Hello Kobus, what I have come to realize is that you would have a scenario as the one you have just discussed in this video, whereby the contractor has his responsibility in impacting a delay and so has the client (in my case as a result of variations) ...what I need to know is how is it fair to factor in the contractor's risk impact if at the end the contractor incurs delay damages per contract Simply put why calculate a finish variance if you are determining impact of delay in an ongoing active project?
Thanks JC for sharing this. Am I correct if I say every time you insert delays, you set a new base line? If yes, how we can record lets say 20 different delays on a project? I am asking this because we can set up to 11 baselines on microsoft project.
Please make a complete video tutorial / full course on Multi-storey bulding using MS project software ( step by step including cost analysis, reporting, EVM etc.
How do i justify that with a given set of 15 person team cannot finish the works earlier by a month when a project is scheduled to complete in say 24 months for a 3 storey building?...i am talking about evidence to show based on MS project depending on human resources only...like how much more extra men is required from curent team of 15 if to complete project by two months ahead in time?...where do i make the changes and show them extra human resource or overtime requirements based on costs also?...Please guide me,Thanks in advance.
Hi Tshering. There are quite a few MS Project concepts, terminologies and skills that need to be understood and combined to achieve this. In short, when you have resource loaded the initial schedule, you can use the effort driven task type option or Fixed work option to capture the initial production rate for each task in your schedule. Create a baseline of this. After this step, when you increase resources, it will show the decrease in duration on each task and it will demonstrate the possible time for completion given the different levels of resources applied.
