Which process involves identifying and documenting the logical relationships among schedule activities?

Question

Options

• ASchedule development
• BActivity sequencing
• CCreate WBS
• DApplying leads and lags

• A
  11% (2)
• B
  83% (15)
• D
  6% (1)

Explanation

Activity sequencing (B) is correct because it is the specific process of reviewing activities and determining the order in which they must occur, then documenting those dependencies (finish-to-start, start-to-start, etc.) in a network diagram or similar output.

Why the others are wrong:

• A (Schedule development) comes after sequencing - it uses the relationships already identified to calculate start/end dates and produce the actual schedule.
• C (Create WBS) breaks the project scope into deliverables and work packages, not activity relationships - it happens before sequencing.
• D (Applying leads and lags) is a technique used within activity sequencing, not the process itself - leads and lags fine-tune existing relationships rather than identify them.

Memory tip: Think of it in order - you define activities, then you sequence them (establish logical relationships), then you develop the schedule. "Sequencing = sorting the order" - just like sorting cards in a hand before playing them.
