FTSA Engineering Company won a new project to install the smart efficient

QUESTION 1: 

FTSA Engineering Company won a new project to install the smart efficient solar panels on a newly built building. They have to perform several activities. Following table and network provides information about the project:



(a) Identify all the paths in the network and state their length?

No.

Paths

Length of the Path

1.

 

 

2.

 

 

 

 

 

(b) What is the normal project completion cost?

(c) What is the project completion time? 

(d) State critical path/s in the network?

(e) Assume that the project manger wants to shorten the project by six DAYS. What crashing decisions do you recommend to meet the desired completion time? When tie, must prefer least cost.

To answer part #(e) MUST fill out the given table and MUST support your work separately. 


(f) After completing part (e), fill table below:

 

Trial #2

Trial #5

Number of critical path/s before starting

 

 

 

                                                 

(g) What is the total crashing cost when project is reduced by six DAYS?

(h) After reducing project by six DAYS, identify all the paths in the network and state their length? (Add as many rows you needed)

No.

(i) Can you further reduce the project duration? Yes/No. If ‘No’ Justify why?

(j) You are performing 1st crashing What are options/alternative of activities available that can reduce the project duration by one day, state all  the options/alternative of activities with respective costs.

No.

Hint
BusinessConcentrating photovoltaic technology entails another promising development field. Despite the simple collection and conversion of whatever sunlight using additional optical equipment such as mirrors and lenses to focus more solar energy amounts onto highly effective solar cells this technology is ideal....
