  1. Project ManagementChapter 3 part 3 Crashing the Project (Time-Cost)

  2. Project Crashing (Time-Cost)(Reducing the length of time of a project) • Estimated time is fixed... no more. • Can reduce through additional resources • Manpower, equipment • Direct costof activity is always increased

  3. Motivation • Need to reduce time of project because: • Requirement to complete in specified time frame • Economic advantage • Three kinds of costs • Crash costs (activity direct costs) • Can be given directly, or need to determine through linear interpolation • Administration costs (or project indirect costs) • Penalty costs • Incur crash costs to avoid administration and penalty costs

  4. CT=3 NT=7 Crash Time Total Cost = $9,000 Normal Time Total Cost = $3,000 Crash cost = $1,500 Interpolation Slope = (CC – NC)/(NT-CT) CC=Crash Cost NC=Normal Cost NT=Normal Time CT =Crash Time Time

  5. Procedure • Always crash one period at a time! • 1. Identify options – critical activities • 2. Select least expensive • 3. Savings? Implement if so. Update all paths • 4. Repeat 1-3 until no cost savings are possible Note: the critical path will change – can have two

  30. Conclusions • The most economical duration of the project is 12 weeks. • Achieved by crashing B twice, A once, C once and Y twice. • Spent $900 in increased direct costs. • Avoided $2000 in administrative costs. • Net savings $1100.

  31. Example 2 Network F A C E H B D G

  32. Critical Path • Four paths in the network: • Path 1: A – C – F – H: 9 weeks • Path 2: A – C – E – G – H: 15 weeks • Path 3: A – D – G – H: 13 weeks • Path 4: B – D – G – H: 14 weeks • Path 2 is critical

  33. Crashing Example 2 • Recall the project duration was 15 weeks • Suppose that project deadline is now 13 weeks • How should the project be crashed?
