Activity list has the list of activities to be
performed. Activity attributes has the
additional information about the activities.
Milestone list mark the key achievement
Project scope statement contains the
product description which has the details of
features and functionality. We can relate
the order of the features and functionality
of the product by determining the order of
the activities

4. Tools & techniques: Sequence Activities
Precedence diagramming method (PDM)uses rectangles to represent activities
and connects them using arrows. This tool is also called Activity on node
PDM includes 4 types of logical relationships :
1. Finish to Start – Activity C cannot start unless Activity A has finished
2. Start to Start – Activity B cannot start unless Activity A has started
3. Finish to Finish – Activity B cannot finish unless Activity A has finished
4. Start to Finish - Activity B cannot finish unless Activity A has started
Dependency determination establishes logical relationships as a result of
existing dependencies.
The type of logical relationship possible are:
1. Mandatory or hard logic are the result of inherent nature of work.
Contractual compliance and product limitations are examples

5. Tools & techniques: Sequence Activities
Dependency determination establishes logical relationships as a
result of existing dependencies.
The type of logical relationship possible are:
1. Mandatory or hard logic are the result of inherent nature of
work. Contractual compliance and product limitations are
examples
2. Discretionary or preferential logic dependencies exist as a
result of preferences of project team
3. External dependency indicates that an activity outside of the
project has an effect on the sequence project activities. The
relationship between activities is dependent on the external
event

6. Tools & techniques: Sequence Activities
Applying leads and lags takes into
account any delays or advances between
activities. The delays are called as lags
and advances are called as leads
Lag which is also called as waiting time,
is the amount of delay that exists between
activities
Schedule network templates includes the
templates from previous projects. Sub
network is the portion of the network
from past project

relationships between the activities

8. Introduction: Estimate Activity Resources
Identify the type and quantity of resources needed to
accomplish the activities. Document the details for each
activity
Estimate cost is another process which is closely associated
with this process at an activity level

10. Inputs: Estimate Activity Resources
Activity list contains the list of activities that need to be
performed to accomplish a deliverable
Activity attributes are supporting information about the activity
Activity resource requirements will depend on availability
which is available in resource calendar. Activity resource
requirements will also depend on the skill level

11. Tools & techniques: Estimate Activity Resources
Bottom-up estimating involves
estimating resources of an activity
after it has been decomposed into
smaller levels
Published estimating data includes
known productivity and resource
requirements based on similar past
projects or benchmarking
© 2013 Skillogic Knowledge Solutions. All Rights Reserved11
12. Outputs: Estimate Activity Resources
Activity resource requirements contains the type and quantities
of resources to accomplish the activities
Adding the resources will result in total resources at a work
package level
Resource breakdown structure is a hierarchical breakdown of
the resources by categories

13. Introduction: Estimate Activity Durations
Estimating activity duration requires information on resources
as well as work involved for an activity
This process is about identifying number of work periods to
complete activities

16. Tools & techniques: Estimate Activity
Durations
Three persons guessing is better than one person guessing
Three point estimates uses three values to determine the
duration of an activity using the PERT formula: An
optimistic estimate, a pessimistic estimate, a most likely
estimate

17. Tools & techniques: Estimate Activity
Durations
Parametric estimating uses statistical relationship between past
duration data and variables like number of meters of road, function
point count, etc., to estimate current activity duration
Actual duration of activities of previous projects are used to
estimate duration of activities of current project in Analogous
estimating. This is also called top-down
estimating and used when there is
limited information. Relies on expert
judgment and is reliable when current
project is similar to the previous project.
It is used in the early phases of the
project

18. Tools & techniques: Estimate Activity Durations
Reserve analysis involves taking into consideration time buffers
when estimating duration for activities. Risks which may impact
the schedule should be considered when estimating duration.
This buffer can be calculated based on fixed percentage of
activity duration or based on quantitative risk analysis

19. Introduction: Develop Schedule
This process is all about determining planned start and finish
dates of activities in a project. The planned start and finish date
of activities are dependent on the outputs of time management
planning processes
Developing a schedule is a sequential process
Project schedule normally undergoes multiple iterations of
changes. The approved version of project schedule becomes
the schedule baseline
