Campaign 1 hit the ground running with already established characters.Ĭ1 had the Kraghammer arc and the Slayer's Take arc before they dived into the first character arc, which was Percy and the Briarwoods (E24-38). Tbh I can hardly remember anything that happened before that. The point of creating a critical path timeline is to give a visual representation of the action items within your project.I think the show only started kicking into gear with the Iron Shepherds arc. That brings up a final point - if you need to, get creative. Because there are multiple subprojects going on at the same time, the creator of this multiple critical path timeline used this format to depict their timeline. Instead, here, many more complexities are depicted. In the example critical path timeline to the right, you will notice that the critical path does not appear the same as the Gantt Chart critical path timeline in Deanna’s example. Arrows designate task dependencies - this means that for some tasks, other tasks must be completed prior to their start. In Deanna’s Critical Path Example here on Bright Hub, created using MS Project 2007, you will see that each item appears listed on the left, followed by the number of days that are estimated for completion of the project.
If you haven’t already understood what a critical path timeline will look like, you may want to view some of the following examples to see how the critical path timeline appears. Microsoft’s Project is an outstanding program to use when working with the critical path. For our purposes, you will want to create a critical path timeline - a visual display that shows how the work will spread out over time, and demonstrate task dependencies in a visual manner. Once all of your information has been entered into your data collection program of choice, you can then determine how you will use the information to work with the critical path. When you enter your information into your system, you will want to be sure to note how many days you expect the work item to take for completion and you will want to note whether or not that task is dependent upon another task. Estimate how many days each work item will take to complete.Įnter each critical path item into a spreadsheet or into Microsoft Project. Now that you’ve defined your work, you can begin to arrange your work into its critical path. Once decomposition has occurred, you can then arrange your work items into the work breakdown structure.
By decomposing your project, you will determine what activities need to be undertaken in order to complete the project.
Second, you will need to decompose your project scope into the component activities. Thus, if your project scope is to “construct a pair of pants” anything dealing with shirt construction or sock darning will not go into your critical path. Remember that your project will not be dealing with anything outside of this scope. Your critical path timeline can be completed by using a few easy steps.įirst, you will need to make sure that you understand the scope of your project and that the project scope has been stated clearly and succinctly. The timeline for a critical path demonstrates the relationships of each part of the timeline, that is, each task on the critical path, to one another. A work breakdown structure will tell you what tasks are dependant upon which other tasks. A successful critical path has been linked to the work breakdown structure for your project. The critical path of your project is the list of all activities that are required to complete a project along with the schedule for those activities and the dependency of one item upon another. Is That Kind of Like a Historical Timeline?Ī critical path timeline is a visual representation of task dependencies in your project schedule.
