Scenario Continuation
Your change request was approved! Following the change identified in your scenario, your team must now assess how your proposed adjustments impact the overall project timeline. This could involve a new task being added, a delay to a critical activity, or an opportunity to resequence or overlap tasks to reduce the impact.
As project managers, you are responsible for analyzing which activities are directly affected, which dependencies must shift, and how the change ripples through the rest of the schedule. This is your opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of project sequencing, task duration, float, and the critical path.
Objective
Update your original Gantt chart to reflect the impact of the proposed change. Your updated chart should:
- Reflect the impact of the proposed change
- Adjust task durations and dependencies where needed
- Shows the ripple effect of changes through the schedule
- Identify any impacts to the critical path
Tip: Remember to save a copy of your original Gantt chart before making any changes.
