My client asked me to prepare a recovery schedule because we are in short negative -5% from the planned value.
Now what my client want is that my recovery curve should cross/match the baseline curve as soon as possible & further more it must be up/ahead then the baseline s-curve unless you reach between 90% to 95%.
In addition client wants to show the more manpower requirement than the baseline planned manpower.
Here what I did, I crushed the schedule & tried to get all the results as my client want, but one thing I couldn’t understand that if my Budgeted Manhours are fixed then how would I show him the more required manpower then baseline.
Let say if I changed/increased the budgeted manhours to the activities where I need more manpower so my overall actual (which I am calculating from Earned Value Labor Units) will be changed.
any good advise in this regard will be highly appriciated
thanks in advance.....!
