The Resource Schedule Management Essay Research Paper

You have determined the following schedule for a project in which the key resource is a backhoe. You receive a call from your partner, Delvin, who desperately needs one of your backhoes for four days. You tell Delvin you would be willing to let him have a backhoe if you are still able to complete your project in 13 days.
Develop a resource schedule in the loading chart which follows to see if it is possible to lend Delvin a backhoe for four days and still complete your project in 13 days. Be sure to record the order in which you schedule the activities, using scheduling heuristics. No splitting of activities is possible.
Can you say yes to Delvin’s request? If yes, which days would you lend him the backhoe? If not, why not? Thoroughly address the question in a two- to four-page paper but include the chart as an Appendix to your paper.
Requirements:
*Your well-written paper should be two to four pages in length, not including the cover page, references page(s), and appendix. Appendices should be included at the end of the paper after the references page(s).
*Format your paper according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing & APA (Links to an external site.).
*Cite a minimum of three sources--two of which should be current academic, peer-reviewed scholarly sources--to support your responses, demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course, and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic.
Note: Current research in this class means the most recent five-year period. Although research older than five years may be used, it will not count toward the assignment requirement. Additionally, in the lecture material for Module 1, you were reminded of what constitutes academic, peer-reviewed scholarly sources, and how to find them in the CSU Global Library.
