Jeremiah has 3 projects, with the following conditions: Project 1 _ CPI=.8 & SPI =.9 Project 2- CPI=1.1 & SPI=.8 Project 3 _ CPI= 1.0 & SPI=1 Which of his projects are behind on both planned cost and schedule?
Project 3
Project 2
Project 1 and 2
Project 1
Let's first look at the definition of Schedule Performance Index and Cost Performance Index; A value >1 shows ahead of planned schedule and under planned cost, a value<1.0 is behind planned schedule and over budgeted cost, and a value=1.0 is on planned schedule and on planned cost. Based on these definitions, Project 1 is the only project that meets the criteria. Project 2 is incorrect as CPI is under planned cost but SPI is behind schedule. Project 3 is incorrect as it meets definition of both on schedule and cost. Project 1 and 2 is incorrect as only Project 1 is behind on both schedule and cost.
