Dear Planners
I need your valuable advice
Our planning department have recently got request from senior management to include Construction Engineering man-hours in Project Engineering S-Curve display .
Some planners disagree with this action. They think the engineering S-curves shall be used to monitor design performance and progress and disciplines like construction eng, certification do not produce design deliverables and as such, should not be included in S-Curves
Others insist that construction workpack creation should be considered in the design deliverables list and earning value reporting
What you think?
