Universal Travel is planning to move its headquarters from Cincinnati to Columbus, Ohio. The table for problem 27 details the steps that must be taken. Times are in weeks.
a. What is the expected completion time of the project? What is the critical path?
b. What is the probability the project will be completed within 36 weeks?
c. Suppose Universal will be charged for both sites if it is not completely moved in within 36 weeks. This will cost the company $5000. The company is considering two options to improve its chances to meet this deadline.
• For $1000, additional movers can be hired to move the files. This would cut each of the three time estimates for that activity in half.
• Additional movers can be hired for $1000 to assist in moving the equipment. This would cut the three time estimates for that activity by one week each. The company can pursue either OR BOTH of these options. What is your recommendation?
