About this Presentation

Current CCPM planning and scheduling risk management metrics are not fully leveraging the capabilities of newly available technologies. To remain relevant, the Theory of Constraints must adapt to incorporate these advancements. This session will offer a deeper understanding of the limitations of existing CCPM risk management metrics and explore why updating them is critical in today’s evolving technological landscape.

Plane
The session challenges the idea that buffers alone are sufficient, showing why managing workflow disruption provides earlier and more reliable insight into project risk.
It reveals how Critical Chain’s evolution depends on shifting from backward-looking performance metrics to forward-looking, cause-based indicators that predict problems before schedules slip.
The presentation hints at how digital dashboards, metadata, and AI make it possible to scale Critical Chain across portfolios and enterprises without losing focus on flow.
It illustrates why Critical Chain remains relevant not as a static method, but as a living system that adapts to complexity, connectivity, and modern execution environments.

Daniel P. Walsh

Daniel Walsh is a sought-after lecturer, coach, strategic thinker and is a trusted advisor to many senior corporate executives, is currently a member of numerous corporate boards. In addition, he is co-founder of Exepron©, an advanced EPPM SaaS solution based on Critical Chain methodology. His current efforts are focusing on developing synchronous enterprise value chain solutions in multiple industry sectors. His research and development are centered on identifying the need to identify and leverage the strategic constraints of the enterprise, which is the key to increasing throughput. This culminated in the development of the Integrated Enterprise Scheduling®, (IES®) solution engine. Initial empirical results from deploying the IES® in a dozen large companies over a five-year period have been very promising. Many executives and thought leaders are convinced this may very well be the unified scheduling solution required for maximizing the profit of an enterprise-wide value chain. The IES approach was chronicled when he co-authored The TOC Handbook, the seminal Theory of Constraints reference textbook.
