Project Schedule Network Diagram

A diagram that visually shows the dependencies and sequencing among activities in the project schedule.

Key Points

  • Displays activity nodes and the logical links that define order and dependency (FS, SS, FF, SF).
  • Used to identify the critical path, total/float values, and potential bottlenecks.
  • Supports schedule development, what-if analysis, and compression techniques like fast tracking and crashing.
  • Often created with the precedence diagramming method; leads and lags can be shown on relationships.

Example

In a software project, "Develop Feature A" must finish before "System Test" can start (finish-to-start). "Prepare Test Data" can begin once "Design Complete" starts (start-to-start) with a 2-day lag. The network diagram maps these links so the team can find the critical path and schedule buffers.

PMP Example Question

  1. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
  2. Project Schedule Network Diagram
  3. RACI Matrix
  4. Milestone List

Correct Answer: B — Project Schedule Network Diagram

Explanation: The network diagram visually presents the logical relationships (dependencies and sequence) among schedule activities.

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.
