After the project manager (PM) has assembled his project team members and outlines the activities to be done, it is now time to start creating the PND or the project network diagram. To do this, the PM puts each activity to sticky notes and arranges them in order as per sequencing. Let it cool a day or two before revisiting it and then review with project team for errors, mistakes, issues or other concerns. Work on the PND to your selected project management information system.
If the project is large, such as a software project with a hundred and more, the use of sticky notes will deem impractical to use except for those in the deliverable level. To make the task simpler, break down the large project into subprojects.
