Title Statement:Fundamentals of scheduling & resource leveling [electronic resource] / Tammo Wilkens.

Abstract:A well-developed project schedule provides project managers with the guidance they need to monitor and control their project's progression. But only when project managers fully understand the process of developing and analyzing schedules can they effectively realize a project that meets its stakeholders' scheduling goals. This paper examines two processes--critical path method (CPM) and resource leveling--that play an instrumental role in developing effective project schedules and achieving scheduling objectives. In doing so, it outlines the eight basic steps involved in creating and updating a project schedule; it defines CPM and explains its purpose as well as its two calculations--the forward pass and the backward pass. It also summarizes three CPM concepts: total float, free float, and schedule analysis. It then outlines the process of performing resource leveling, describing the challenge, the criteria, the steps, and the process involved in doing so.
