Successful Scheduling by Keeping the Promise and Completing the Schedule

Abstract

This chapter explains how the planner uses spreadsheets from ACE Team Process for determining reliable planning times for the schedule. It also includes how three types of allowances are added to the benchmark time to get a reliable planning time for the schedule: travel time, miscellaneous allowances, and personal fatigue and delay allowances. This also provides an accurate backlog based on labor hours and current craft performance. We also look at defining a firm schedule in coordination with operations and available craft hours, as well monitoring, controlling, and execution of scheduled work.
