Merlina Natividad, owner of RESMERL Garment Subcon Services, has the chance to take on new job orders. But can she fulfill them while still meeting all her other deadlines? Each job order requires nine activities, some of which are dependent on earlier activities before they can be started. Natividad must determine the total time to complete the new project and the right sequence to avoid delays. Students use project management techniques – such as Gantt Charts, CPM/PERT, etc. – to help Natividad schedule RESMERL’s job activities.
