Planned Vs Actual

A
AB Timo 👤 Member for 15 years

Hello All,

if you have Planned a project and after starting updating it,you find that you have entered a couple of activities that are not happening actually and Need to be deleted.What do you do??

Will you have to make another schedule?? Because if you delete those extra activities then your baseline will be disturbed and it will ultimately disturb the Logic.

Please give you opinion.

Best Regards,

Faiz

PROGRAMME ACCEPTANCE

B
BRAVE G 👤 Member for 15 years 7 months

HI, ALL

 

I  am very greatfull  to all of you who have supported me throughout this very challenging period. It my first time working as a lone planner. And the client wants 100% allignment to NEC3. 

I have made changes where necessary but they still finding error.  I have implemented the Time Risk Allowance and have shown floats as complied with NEC3.

 

The problem now is that the client is saying i should take out all the PMIS (project management instructions) and insert (EWNS) EARLY WARNINGS SIGNALS.

Critical Path Question

A
AB Timo 👤 Member for 15 years

Hello All,

If we have a group of activities that are not shown in critical path,is there a technique to bring them in the Critical path.

What My Experience so far is that primavera chooses the critical path itself when you schedule your plan.But if after schedulling you find that the critical path shown is not what you wanted and some activities are not highlighted as critical then what to do.

Please keep in mind both options i.e,

1.Critical Path When Total Float is=0

2.Select longest path as critical path.

Mandatory Finish Constraint

I would like to receive feedback from the experts in regards the following question:

Is it proper to put mandatory finish constraint on the end of contract date (Milestone)?

In my view, the date will not change if you put a constraint on it unless the date go past the data date.

Thanks

Edwin

Filtering By Responsible manager

A
AB Timo 👤 Member for 15 years

Hello All,

I have been working on a Plan for Railway Track Construction and There are Separate Resposible managers for Each WBS.I want to Filter my Plan so that i give Each Responsible manger a list of activities that he is Responsible for.For this I Created a filter by Responsibly manager and applied it,the Issue is that,

* My Plan is filtered by that responsible manager but at the same time Other WBS Headings are Still Present in the activity table (Only WBS Name Not ts Activities). I want to Show the Required activities and WBS Name only.
