Planning
Part – I:
Planning:
Time Planning:
• Project Work Breakdown: This means breaking down the scope of
project work into its constituent sub projects, tasks, work packages and activities.
• Modelling and analysing networks: This include developing logic diagrams or
sub-networks to develop a time planning model and analysing it to determine the
project completion time.
• Scheduling Work Programme: This involves putting plan on calendar basis and
using the scheduled programme to forecast inputs and outputs.
Resource Planning:
• Forecasting Input and Output: Input and Output forecasting aids in
conceptualizing the project. It indicates the Quantum of resources required for
executing a project and the output expected.
• Planning Construction Work Force: It primarily focuses on determining the size of
the project work force, its structuring into functional groups and workers’ teams
and scheduling the manpower recruitment/ induction to match the task
requirements.
• Planning Construction Materials: It involves identifying the materials required,
estimating quantities, defining specifications, forecasting requirements, locating
sources for procurements, getting material samples approved, designing materials
inventory and developing the procurement plan to ensure a smooth flow of
materials till the connected construction works are completed at the project site.
• Planning Construction Equipment: It aims at identifying the construction tasks to
be undertaken by mechanical equipment, assessing the equipments required,
exploring the equipment procurement options and finally participating in the
decision making for the selective equipment.
• Planning Construction Standard Costs: It aims at the integration of planning
judgement, costing techniques and accounting disciplines for the development of
standard costs, financial forecasts, project budget and cost control measures.
• Planning Construction Budget: The purpose of such planning is to assign financial
targets and resources to reach functional group so as to establish some basis for
controlling their performance and to make participants plan with cost
consciousness instead of purposeless routine working.
Project Control/ Implementation Process:
• Project control Methodology: This acts on a common language of understanding.
It defines the performance parameters to be controlled and outlines the
performance accounting and monitoring processes.
• Controlling Resource Productivity: This aims at ensuring efficient utilization of
the inputs of men, materials and equipments by identifying cause of their wastage
as well as affecting improvements to minimize it.
• Controlling Costs: It aims at restraining of expenditure within the predefined
limits. It involves the processing of reports received from various responsibilities
centres relating to the cost incurred.
• Controlling Time: It involves the monitoring of time status by updating the project
networks and time schedules, reviewing duration of balance activities, computing
deviation and evaluating the implications of deviation project time objectives by
time analysing the project network.
