Factors Affecting Scheduling

• Accuracy of work package estimated.
• - It allows you to detemine the accuracy of work
  package estimated by you.
• Level of task dependency
• - Dependent tasks can only be accomplished in
  sequence rather than in parallel. So, increasing
  the number of personnel will not necessarily
  reduce the time required to complete the work.
• The availability of personnel resources.
• - An individual can not focus on more than one
  task at a time. Thus, without sufficient
  personnel independent tasks will need to be done
  sequentially.
