You are a project team manager, and your team members reporteach day to you to receive their primary assignments. Not every team member is as efficient as another withparticular kinds of tasks.
| | Time required (hours) to complete tasks |
Task | Task complexity | Team member 1 - Jones | Team member 2 - Nguyen | Team member 3 - Walpita | Team member 4 - Manderas |
Task A | Very high | 3 | 5 | 4 | 3 |
Task A | High | 2 | 1 | 3 | 2 |
Task A | Medium | 3 | 4 | 2 | 2 |
Task A | Low | 4 | 3 | 3 | 4 |
a. Given the task roster, complexity levels, and time estimates,assign team members to tasks to optimize efficiency. Also, determine how long it will take for the team to completetheir routine tasks.
b.You want to focus on efficiency, so you assign ratings to eachteam member’s performance of each task. Reassign thetasks to obtain the highest efficiency possible (a perfect score is100).
c. Compare the results with those from the first question forthis problem. What is the average rating of theassignment? What other criteria could be used to assigntasks to team members?
| Rating |
Task | Team member 1 Jones | Team member 2 Nguyen | Team member 3 Walpita | Team member 4 Manderas |
Task A | 89 | 95 | 83 | 84 |
Task A | 88 | 80 | 96 | 85 |
Task A | 87 | 92 | 82 | 84 |
Task A | 93 | 82 | 36 | 94 |
