Prepare drawings, including wiring diagrams 3. Install conduit work and wirings 4. Install Hardware & Speakers 5. Install Plasma screens, projectors, amplifiers (Instruments) 6. Testing & delivery of complete system, 7. Preparation of operation manuals & training Duration of the entire construction project for this church is projected to take about 18 months to complete, and the subcontractor who is performing the A/V work (which does not take more than 3 to 4 weeks in total) needs to coordinate its operation with the General Contractor to deliver a workable system at the time of hand-over of the completed project. You need to show A/V sub’s activities in relation and in concert with the General Contractor’s tasks on a single Gantt Chart, using different colors. 40% of total budget for A/V work is instrumentation, which takes only 2 weeks to install. Do you purchase all the necessary equipment and instruments at the beginning of the project or towards the end? Your decision affects the project cash-flow and budgeting. You are required to draw up a GANTT Chart for all tasks involved for the entire project (construction tasks & A/V system in different colors), showing the delivery of H/W, installation & testing of the H/W, and milestones for your payment requests.
