Episode 31: Dependencies: Hard Logic, Soft Logic, Internal, External

This episode explains the different types of task dependencies that influence project scheduling. Hard logic, or mandatory dependencies, represent relationships that cannot be altered, such as completing design before development. Soft logic, or discretionary dependencies, are based on best practices or preferences, allowing some flexibility in sequencing. We also define internal dependencies that exist within the project team’s control and external dependencies that rely on third parties or outside conditions.We’ll explore how each dependency type impacts scheduling, risk management, and contingency planning. Examples include coordinating vendor deliveries for external dependencies and optimizing workflows for discretionary sequencing. Recognizing and managing dependencies is a key skill tested on the PK0-005 exam and vital for preventing schedule delays in real-world projects.
