Knowledge base from the GAO Schedule Assessment Guide (GAO-16-89G, 2015). Use for building, assessing, or auditing a program's integrated master schedule (IMS): the ten best practices of a reliable schedule (capture, sequence, resource, duration, traceability, valid critical path, reasonable total float, schedule risk analysis, updating, baseline), the four characteristics (comprehensive, well-constructed, credible, controlled), critical path method arithmetic…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
<!-- argument-hint: [best practice number, critical path, total float, schedule risk analysis (SRA), resource loading, duration, traceability, baseline, statusing, status date, forward/backward pass, EVM, four characteristics, audit, chapter number] --> # GAO Schedule Assessment Guide (GAO-16-89G, 2015) **Source**: US Government Accountability Office (GAO) — US Government work, public domain | **Chapters**: 8 ## When to use Use this skill when you need to build, explain, assess, or critique a program's **integrated master schedule (IMS)** and judge whether its forecast dates can be trusted: applying or auditing the ten best practices, computing or interpreting a critical path and total float, running or reviewing a schedule risk analysis, resource-loading and setting realistic durations, statusing against a controlled baseline, or interrogating someone else's schedule with GAO's audit questions. This is GAO's cross-government best-practice authority on **schedule reliability** — the time-domain companion to its Cost Estimating and Assessment Guide and to the agency SE handbooks (NASA, DoD). …

How to install
mdr add jgsystemsconsulting/jgs-se-knowledge-packs/gao-schedule@sha256:0ead209d6a2967cbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260624.177d6b6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
