Nikos Anastopoulos of EMPROSS Strategic IT Consultants, leads the development of a new football stadium. He developed the activities, durations, and predecessor relationships in the following table for delivering company valuations. Activity Predecessor Duration in Weeks A - 5 B - 3 C A, B 8 D C 3 E - 4 F E 10 G F 8 H E 18 I D 20 J D, G, I 7 K I 5 L H 10 6A. Draw the Network Diagram, and identify and discuss the project duration and the critical path using the following activity notation: the first pic: First: Draw the precedence diagram. Second: Using the notation given identify the duration of the project: you can type it. Third: identify the critical part and explain the critical path. Fourth: Explain your answer. This can be done by describing the process and the observations done once the answer has been found. 6B. Draw the project’s Gantt chart First: The project’s Gantt chart needs to be done. Second: Explain the Gantt chart by emphasizing the observations made. State your conclusions. this final part is just a repeat but making two varibles time smaller: 6C. Change the time of at least two activities that can reduce the overall project duration, draw the new critical path and the new Gantt chart. First: Repeat 6B by changing the task time of any 2 or 3 tasks that will result in a smaller project duration: Please note that if your able to not just terminal tasks (ending tasks) then its better. Second: identify the critical part and explain it. Explain if the critical path has changed and why? or why not? Third: Explain your answer for the new (shorter) project duration. This can be done by describing the process and the observations done once the answer has been found. Fourth: Draw the new project’s Gantt chart Fifth: Explain the Gantt chart by emphasizing the observations made. State your conclusions.

6A. Draw the Network Diagram, and identify and discuss the project duration and the critical path using the following activity notation:
the first pic:
First: Draw the precedence diagram.
Second: Using the notation given identify the duration of the project: you can type it.
Third: identify the critical part and explain the critical path.
Fourth: Explain your answer. This can be done by describing the process and the observations done once the answer has been found.
6B. Draw the project’s Gantt chart
First: The project’s Gantt chart needs to be done.
Second: Explain the Gantt chart by emphasizing the observations made. State your conclusions.
this final part is just a repeat but making two varibles time smaller:
6C. Change the time of at least two activities that can reduce the overall project duration, draw the new critical path and the new Gantt chart.
First: Repeat 6B by changing the task time of any 2 or 3 tasks that will result in a smaller project duration: Please note that if your able to not just terminal tasks (ending tasks) then its better.
Second: identify the critical part and explain it. Explain if the critical path has changed and why? or why not?
Third: Explain your answer for the new (shorter) project duration. This can be done by describing the process and the observations done once the answer has been found.
Fourth: Draw the new project’s Gantt chart
Fifth: Explain the Gantt chart by emphasizing the observations made. State your conclusions.
