Dependency: Dependencies in a project are the relationships between activities, whereby one activity
must do something (finish-to-start) before another activity can do something (start-to-finish).

Watch the first three minutes of this video. The video covers the four main types of dependencies.

  • Finish to Start
  • Start to Start
  • Start to Finish
  • Finish to Finish
