About this Presentation
Without technology and in particular the TOC logistical applications are limited in the impact and sustainability of an implementation. The work breakdown structure (WBS) is not a project, it is a WBS, there is no practical implementation sequence. A WBS is a technical silo, work break down of the project scope and cost. Once an independently constructed and practical, feasible project network is created – Users can reach into the WBS to extract data, costs and specification etc. for each specific task. The critical chain project management (CCPM) method is the first real addition to basic PM since the 50’s and 60’s when digitizing a PERT, Gantt into a calendar evolved. Resource contention, uncertainty and variability were ignored or assumed to have little impact of project outcomes. To date the average delivery performance of a non-CCPM project, across any industry or discipline is < 50% measured by on-time delivery, original scope and budget. CCPM has elevated this to a significantly higher level of delivery performance. Technology has opened up a whole new world of questions with new answers – this means new possibilities and new solutions.
