    Rodriguez Jescente Robin E. ACT 4 The Critical Path Method and Earned Value Analysis

    Uploaded by

    Paul A. Jimenez
    The document provides steps to calculate early start (ES), early finish (EF), late start (LS), and late finish (LF) for a series of activities in a network diagram. It shows setting initial values, then calculating EF by adding duration to ES. The EF of predecessors becomes the ES of successors. This continues until all values are filled in. The last activity's EF equals total duration. Total duration is set as the last activity's LF. Then LS is calculated as LF minus duration. The LF of predecessors equals the LS of successors.

    Step 6. The EF of the last activity is equal to the total phase duration. “15”

    Step 7. Let the total duration be the LF of the last activity, or activities.
