Question

The following general activities are proposed for production of heavy machines (not in order) Test of prototype (3 weeks) Revise the design (2 weeks) Pre-Design (4 weeks) Market analysis (2 weeks) Order of raw materials (5 weeks) Construction of Prototype (3 weeks) Production of machines (4 weeks) Construct the GANTT chart for this process in the correct order of activities and define the critical path for it. Note: Some activities are parallel. .

Answer 1

The following is the GANTT chart for the production of heavy machines: Order of raw materials (5 weeks) → Pre-Design (4 weeks) → Market analysis (2 weeks) → Revise the design (2 weeks) → Construction of Prototype (3 weeks) → Test of prototype (3 weeks) → Production of machines (4 weeks)

The critical path of the GANTT chart for the production of heavy machines is Pre-design, Construction of Prototype, Test of Prototype, and Production of Machines.
