How to save money and time with design assist specialist?
What do you think is the most impressive piece of planning in history, in terms of the complexity of the task and successful outcome. Was it Operation Overlord,(D-Day), the Manhattan Project, the Apollo Program, the LHC or something else? This seemed like a good forum to ask. I know it is quite subjective, but I am very interested to hear your opinions.

Activity has units stored in November 2015 of -70000 (but no value in the cost) but is finshed in December 2015 then in the September of 2016 the same activity has units of +70000 (but no cost).
if i try to zero the period it just causes the units to go up/down by whatever i put the costs up/down as.
do i need to unfinish the activity change it then finish it?
i dont know how the activity has units but no cost.

I have got below assignment.
Create Project Plan for introduction of new product. • Project Plan must encompass all aspects of project from design to launch. Rough Time scales • Product leadtime – 12 weeks • Production time – 2 weeks Note: Accuracy of time for workpackages can be guessed. How to proceed with such question?
Hi ive been asked to put in some costs for one of our projects.
the month of november has costs of £18.31 so i status the activity and update to next data date. after data date i store period performance so £18.31 shows on resource assignement tab and activity usage spreadsheet etc.
Im fine up to here.
Now when i try and put in the next months costs of £46,546 and store the period the two figure spread together.
i want the previous saved cost to freeze and not change but every time i try to change the next months period/cost they spread.
Hi,
As a Planner what is the best way/steps to convince site managers about sequence and duration of programme because on the sites they always have a conflict with the Planner about the programme and that is the reason site manager prepare their own programme to follow rather than they follow construction programme which is accurate and accepted by Client and Design Team.
How to minimise this conflict between planner and site manager on programme issue?
Experts please advise asap.

Hello all,
I´d like to perform a What If scenario for my managers where we could see the possible reduction in our schedule by using Overtime, and second shifts, and also show the Cost Impact of this decision in order to see if this is a good option for the project.Have you done something like this before?
Having emailed 150 copies of a Typical Project Planning Procedure to PP members at their request I thought that I might raise the subject of the quality of the planning work we are all busy producing. How do we assure/assess our work? A lot of recent reports say that despite the efforts of a lot of organisations to codifiy and professionalise the subject in the real world projects are consistently delivered late and over budget, company's are going bust and the courts are full of contract desputes.
In higlighted line why my budgets units calculating from unit % completion as i selected Physical % completion and in project settings also i changed to Physical.
Kindly reply how to update i want my budgte popints calculated from physical % completion i tried all methods but no use.
i want actual budget units comes 50% as physical instead of 27% of Units %
Here's why it's best practice to make schedule time buffer visible http://ow.ly/L8oU3064Pa5
