Estimating the materials, labor, machines, or supplies needed for a project activity.

Estimating how long an activity will take, considering the resources available.

Creating a plan for project completion, incorporating activity sequences, durations, resource needs, and constraints.

Monitoring project progress, updating status, and managing schedule changes.

Advantages of effective time management, including increased productivity, better reputation, reduced stress, career advancement, and achieving personal goals.

Consequences of poor time management, including missed deadlines, inefficiency, poor quality work, damaged reputation, and career setbacks, higher stress.

Creating dedicated time slots to focus on high-priority thoughts, conversations, and tasks.

Scheduling dedicated time for interruptions or unexpected occurrences.

Processes and activities needed to identify, define, combine, unify, and coordinate various project processes and activities within the project management process groups.

Defining the work required to create a product, service, or result with specific features & functions.

Organizing and planning how to allocate time to specific project activities.

Planning and controlling project costs. (Missing definition in the text)

Ensuring the project meets quality standards. (Missing definition in the text)

Managing the people involved in the project. (Missing definition in the text)

Identifying, analyzing, and responding to project risks. (Missing definition in the text)

Analyzing the probability and impact of identified risks, prioritizing those needing management.

Comparing the risk level with predefined criteria to decide if a risk should be accepted or handled.

A scale used to estimate the chance of a risk event occurring.

A scale used to assess the amount of loss or damage if a risk occurs.

A scale showing how important a risk is and indicates what action needs to be taken.

A method to evaluate a project's worth by comparing its total costs with its potential benefits. It helps determine if the project is worthwhile based on the pros and cons.

A technique that measures the overall benefits of a project using a unified scale, such as quality of life or monetary value. This provides a more detailed analysis than cost-benefit analysis.

A process that helps identify potential risks in a project procurement, allowing for proactive measures to mitigate those risks.

The initial step in project procurement, focusing on documenting procurement decisions, managing procurement strategies, and outlining criteria for selecting vendors.

This process involves selecting and evaluating vendors, obtaining proposals, negotiating contract terms, and ultimately awarding the contract.

This process focuses on maintaining the relationship with the chosen vendor throughout the project, ensuring smooth operation and delivery.

The final stage of procurement, involving the completion of all procurement transactions, contract services, and documentation related to the project.

The process of identifying, analyzing, and engaging with individuals or groups who are impacted by or can impact a project's success. It involves understanding their needs, expectations, and influence.

A method used to determine the earliest start (ES) and earliest finish (EF) times for each activity in a project network.

A method used to determine the latest allowable start (LS) and latest finish (LF) times for each activity in a project network.

The longest path through a project network that determines the shortest possible project duration. Activities on the critical path have zero float.

The earliest time an activity can begin without delaying the project.

The earliest time an activity can be completed based on its earliest start time and duration.

The latest time an activity can start without delaying the project.

The latest time an activity can be completed without delaying the project.

The amount of time an activity can be delayed without affecting the project completion date.

Determining which activities need to be completed and when, ensuring a logical sequence for project execution. It involves breaking down complex tasks into smaller activities, identifying dependencies, estimating activity durations, allocating resources, planning start and end dates, and identifying the critical path.

A visual representation of a project schedule, displaying tasks on a horizontal timeline with their start and end dates. It helps to track progress and identify potential delays.

A hierarchical decomposition of a project into smaller, manageable components or tasks. It helps to define the scope of the project and provide a framework for planning, scheduling, and controlling project activities.

The relationship between project activities where one activity must be completed before another can start. This is essential for determining the logical flow of the project.

A probabilistic project scheduling technique that considers the uncertainty of task durations. It uses three time estimates (optimistic, pessimistic, and most likely) to calculate the expected time and variance for each activity.

A technique for accelerating project completion by reducing the duration of critical activities, often by adding resources or changing the work method. It should be carefully evaluated to ensure the overall cost and quality of the project are not negatively affected.

A visual representation of project activities, showing their sequence and dependencies. It uses nodes to represent activities and arrows to show the relationships between them.
