Operations management H7
Project = interrelated set of activities with a definite starting and ending point, which
results in a unique outcome for a specific allocation of resources (set van
activiteiten met een begin en een eind)
Project management = a systemized, phased approach to defining organizing,
monitoring, and controlling projects

2. Selecting the Project manager and Team
- Facilitator

- Sensitivity dedication

Constructing Project Networks:
- Defining the work breakdown structure
- Diagramming the network
- Developing the project schedule
- Analyzing cost time trade-offs
- Assessing and analyzing risks
Defining the Work Breakdown Structure:
- WBS = a statement of all work that has to be completed
- Activity = smallest unit of work effort consuming both time and resources
that the project manager can schedule and control
Diagramming the Network:
= a visual display designed to depict the relationship between activities, that consist
of hodes (circles) and arcs (arrows)
- PERT = program evaluation and review technique
- CPM = critical path method
- Precedence relationship = a relationship that determines a sequence for
undertaking activities
o Specifies a activity die kan niet eerder beginnen als de ander is
afgerond
- Estimating activity times
o Statistical methods
o Learning curve models
o Managerial opinions
