Instructions
Refer to the details of the case and answer the case questions below:
1. How can outsourcing project work alleviate the three most common problems associated with multiple resource scheduling?
2. Explain the risk associated with leveling resources, compressing, or crashing projects and impose durations or catch-up as the project is being implemented.
3. Prepare a short proposal for the Smiths that includes a Gantt chart with resources assigned, and cost estimates if the project starts on 8/1/16.
4. Did resource limitations affect the final schedule? If so, how? What financial risks does this project face?
