Precedence Relationship

An ordering link between two activities in the precedence diagramming method that shows how one activity depends on another.

Key Points

  • Represents how activities are connected in PDM using FS, SS, FF, or SF links.
  • Controls the sequence of work and may include leads or lags.
  • Displayed as connectors between activity nodes in a schedule network diagram.
  • Choosing the wrong relationship can distort timelines and create infeasible schedules.

Example

In a software project, "Complete design" must finish before "Start development" can begin (Finish-to-Start with zero lag). "Begin system testing" may start two days after "Start integration" (Start-to-Start with a 2-day lag). These links are precedence relationships in the PDM network.

PMP Example Question

In a schedule network built with PDM, the team links "Pour concrete" so it cannot start until "Place rebar" is complete. What is this link called?

  1. Precedence relationship
  2. Resource leveling
  3. Milestone list
  4. Rolling wave planning

Correct Answer: A — Precedence relationship

Explanation: The link defines the dependency and order between two activities in the precedence diagramming method.

AI for Project Managers — Build Plans Faster, Lead Better

Turn messy inputs into structured project plans in minutes. If you are a project manager tired of spending hours on documentation, this course shows you how to use AI to work faster while staying fully in control.

This is not a generic AI course. You will learn how to use AI as a practical co-pilot to build real project artifacts—charters, WBS, schedules, risk registers, and executive reports—using structured, reliable prompt frameworks.

You will also learn how to keep your project aligned across scope, schedule, cost, and risk, and how to interpret performance data like Earned Value Management to support better decisions and communication.

Everything is designed for immediate use. You get ready-to-use prompt templates and workflows you can apply right away in your projects. Watch the video to see how it works and start building your first AI-supported project plan.
