General planning comments and questions.
Traditional views tend to favour a management approach built on the assumption that more detail is better—and to a point, this is undoubtedly correct.
Hi All,
Need a your view.
I have a made a excel progress measuring sheet in weightage is split by acivity like below table,
While schedules on occasion may become ‘self-fulfilling prophecies’, is this because the schedule was an accurate predictor of the future, or did using the schedule change behaviours?
As part of an on-going project to publish a history of EVM (target August 2022) I’m reviewing a lot of resources accumulated over a number of years. One of the first outputs is an update to our paper ‘The CPI Stability Myth’ – this review and update draws on a number of new resources to show where the research is applicable, where the 20% stability myth does not apply.

Could someone please give me a suggestion on how to deal with contractual milestones that are in the past as far as the Data Date is concerned?

I have 2 projects open with 2 different data dates. I am sliding a bar in the 2nd one but my Duration at completion is not coming out right - or to fix that the dates are not correct. I have checked the calendars - could it be because of the data dates? I don't see what that has to do with it but I don't know what else it could be. I tried it actualized in the future and un-actualized. mystery...it is not off by the difference in data dates....

Hello,
I've multiple crews working on the same activity type, but diferent buildings.
Assume the are steel fixers and the overall productivity is 100kg/day for today, and by simple analysis, I found that 50% of crews (Group A) produced 150kg/day and the other 50% of the crews (Group B) produced 50kg/day.
Is it correct to say that Group B reduced the overall productivity by 30% ?
What is the mathematical bases for such calculation? because I want to expand the analysis.
Thanks,
Ahmad.
April 29 Data Date
April 29 Actual start on activity
Orig Dur = 20
Actual Dur = 5
Rem. Dur = 20
Per. Complete Type = Dur.
Dur. Complete = 0%
Sched. % Complete = 45% - how is this possible.
float -39.
Should I tell the contractor it has to be wrong to have used 5 days because the actual is on the data dates so cold not have used 5 days but a bigger question is how can the Sched % complete show 45% -seems high to me, I do not understand it.
