New page

An activity is an operation or process consuming time and possibly other resources. An individual or work team can manage an activity. It is a measurable element of the total project programme.

The term ‘duration’ refers to the length of time needed to complete an activity.

The critical path is the longest sequence of activities through a project network from start to finish, the sum of whose durations determines the overall project duration.

‘Float’ is the time available for an activity in addition to its planned duration.

‘Free float’ is the amount of time that an activity can be delayed beyond its early start/early finish dates without delaying the early start or early finish of any immediately following activity.

A hanging activity is an activity not linked to any preceding or successor activities.
