- Abstract
- Crashing project activities is a typical way to shorten their completion times to meet project due dates, and previous research on quality in time-cost tradeoff problems focused on maximizing the individual activity quality of projects. However, implementing project scheduling that takes into account the potential quality loss cost (PQLC) in time-cost tradeoff problems is a practical approach, since individual activity quality is defined by conformance to project contractor requirements. We propose a mixed integer linear programming model that considers the PQLC for excessive crashing activities. This model will help project planners develop practical project schedules.
