Can you predict the impact of a schedule change on the project plan? Are your project schedules
constructed using techniques that improve their effectiveness?
A project schedule should be an effective and predictive tool for managing critical IT projects, but
many organizations fail to apply schedule management best practices. They fall into traps such as
using percent complete instead of understanding what is really left to do and how long it will take.
Whether it's helping clients improve an existing schedule or determine the real critical path for
a large integrated schedule, we can provide the consulting, mentoring, or coaching project teams require:
- If you're "what if" planning, we can help you build proposed project schedules – these can be key
inputs to your project selection process
- If you've moving forward with a project, we can help you build a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
and a complete, predictive and effective project schedule. This positions you to better plan,
manage and status both the work and the resources
- If you're already into a project and realize that your project schedule does not reflect the
project's current reality, or does not effectively help you predict the impact of project changes,
we can help you correct that situation–we can evaluate your schedule and identify the problem
areas, and we can update your schedule for you.
