Question:

Option #1: Network Diagraming - Site Preparation

Network diagramming is a logical, sequential process that requires you to consider the order in which activities should occur to schedule projects as efficiently as possible. All projects have predecessors (activities that must/should occur before the next step within a project plan can take place). Using the Appendix B Table 1 Site Preparation data, review the steps in Appendix B section "1. Construct This Network Diagram Using MS Project 2013" (Pinto, 2015, pp. 510-512).

Your assignment is to:

1. Constructa network diagram for this project using project management software (MS Project, ProjectLibre, Open Project, etc.) or other appropriate application software and the data referenced above. Your diagram should include parallel logical sequential paths to completion and all nodes should be labeled.
2. Createan AON(Activity on Node) network diagram illustrating the project activities with parallel paths to complete the project and a defined critical path.
3. Insert your network diagrams as appendices in paper, in the main body of which you:

Submit a two- to three-page paper plus your diagrams. The written portion of the paper must include an introduction and conclusion. The paper must explainyour rationale for creating each path in the AON network activity diagram. Your rationale should demonstrate project management best practices (a forward path). When you submit your assignment, include a titlepage, and a reference page that includes at least two references (one of which may include your textbook) to support your rationale. The CSU-Global Library is a good place to find these references. Adherence to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements are required.
