Innovative Planning and Scheduling Solutions to aide Project Management Teams

CPM Schedules can be complex and difficult for the project team to understand. What is driving the schedule, why are certain activities critical, is a specific change an impact? These questions are often asked on projects and explaining to the project team or customer can be a challenge. PMA has developed planning and scheduling solutions that more clearly convey a summary of the schedules and identify the activities that have contributed to the impacts to the critical path. These solutions are utilized by PMA for their clients. An overview of these solutions will be presented.
