Introduction 1Introduction 1
• The unit will cover several methods– Precedence analysis– Gantt Charts– PERT / CPA
• On Arrow Networks• Precedence Networks
• Also …..– Microsoft Project will be covered in labs
• This is based on Gantt Charts and Precedence Networks

Introduction 2Introduction 2
– Activity Planning will help to:• ensure that the appropriate resources will be available
precisely when required• avoid different activities competing for the same
resource at the same time• produce a detailed schedule showing which staff carry
out each activity• Produce a detailed plan against which actual
achievement may be measured• produce a timed forecast• re-plan the project during its life to correct drift from a
target

Precedence analysisPrecedence analysis
• Must be done before an activity plan can be produced
• Reviews the activities that are to be carried out
• Decides what activities must be carried out before particular activity can start

Gantt ChartsGantt Charts
• Developed by Henry Gantt, around 1917
• Gantt charts are easy to use and produce
• They are very useful for use on less complex projects
• Commonly used due to there simplicity
• Gantt charts are easily understood and easy to read

TerminologyTerminology
• Activity– A specific task, uses resources takes time to
complete
• Event– The result of completing an activity– Events use no resources– They are instances in time, points on the
network, conditions of a system that can be recognised
![Page 14: University of Sunderland CIFM02 Unit 2 COMM02 Activity Planning Unit 2](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051621/5697bfd81a28abf838caef8c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
University of Sunderland CIFM02 Unit 2
TerminologyTerminology
• Network– The combination or all activities (often drawn as
lines) and events (often drawn as nodes at the beginning and end of each line) defines the project and the activity precedence relationship.
– Arrow heads placed on the lines indicate the direction of flow. Before and an event can be realised all the activities that immediately precede it must be completed
![Page 15: University of Sunderland CIFM02 Unit 2 COMM02 Activity Planning Unit 2](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051621/5697bfd81a28abf838caef8c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
University of Sunderland CIFM02 Unit 2
TerminologyTerminology
• Path– The series of connected activities (or
intermediate events) between any two events in a network
• Critical– Activities, events, or paths, which, if delayed, will
delay the completion of the project– A project’s critical path is understood to mean
that sequence of critical activities (and critical events) that connect the project’s start event to its finish event

• Precedence network also known as Activity on Node
• Becoming more common as it is used by many project planning software packages
• Often preferred by project managers
