Ray's shipment of materials hit every red light and traffic jam on the way *0/2
to the site. Upon arrival, half of the material was judged defective,
necessitating a trip back to the supplier, and then the same arduous
journey back to the site once the new materials were loaded. Traffic was
a little better on the second round but the flat tire and subsequent repair
caused as much if not more delay than the first trip. In the final analysis

The project activity of Material Delivery was pretty close to the optimistic estimate.

The project activity of Material Delivery was pretty close to the most likely estimate.

The project activity of Material Delivery had a much higher variance than
anticipated.

The project activity of Material Delivery was pretty close to the pessimistic
estimate.
