In reality, each of those twelve would have hundreds of subordinate activities. Your assignment is to first create the Gantt chart and then use it to create a PERT chart. The answers to this problem are in the “Other Information” link on this disk.  \n\n| Item \\# | Activity | Weeks | Description |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1 | Begin All Steps of the\u003Cbr>Program | 0 | Your first box will be the “start” box. |\n| 2 | Begin Engine\u003Cbr>Purchase | 17 | The engine is built by a subcontractor. It will take 17 weeks to submit the details and work with the manufacturer to get the engines modified & produced. This needs to start early because some of the other components depend on engine design. |\n| 3 | Develop Plans & Specifications | 36 | The overall plans and specifications for the airplane will take 36 weeks to design and integrate. Except for the engine, all other parts development must await completion of this step before starting. |\n| 4 | Complete Fuselage Drawings | 12 | This is done by a subcontractor and requires the plans and specifications to be complete. It will take 12 weeks. |\n| 5 | Submit orders for\u003Cbr>accessories | 8 | Once the plans and specifications are done, things such as the seats, instrumentation, kitchen components, etc. can be ordered. This will take 8 weeks. |\n| 6 | Award Tail Assembly Contract | 12 | This is done by a subcontractor and requires the plans and specifications to be complete. It will take 12 weeks. |\n| 7 | Award Wings Assembly Contract | 10 | This is done by a subcontractor and requires the plans and specifications to be complete. It will take 10 weeks. |\n| 8 | Complete Fuselage Manufacture | 56 | This is done by a subcontractor and requires the plans and specifications to be complete. It will take 56 weeks. |\n| 9 | Assemble Engine to Fuselage | 17 | This requires both the engine and fuselage to be complete and will take 17 weeks. |\n| 10 | Receive Wings from\u003Cbr>Subcontractor | 40 | Once the subcontractors have begun the manufacture, it will be 40 weeks until the wings are received. |\n| 11 | Receive Tail Ass’y from Subcontractor | 40 | Once the subcontractors have begun the manufacture, it will be 40 weeks until the tail assembly is received. |\n| 12 | Receive Accessories\u003Cbr>from Vendors | 52 | After the orders have gone out to the manufacturers, it will require 52 weeks to receive all the accessories from the various vendors. |\n| 13 | Complete Final Aircraft Assembly | 8-\u003Cbr>18 | After all components are delivered, it will take at least 8 and maybe up to 18 weeks to finish putting all things together. |\n\nGantt Chart created from information in the exercise  \nActivity times  \n1.
