In the spring semester of the academic year 2005/06 I took part in the Socrates Erasmus student exchange, writing my graduation thesis at the Project Management Centre at Istanbul Technical University. In this thesis I will present the process of planning along with its basic properties and methods, which have to be used when planning a project in the construction sector, using the expanded Critical Path Method. I included some theoretical background of resource scheduling and its possibility of using it with modern software tools, which is presented on a real project prepared by using Primavera Project Planner Version 3.1, a modern programme for planning and managing projects. The techniques I dealt with are levelling, allocation, cumulation, aggregation and smoothing. In order to control the project, the Earned value analysis is presented as well. Apart from all the aforementioned methods and techniques, I also decided to portray how the professionals in construction should use these techniques with modern software tools for managing and planning the project during its life, including the reports that are made right after a particular plan is finished, as well as other reports compiled during the project, if the project contains all necessary data. These reports are: schedule, resource/cost control, resource/cost loading, productivity, cash flow, earned value, tabular resource/cost and matrix reports made with P3. In the end, the solutions for sending and sharing project data via the web or local servers between the members of a project team, as well as the responsibilities of the latter for resource scheduling and managing the project using P3 are depicted. |
