CHAPTER 6 – Resource Allocation &
Resource Leveling
PART 1 – Introduction to Resource
Allocation
control
Professor Hanna

,Lets look back at what we have

•So far we have assumed “time” to be the driving force of
our schedule
• If we have time everything is possible right? It takes 2 days to erect a wall
if we have the 2 days then everything is great.
•But what happens if you have the 2 days but no workers? Or
no concrete?
•Time is no longer our leading resource

, Resource

•When a network is developed for a project, the logic presumably reflects
sequences of the activities as they must take place, without regard to
limitations imposed by the availability of resources.
•In practice this is not typically the case, sometimes you schedule the
most expensive activities towards the end of the job in order to have
some “cash-flow” before you get to those activities.
•Other times you want to order all the steel together to get a better price
when you buy in “bulk”. There are many reasons why you schedule
something out of order but the most important one is “Resource
Allocation”.

, Resource

•Invariably, the logic initially incorporated in a network already
reflects the fact that some resources must be efficiently utilized.
•Regardless of how you want to schedule the job you should
always allocate time for the steel (or other materials) to be
fabricated/delivered
