Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

In using a simple abbf analysis how would you handle the subject of construction drawing issues?

For example imagine an activity was planned to take 6 weeks but actually took 12 weeks to complete. During the currency of the activity there were several drawings issued from the design team.

Then suppose the activity is ’1st fix electrical’ and the drawings are for floor boxes, containment and high level trays.

Planned: xxxxxx
Actual: xxxxxxxxxxxx
Drawing issues: x x x x


With such a mis-match in the basic level of detail for the as-built construction activity, compared to the high level of detail for the drawing issues; is it possible to use the abbf method?

What do you think PPers?

Unfortunately my diagram didn’t appear as I had drawn it, which may have confused people. Try this:


Planned................XXXXXX

Actual...............................XXXXXXXXXXXX

Drawing issuess.....X...X..X......X...........X


Make more sense now? By the way, this isn’t a job that I had planned.

I don’t think you planned it well. Just consider a lot of reservations. Remember? It is always bottom-less.
