Network Planning techniques Flashcards
The work breakdown structure is the tool for project management to:
• to analyze the project consistently,
• to structure the project systematic,
sufficiently accurate, reproducible and
comprehensively,
• to check the completeness of the project
scope at all times,
• to make the factual connections between
the subtasks transparent,
• assign the responsibilities of the parties
involved in the project to the corresponding
structure levels,
• to be able to insert details as the level of
information increases as the project
progresses.
The work breakdown structure is the basis for
project controlling in order to
• ensure transparency of project parameters
in meaningful summarization/detailing stages,
• to systematize reporting in a decisionoriented
and user-oriented manner,
• ensure an early, targeted response to
disruptions in workflows, delays in deadlines,
capacity bottlenecks and budget overruns,
• ensure forward-looking, future-oriented
project management based on regular
assessments of risks as the project
progresses,
• effect learning processes on the basis of
systematic post-calculations and analyses of
completed projects.
What are the components of a work breakdown structure?
- Project

Definition of Network planning
The network is the graphic representation of flow structures that
illustrates the logical and chronological sequence of predecessors.“
What are the different ways of visualization for Network diagrams?
- AON (Activity on node network)
- ADM (arrow network / arrow diagram)
- ENN (Event node network)
