SEQUENCE ACTIVITIES
Engr Lt Col (R) Areeb Ahmad : M.Sc, PMP-
SEQUENCE ACTIVITIES
Dependency Determination (Predecessors)
Types of dependencies are
:
•
Mandatory Predecessors (hard logic)
•
Inherent in the nature of work being done or
required by contract
•
E.g …Design before developing or
construction before paint
•
Discretionary Predecessors (preferred,
preferential, or soft logic)
•
Define base on knowledge
•
Can be changed if needed
•
Important when shortening or re-seq the
project
•
External Predecessors
