Resource Types
Labor (people)
● Resources and roles
● Measured in units of time.
● Generally re-used between activities/projects.
● Recorded in terms of price/unit (for example,
$50/hour).
Nonlabor (equipment)
● Measured in units of time.
● Recorded in terms of price/unit (for example,
$500/hour).
Material (consumables)
● Measured in units other than time (for example,
$5/sq.ft.).

Assign by role:
● At least one role must be assigned to an activity.
● Replace role assignment with a specific resource.
● Replace single role assignments individually or multiple role
assignments simultaneously.
Assign directly from the resource dictionary:
● Labor resources without role assignments.
● Required method when assigning nonlabor and material
resources.
Steps for Resource Management
2. Assign resource to
activities.

Duration Types
Objectives
Examples:
2 days X 8 hrs/day = 16 hours
3 days X 4 hrs/day = 12 hours
5 days X 16 hrs/day = 80 hours
Time and Work
Although the labels for the variables may change, the basic
equation remains the same:
● For a Non-Progressed Activity:
Original Duration X Budgeted Units/Time = Budgeted Units
Related equations:
Actual Units + Remaining Units = At Completion Units
Budgeted Units – At Completion Units = Variance (in Units)

Calculating Percent Complete
Objectives
Project Plan:
10-day project to build 10 desks for $1,000
● $1,000 total value
● 1 desk per day
● $100 per desk
10 days 10 desks $1,000 (1 desk/day) ($100/desk)
Planned Value Cost (PV)
In our example:
$300 (EV) – $500 (PV) = – $200 (SV)
In our example:
$300 (EV) – $600 (AC) = – $300 (CV)
In our example:
300/500 = .6
In our example:
300/600 = .5
A number less than 1.0 indicates that the project is over budget.
For every project dollar spent, only $.50 in physical work was
accomplished.

Managing Multiple Projects
Objectives
Can activities that are not on the critical path affect project
duration?
1. Yes
2. No
Multiple Float Paths
Scheduling Out-of-Sequence Activities

Preserves original
relationship between
activities.
Progress Override
Disregards original
relationship between
activities.
