Project managers should determine the required duration of required activities and include additional slack time in putting together a schedule.

Project managers should determine the required duration of required activities and include additional slack time in putting together a schedule. It is far easier to adjust for an activity that completes early than for an activity running longer than expected. Project scheduling is a key task that will determine the success of a project. The process starts with establishing the objectives for the project. The scope must be considered. A plan must be set in place with milestones and the final goal.

Write a 5-page analysis on the project schedule template provided.

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, that you will need the following:

Title page: Remember the running head. The title should be in all capitals.
Length: 5 pages minimum
Abstract: This is a summary of your paper, not an introduction. Begin writing in third person.
Body: This begins on the page following the title page and abstract page and must be double-spaced (be careful not to triple- or quadruple-space between paragraphs). The typeface should be 12-pt. Times Roman or 12-pt. Courier in regular black type. Do not use color, bold type, or italics, except as required for APA-level headings and references. The deliverable length of the body of your paper for this assignment is 5 pages. In-body academic citations to support your decisions and analysis are required. A variety of academic sources is encouraged.
Reference page: References that align with your in-body academic sources are listed on the final page of your paper. The references must be in APA format using appropriate spacing, hanging indent, italics, and uppercase and lowercase usage as appropriate for the type of resource used. Remember, the Reference page is not a bibliography but a further listing of the abbreviated in-body citations used in the paper. Every referenced item must have a corresponding in-body citation
