This data can also be presented:
 As a PERT chart (see chart on Study Direct).
 As a Gantt chart (discuss in seminar session).

The critical path is: A, C, D, G, H, I, J, K, L The slack (float time) on non-critical tasks is:
Task Slack (float) time in weeks
Estimate of time to completion: 31 weeks.
Risk analysis
Risk 1 Nature
Monitoring
Risk 1 Nature
Mitigation Monitoring
The hardware may not be delivered on time.
Need either up front guarantees, or weekly monitoring updates from the supplier to that we can gauge the likely impact on the project.
Effect of task manager for assembling the development team (task B managed by Nathan) taking a 2-week holiday near the outset of the project.
Convince Nathan to take his holiday in weeks 0 to 4, or after task G has started.
Regular weekly line management meetings between Nathan and Audrey.
Should take 12 weeks, but supplier says could take a further 6 weeks, so 18 weeks maximum. If hardware procurement takes more than 16 weeks, project will be delayed (task has a max float of 4 weeks).
Mitigation
If we started task F (hardware procurement) 2 weeks earlier, then even if the task over-runs we don’t impact of the overall delivery schedule. Could also try to get assurances from supplier, or look to another supplier.
Need to talk to Nathan to determine how likely, but unknown at this stage. Task B has 1 week of slack. As long as task B starts no later than week 5, there would be no effect.
