Tutorial – 3

1. A Social Project manager is faced with a project with the following activities:

 Draw the arrow diagram, using the helpful numbering of the activities, which suggests the following
logic: Unless the Social Work team lives in the village, the Mother and Child Health Programme
cannot be started due to ignorance and superstition of the villagers
 The Analysis of the survey can obviously be done only after the survey is complete. Until rural survey
is done, the Rural Credit Programme cannot be started Unless Mother and Child Programme is
established, the Immunisation of Under Fives cannot be started
o Calculate the Earliest and Latest Event Times
o Tabulate and Analyse the Activities
o Schedule the Project Using a Gantt Chart

2. Consider the following activity table to solve the following questions using CPM.

a. Identify the critical path


b. What is the total time required to complete the project if no delay occurs?
c. When do the individual activities need to start and finish to this project completion time?
d. For the other activities, how much delay can be tolerated without delaying project completion?

3. Consider the following activity diagram and table to solve the following questions
a. Find the critical path using CPM
b. Find the slack time for each activity.
c. Find the mean critical path.
d. Find the estimate of the mean and variance of the duration of each activity.
e. Find the approximate probability that project may complete in 100 weeks.

4. Consider the following activity tables to solve the following questions using PERT.

Table 1 Table 2

Use the mean critical path to find the


approximate probability that the advertising
campaign will be ready to launch within 57 days.

C followed by A
D followed by B
E followed by C, D
F followed by B

Given the uncertainties in accurately estimating


activity durations, what is the probability of
completing the project by the deadline of 47
weeks?
