6 - PROJECT TIME MANAGEMENT

6.5.1.5 resource calendars

Described in Section 6.4.1.4. The resource calendars influence the duration of schedule activities due to the
availability of specific resources, type of resources, and resources with specific attributes. For example, when staff
members are assigned to an activity on a full-time basis, in general, a skilled staff member can be expected to
complete a given activity in less time than a relatively less-skilled staff member.

6.5.1.6 Project Scope Statement

Described in Section 5.3.3.1. The assumptions and constraints from the project scope statement are considered
when estimating the activity durations. Examples of assumptions include, but are not limited to:

• Existing conditions,
• Availability of information, and

• Length of the reporting periods.
Examples of constraints include, but are not limited to:

• Available skilled resources, and
• Contract terms and requirements.

6.5.1.7 risk register

Described in Section 11.2.3.1. The risk register provides the list of risks, along with the results of risk analysis
and risk response planning. Updates to the risk register are included with project document updates described in
Section 11.5.3.2.

6.5.1.8 resource Breakdown Structure

Described in Section 6.4.3.2. The resource breakdown structure provides a hierarchical structure of the identified
resources by resource category and resource type.
