This PMI PMP project management tutorial explains the process of developing project schedule along with ITTO,input,tools,techniques,output which is part of schedule management knowledge area.
PMP Develop Schedule is the process of analyzing activity sequences, durations, resource requirements, and schedule constraints to create the project schedule model.
The key benefit of Develop Project Schedule process is that by entering schedule activities, durations, resources, resource availabilities, and logical relationships into the scheduling tool, it generates a schedule model with planned dates for completing project activities.
Following inputs are feed into this process and produces the project schedule.
