Estimate Activity Resources<br />
Before estimating activity durations, you must have a good<br />
idea of the quantity and type or level of resources that will be<br />
assigned to each activity.<br />
Consider important issues in estimating resources:<br />
How difficult/complex will it be to complete specific<br />
activities on this project?<br />
What is the organization’s history in doing similar<br />
activities?<br />
Are the required resources available? Internal or External?<br />
Very important to match the right person with the right<br />
task!<br />
