Big opportunities tomorrow.
This program trains planners in advanced scheduling techniques, critical path analysis, resource leveling, and optimization to deliver projects on time and within constraints.
The Scheduling & Resource Optimization Program focuses on effective project planning, scheduling control, and optimal utilization of manpower and equipment. Scheduling fundamentals include project scheduling concepts, CPM basics, milestone planning, and planning objectives. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) development covers scope integration, activity definition, and coding standards. Resource loading and leveling address manpower assignment, manpower curves, equipment loading, and resource smoothing techniques. Critical path analysis includes float analysis, constraint identification, recovery planning, and impact analysis. Short interval planning covers look-ahead schedules, weekly planning, daily targets, and feedback loops. Progress measurement includes physical progress measurement, earned value basics, and productivity tracking. Forecasting methods support proactive decision making. Resource optimization techniques include bottleneck analysis, trade balancing, shift optimization, and crew sizing. Shutdown and turnaround scheduling covers TA sequencing, parallel work control, time compression strategies, and risk buffers. Tools and software include Primavera basics, MS Project overview, reporting dashboards, and data integrity. Reporting and stakeholder communication cover progress reporting, management reviews, client coordination, and decision support.
The module highlights how thoughtful planning can directly improve project quality, reduce accidents, and help projects finish on time and within budget.
