Help Needed on Site Logistics

Hi Mangesh,

PMBOK is available on www.pmi.org and rita mulchay’s book is available on www.rmcproject.com.

You can also find some more interesting books on pmi.org website but you need to pay for all the above books.

You can have these books at discounted rates at www.amazon.com Please check

Cheers,

Hi
Clive
is there any book that could guide me on how to plan for site logistics.
means points to be considered while deciding routes on and to and from the site.

mangesh

Site Logistics Planning - Pointers.

1st - you need to plan the shortest possible route.

2nd - Make sure that egress and ingress to site is well define

3rd - Make sure that double handling of materials is minimized.

4th - How far can you delay the access area without affecting the completion date.

5th - Plan for alternative route as the project progress.

6th - Prepare a programme / schedule for delivery of materials to avoid bottlenecks and clashes on site.

I am sure there are more pointers to consider that I have not covered, worth reading some materials on site logistics.

Cheers mate,
Daniel
