Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: Activity list and project scope statement
Explanation
The activity list defines what activities exist; the project scope statement and WBS clarify deliverables and constraints that inform sequencing logic. Together, these define what needs to be sequenced. The project manager then applies mandatory, discretionary, and external dependencies to establish the activity sequence in the network diagram.
**Why not A:** The risk register documents identified risks and response strategies. While risks can affect sequencing decisions, the risk register is not the primary input for determining the logical sequence of activities. Activity dependencies are driven by the work itself, not the risk register.
**Why not B:** The lessons learned register captures insights from past experience. While it may inform better practices, it does not define the logical relationships between activities in the current project's schedule development.
**Why not D:** The communications management plan defines how project information will be distributed. It has no role in determining activity sequencing or logical dependencies between schedule activities.
