Microsoft Project to make preliminary schedule

Project Schedule

In this activity, you use Microsoft Project to make preliminary schedule for your course project. Your schedule should include tasks, dependencies, and resources. The schedule should:

• Have tasks driven by duration (that is, do not enter a start or a stop date, but let Microsoft Project calculate the time required).
• Use summary tasks to organize the schedule into project phases. Note that:
• Summary tasks do not have duration.
• Microsoft Project rolls-up the sub-tasks or “sums” them in the summary task.
• Include tasks that start as soon as possible.
• Provide adequate detail to describe the project.
• Include deliverables for each phase.
• Include a review (either technical or executive) for each phase.
• End with a milestone.
• Include tasks linked to show precedence relationships and dependencies.
