Project managers must often face the challenge of compressing the project schedule. All of the following actions can be taken to reduce the duration of the critical path EXCEPT: ​

a. Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish, start-to-start, or start-to-finish relationships.
b. Reduce the project scope and /or quality.
c. Use the float in critical path activities
d. Partially overlap sequential activities by using time leads.

Answer 1

Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish relationships

Step-by-step explanation:

Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish relationships. This overlaping does not account for unexpected events and might not account possible relations between the legs or stages of a project

Answer 2

A) Overlap sequential activities using finish-to-finish, start-to-start, or start-to-finish relationships.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the project manager uses finish to finish relationships, a successor activity cannot finish until the predecessor activity has not finished.

If the project manager uses start to start relationships, a successor activity cannot start until the predecessor activity has not started.

If the project manager uses start to finish relationships, a successor activity cannot finish until the predecessor activity has not started.
