by reducing the duration of an activity/activities almost always results in higher direct cost. When the duration of a critical activity is reduced, the project’s critical path can be change with other activities and that new path will determine the new project completion date. Following are three options to reducing project duration. Adding Resources: This is a popular method to reduce project time by assigning additional staff and equipment to activities-if it is assessed appropriately. The activities

of coding ability, none of us had prior coding experience before and the only Excel knowledge we know is what TAs taught us in the lab. This problem branched off into many other problems such as disrupting the efficiency of the team because the critical path was delayed at times. All these problems also related back to the original plan because of our infinite view of the problem in the beginning. The big mistake was not taking into account the constraints in the very beginning of the project. Instead

project are crucial to success! Some of the tools used to determine these constraints include networking and determining the critical path of a project, which is the sequence of activities that forms the longest chain in terms of time to complete. Not until these sequences have been
Outcomes are the changes, benefits, learning or other effects that happen as a result of your work (Cupitt and Ellis, 2016). Most importantly, outcomes allow your work to be more effective. This includes identifying what works well and what are the changes for improving the task. Ultimately this aids in using efficiently in order to satisfy consumers’ needs and wants (Cupitt and Ellis, 2016). On the other hand, evaluate means to measure results or outcomes (Endvawnow.org, 2012). For this section
Project Scheduling by Simulation Modelling Technique Ramkumar Harikrishnakumar Wichita State University Abstract In the present scenario of manufacturing, agile manufacturing calls for flexibility in the global market which involves rapid changes. Flexible manufacturing technology such as agent manufacturing plays a vital role to achieve agility in the system. (Yeung, W. 2012) in job shop floor the project scheduling technique provides the dynamic and unique way of dispatching the jobs if there
Nissan Motor Company was one of the first Japanese Automobile companies to build facilities in North America. The company was reborn from crisis. They were rescued from bankruptcy in 1999 by Renault, and this sense of crisis still persists in the organization to this day. After the 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit the coast of Japan on March 11, 2011 Nissan Motor Company, just like they did in 1999 when they faced financial difficulties, focused on identifying and analyzing the risks by establishing
