    Study Notes

    Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT)

    • PERT is a network technique used for project planning and scheduling that uses probabilistic activity times.
    • Stochastic PERT is a project scheduling technique that assumes activity times are probabilistic in nature.
    • Deterministic PERT is a project scheduling technique that assumes activity times are known with certainty.
    • Expected Time is the average activity time, and Beta Distribution is a probability distribution used to describe activity times.

    Three Estimates of Activity Time

    • Optimistic Time (a) is a PERT activity time estimate based on the assumption that the activity will take the least amount of time.
    • Most Probable Time (m) is a PERT activity time estimate based on the assumption that the time would occur most frequently.
    • Pessimistic Time (b) is a PERT activity time estimate based on the assumption that the activity will take the most amount of time.

    Activity Timing and Cost

    • Selecting activity A would lead to additional costs of P100 per day, thus the new cost for the project would be: New Cost = 5,800 + 100(2) = P 6,000.00.

    Activity Durations

    • Each activity has a duration in weeks, with optimistic, most probable, and pessimistic times.
    • Activities are dependent on predecessors, with some having multiple predecessors.

    Facility Planning

    • Facility planning is concerned with the design, layout, and accommodation of people, machines, and activities of a system or enterprise within a physical spatial environment.
    • Facilities can be broadly defined as buildings where people, material, and machines come together for a stated purpose.

    Importance of Facility Planning

    • Facilities planning determines how an activity's tangible fixed assets best support achieving the activity's objectives.
    • It is essential for various industries, such as manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation.

    Applications of Facility Planning

    • Facility planning can be applied to planning of various facilities, such as hospitals, assembly departments, warehouses, retail stores, and offices.

    Disciplines Involved in Facility Planning

    • Facility planning involves various disciplines, including civil engineers, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, industrial engineers, architects, consultants, and managers.

    Manufacturing Facility

    • A manufacturing facility is an example of a facility that requires planning to support production.

    Facilities Location

    • Facilities location is determining how the location of a facility supports meeting the facility's objectives.
    • It involves considering the placement of the facility with respect to customers, suppliers, and other facilities.

    Sizing Facilities

    • Sizing facilities involves determining the space required for various areas, such as lounges, restrooms, and locker rooms.
    • The size of these areas is determined by the number of people using them and the activities they will be performing.
