In terms of project management, a backward pass also tends to have a negative implication, as it implies lateness. A backward pass in the area of project management refers to the calculation of late finish dates and late start dates for the portions of schedule activities that have not been ...
4th Step: Backward Pass Latest Start Time: The latest time an activity may begin without increasing the project completion time. Latest Finish Time: The latest time an activity may be completed without increasing the project completion time. Backward Pass: Part of the PERT/CPM procedure that invo...
Network computation process (1)Forward pass (2)Backward pass LF(Late finish) = LS(Late start) + DUR(duration) EF(Early finish) = ES(Early start) + DUR Slack/Folat--Is the amount of time that a task in a project network can be delayed without causing a delay. (1)Total slack--share...

B - Project Management Terms Backward pass- This calculates late-start and finish dates for project activities by working backwards from the project end date. Balance- A phase in the portfolio life cycle that involves balancing a portfolio’s components based on risk, costs, and use of resources...
Backward pass:Calculate each task's latest start (LS) and latest finish (LF). Start with the final task, which will have an LF equal to its EF, and move backward, subtracting task durations. Slack time:For each task, subtract its ES from its LS (or its EF from its LF) to determine...
Just as with the forward pass (early start/finish, left to right), resources must be taken into account when expediting the backward pass. Steps to calculating Late Starts dates Assign the overall project’s completion date as the finish date of the task before it’s on the critical path,...
Forward pass: Starting from the beginning of the project and moving forward through the critical path diagram, calculate the earliest start time and finish time for each activity. This helps determine the earliest possible project completion date for the entire project. Backward pass: Work your way...
To calculate the Late Start and Late Finish, we use the backward pass; i.e., we will start from the last activity and move back towards the first activity. Late Start and Late Finish Dates for the Path Start -> A -> B -> C -> End ...
