MICROSOFT PROJECT' FOR CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULERS

摘要

Despite some detractor's opinions, Microsoft Project®(MSP) CPM scheduling software is here to stay as many contracts are now mandating its use. Most people using MSP on construction projects find that MSP is fine for planning the work, but very difficult to use when maintaining the status and forecasting accurate project completion. MSP is also difficult to use when performing delay analyses. The good news is that you can 'make' MSP properly reflect the consequences of an update displaying proper retained logic. This article will explain how to best use MSP in place of P6 or other more status-oriented scheduling software. This article was first presented at the 2011 Annual Meeting as PS.478.
