A new thread was posted two days ago on my website's new Discussion FORUM by a guy named Thomas Boyle. It explains that it has enhanced its Logic Analyzer software add-on to MSP to include critical path drag calculation.
Needless to say, I am delighted at thought that Microsoft Project users will be able to use an automated tool to compute this new but "critical" CPM metric. (As far as I know, the only package that currently computes drag out-of-the-box is Spider Project.)
Mr. Boyle is basically asking for input about how MSP users would see themselves using drag calculation and how they feel the algorithm would be most helpful.
(If by any chance, you are lost about critical path drag, you can find lots of articles on my blog just by searching on the "critical path drag" tag. And exercises in computing both drag and drag cost can be found here.
Fraternally in project management,
Steve the Bajan
