Explanation/Reference:
Schedule development is the process of analyzing activity sequences, durations, resource
requirements, and schedule constraints to create the project schedule. Inserting the activities,
durations, and resources into the scheduling tool generates a schedule with planned dates for
completing the project activities. The goal of the schedule development is to form the processes
such that the stakeholders can use it in the creation of the project. Schedule development consists
of two main sections:
1. Input and Data: The starting point for any schedule is the input of information developed during
the planning process.
Define schedule scope
Breakdown structure relationships
Schedule specification
Feedback from stakeholders
Cost estimate model
2. Creating Schedule: This process provides basic knowledge in an outline structure for a study of
the means, methods, and tools necessary for the project schedule development process.
