The project team is creating a schedule for an upcoming project and attempting to determine when each task should occur. Which of the following will assist the project team with building the schedule?

Task sequencing is the output or result of analyzing dependencies, not the input used to build the schedule in the first place.

Task predecessors are a subset of dependencies that only capture what must finish before a task starts, and do not capture the full range of dependency types needed for scheduling.

Task dependencies identify the relationship types between tasks - such as finish-to-start, start-to-start, or finish-to-finish - which directly determine when each task can begin or end. Without mapping dependencies, the project team cannot establish a valid sequence or calculate early/late start and finish dates. Dependencies are the core scheduling input used in methods like the Critical Path Method (CPM) to build a realistic schedule.

Task prioritizing ranks tasks by importance or urgency but does not establish the logical order or timing relationships required to build a schedule.
