You are the project manager of the NHQ Project. Management has told you that resource leveling will be enforced on your project, but they still want you to complete the project by July 2. With the current resources you have and the resource leveling imposed, you would not be able to finish by the constraint. What document should you update to address this situation?
The activity resource requirements will need to be addressed because the imposed
constraint will cause a need for more resource to complete
the activities by July 2.
What is resource leveling heuristics?
Resource leveling heuristics is a prioritization method that allocates inadequate resources to critical
path activities first. It is
a schedule network analysis technique useful to a schedule that has already been analyzed by the
critical path method. It
is used when shared or critical essential resources are only available at certain times, in limited
quantities, or to keep
resource usage at a constant level. It is a technique that resolves resource conflicts by delaying tasks
within their slack
allowances. Resource leveling is the process in which project teams come across problems when
developing their project
schedules. If a company has multiple projects running simultaneously that require the same
resources, then problems can
arise. It can often cause the critical path method to change.
Answer option C is incorrect. The project scope does not need to be addressed as there has not been
a request to reduce or increase the
project scope.
Answer option B is incorrect. The project charter will not change. In fact, the charter will rarely, if
ever, change once has been approved and
signed.
Answer option D is incorrect. The schedule management plan would not be the biggest concern in
this instance. The plan defines how the
schedule will be created, executed, monitored and controlled.
