ACCURACY OF SCHEDULE UPDATE INFORMATION

I have noticed at times that the information coming for schedule update is not accurate. We therefore get results which do not reflect the true picture of the project. This becomes the Planner’s problem. Any suggestions and experiences on how to increase the accuracy and also to get the update information on time.

    Is this a P3 specific question? It seems more appropriate for the general planning forum.

    In general, the degree of detail in the plan will affect the accuracy of progress reporting. The more detail in the plan, the less guesswork is involved in estimating completion for a given task.

    Hi Kris,

    I’m with Harry about the accuracy of the information, An old verbatim in computer says "The computer will only process what you input" GIGO.

    I have been using P3 since the DOS version and I haven’t encountered their scheduling tool inaccurate. Maybe we have to check the setting or links,lags or constraints of the programme before we schedule the programme.

    Next time when you encounter it, tell us which"inaccurate" information you are referring to. and maybe we can offer some more ideas. JUST A Thought!

    Regards,

    Richard
