6.3 Sequence Activities (Schedule MGMT) Flashcards
what is 6.3 sequence activities?
identifying and documenting relationships among project activities
what is the key benefit of 6.3 sequence activities?
defines the logical sequence of work to obtain the greatest efficiency given all project constraints
when is 6.3 sequence activities performed in the project?
throughout
6.3 sequence activities - inputs
- project management plan (2)
- project documents (4)
- EEF
- OPA’s
what project management plan inputs are relevant for 6.3 sequence activities?
a. schedule management plan
b. scope baseline
what project document inputs are relevant for 6.3 sequence activities?
a. activity attributes
b. activity list
c. assumption log
d. milestone list
what are activity attributes?
- defined predecessor or successor relationships
- defined lead and lag and relationships
6.3 sequence activities - tools and techniques
- precedence diagramming method
- dependency determination and integration
- leads and lags
- PMIS
what is precedence diagramming method?
- constructing a schedule model in which activities are represented by nodes
- graphically linked by one or more logical relationship
- show the sequence in which the activities are to be performed
how can dependencies be characterized?
- mandatory or discretionary
2. internal or external
what are mandatory dependencies?
those that are legally or contractually required
what are discretionary dependencies?
- established based on knowledge of best practices
- there may be other acceptable sequences
6.3 sequence activities - outputs
- project schedule network diagrams
2. project document updates (4)
what project document updates are outputs to 6.2 sequence activities?
a. activity attributes
b. activity list
c. assumption log
d. milestone list
