A standard CPM schedule is a highly optimistic assessment of the likely project completion date! This 1-hour practical workshop identified the limitations of a CPM schedule (and why this is a good thing for managing the work). Plus the steps necessary to move from a standard CPM schedule to a

This webinar discusses developments in the control of projects that are not suited to traditional Critical Path scheduling (CMP). CPM assumes there is one right way to undertake the work of a project and this can be modelled in a CPM schedule. However, experience shows there are many types of

The Australian Defence Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group (CASG) Schedule Compliance Risk Assessment Methodology (SCRAM) provides a minimally disruptive, independent, non-attributional and non-advocate review process and framework for identifying root causes of schedule slippage and recommendations for going forward to senior and Executive-level management. SCRAM can be used at the

Why are large schedule delays, which seemingly too often come as "huge surprises" when reported, becoming a feature of major and mega projects? Is the critical path method failing us? Is agile development the solution, maybe hybrid, or what about critical chain as an alternative? The reality is that all

An update on the 2017 presentation below.

Management is required to ensure that the project planning and schedule being offered up actually works and actually meets the requirements of the contract and will, in reality, deliver the project. A Peer review will establish that a methodology and project narratives exist. Typical Peer Review techniques services include: -

Research on resource constrained project scheduling has mostly considered fixed resource capacities and deterministic activity durations. In real-world environments, however, it is impracticable to obtain only deterministic information. This presentation investigates the issues and shows the effectiveness of RCPSP techniques over traditional methods by considering one real-life scheduling problem.
