dollars to

with a visual depiction helps the team understand the relationships of tasks in a project. Two of the most common charts used in project management are the Gantt and PERT charts. The purpose of these charts is to assist with project scheduling and illustrate task dependencies. Another tool that can be used is the critical path method (CPM). 1.Research and define PERT‚ CPM‚ and Gantt relative to project planning‚ scheduling‚ and control. 2.Respond to the following: ◦What are the advantages and

SCHEDULES WITH PERT/CPM CHARTS Chapter 3 of Systems Analysis and Design in a Changing World explains the techniques and steps required to build a project schedule using the Gantt chart view in MS Project. This appendix provides a similar explanation of how to build a project schedule‚ but it is based on using a PERT/CPM chart or diagram for the schedule format. A Gantt chart and a PERT/CPM chart both provide essentially the same information about project activities and tasks. Each chart has unique strengths

specifying and allocating tasks between resources. We start on project scheduling by defining tasks and subtasks and estimating the duration and dependencies of each task. The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is as shown as in Table 9.1 below. Referring to this WBS we manage to create a Gantt Chart which shows the project schedule in it’s timeline. We also generate the Network Diagram and identify critical path‚ to make sure we are more concern on certain critical tasks. In order to divide the tasks
