Planning Using Primavera SureTrak Project Manager Version 3.0 Revised 2006

Chapter 7: Adding Activities

Activities should be well defined and measurable pieces of work with a measurable outcome. Activities such as Specification have confusing meanings. Does this mean Draft, Review, Approve, Issue, or all of these? A more appropriate activity description would be Specification Approved or Specification Issued . It also helps to repeat the code title in the activity description (i.e.: System 1 Specification Issued if you have room). The limit for the descriptions is 48 characters so try to keep the activity descriptions brief but meaningful.
