Hello All,

In most of Indian Construction projects (me and my friends’ experience)and a few International-which I came across, P3/P6 are mainly being used as scheduling tool and not as a complete project managemnt software to it’s full capacity-

Is it mostly the same else where..or you people use primavera for resurce management (Plant,material and people- resource loading and costing)

I am not talking about small analyses at capsule level but at an an over all project level..

Just for updating myself....

Thanks

    Hi All

    In terms of resource management, there is 2 main stream (IMHO)
    1. Resource Capacity Planning @ portfolio level
    2. Resource scheduling @ project level

    I implemented in sereval org for both options using P6.

    In order to successfully implement resource planning / scheduling, the organisation will need to have the right people and processes, to make the tools become effective. That is the biggest challenges not the tools itself.

    If I look at the tools itself, P6 do provide the integration of the project schedule as well as the flexibility.
