Project Planning (Part III) Lecture 7

This document provides information about project planning, specifically conducting forward and backward passes on a network diagram. It defines different relationship types used in network diagrams like finish-to-start, start-to-start, and finish-to-finish. Examples are given to demonstrate how to perform forward and backward passes to determine earliest and latest dates. An exercise is included with a sample project plan to answer questions about project end date, impact of delays, and effects on subsequent activities.
