Activity Duration Estimating Process
The abovementioned process falls within the 'Planning' process group
of the 'Time Management' knowledge area,
as per
PMI PMBok.
Estimating schedule activity durations relies on
information which includes schedule activity, scope of work,
required resource types, estimated resource quantities, and
resource calendars with resource availabilities. Estimate
inputs originate from the project team (or group) that is/are
most familiar with the nature of the work involved in the
specific schedule activity. Duration estimates are
progressively elaborated, thereby increasing accuracy and
quality.
As this process continues throughout the project life cycle, RobustPMSM
offers the Project
Schedule Management Implementation service to facilitate the successful
implementation of the Activity Duration Estimating process.
