About this Presentation
This presentation by Andrew Kay of TOC3 and Dan Heerding, CIO of Megara will unpack the key elements required to deliver a successful project with CCPM, in a highly volatile, unpredictable environment where none of the collaboration partners know anything about TOC nor CCPM. The Project involves the separation of shared Information, Telecommunication infrastructure and administration functions between 2 businesses under the same ownership structure. It was imperative to do this without disruption to normal business especially as the businesses approached their peak season. From the 20 plus years of experience, Dan Heerding, has found ad hoc projects of this nature to rapidly spin out of control requiring significant additional time and effort. Often with budget overruns, frequent disruption to day to day business transactions, coupled with high stress, and the inevitable late delivery. The presentation will walk through the project timeline from inception to end and highlight the many potentially damaging curve balls that could/would derail the project. We show how these where quickly and calmly dealt with to recover buffer penetration and avert time blow-outs. CCPM allowed us to identify and resolve issues quickly through active engagement, collaboration and delivery of context with our partners. By the end we can say we managed to tame a dragon. The presentation assumes a basic knowledge of CCPM.
What Will You Learn
To help you get the most value from this session, we’ve highlighted a few key points. These takeaways capture the main ideas and practical insights from the presentation, making it easier for you to review, reflect, and apply what you’ve learned.
Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) was instrumental in delivering a technically complex project on time, within budget and full spec, even in a volatile and unpredictable environment.
CCPM can help in gaining consensus, collaboration and overcoming obstacles, making it a powerful tool for project management.
The use of CCPM allowed for smooth and solid progress with relative calm, de-risking the project and ensuring successful delivery.
