  • @zoomingby
    @zoomingby Před rokem +1

    I don't understand something. At around 6:30 for task #14 you specify predecessors 8,11,13 but if 13 already depends on 11 being done why list 8, 11? Why not just have 13 as the sole predecessor? Your systems seems to suggest that if a late stage task required hundreds of tasks to have been completed beforehand, that each and every one should be listed as a predecessor.

    • @raja21be
      @raja21be Před 8 měsíci

      @zoomingby: The materials required for building the platform are different than those needed to cut wood... hence the predecessor needs to include 11 as well. In the same way, the finalize design is to be completed before the platform work can begin.. and hence the predecessor 8.
      I hope it clarifies.

    Not really professional. The cost cannot be calculated during the EVM calculation, and you will get the wrong forecast. Instead, the cost rate should be used as a cost per use or Fixed cost after you get the correct EAC
