This graphic shows the number of each relationship type in the schedule updates
to be linked to an incomplete task (e.g. not a completed task, LOE, etc.) There are a number of start to finish task in the schedule the usage of which is highly discouraged due to the ambiguous nature of the tie. Eliminate SF relationships where possible and replace these with more suitable schedule ties (e.g. FS, SS).path.
Schedule Analytics - Relationship Tie Check
Notes:
Case Study 1
Description Observations Actions
This graphic summarizes the various constraint types in the schedule. Hard constraints which
accurately report the project's critical path. As of the May 2012 update, all hard constraints have been eliminated with the overall number of constraints dropping as well. This is a positive trend in the quality of the schedule. Excessive use of constraints impedes ability to determine the project’s critical path Increasing constraints could indicate ‘lazy’/ bad scheduling
Schedule Analytics - Hard Constraint Check
Notes:
Case Study 1
Description Observations Actions
This chart shows the distribution of the float values reported in the schedule for all of the remaining tasks. Over 50% of tasks have over 70 days of float. For a project with only 13 months of remaining duration, this percentage is excessive and may be an indication of missing logic ties. Ensure that all tasks are properly linked to the project's completion milestone and that the float is accurately reported
Schedule Analytics - High Float Check
Notes:
Case Study 1
Description Observations Actions
This chart shows the distribution of the durations reported in the schedule for all of the remaining tasks. Since the schedule is updated on a monthly basis, the target should be to have as many activities as possible with a duration of one month or less. In the latest update, about 60% of tasks fall into that category. Where possible, tasks should be broken down into a higher level of detail to improve the ability to track progress on a monthly basis.

CP&I – Selected thought leadership
Risk management and schedule management on mega-projects. Since your day-to-day business is construction, you know construction projects are inherently risky. Managing this risk is essential and, like any other important management or oversight function, is either done well or it is a wasted effort that can risk everything. Capital project owners have focused on improving governance structures; yet too many projects still fail to deliver on cost, schedule or quality commitments. The consequence of failure can be public embarrassment and disappointed stakeholders Quantitative risk analysis. As major capital projects are subjected to greater regulatory and political scrutiny, the pressure on contractors to meet tight schedule and budgetary constraints
impacts, which leads to an erosion of confidence in reaching those targets. Having a systematic quantitative risk analysis process in place to gauge the confidence level of the project’s cost and schedule is important for establishing realistic expectations. Schedule analytics tools As capital project spend increases and aggressive deadlines are built into project schedules, the reliance on accurate, transparent and meaningful schedule practices is growing. Too often, major projects suffer from missed milestones, schedule slippage and delays with no way of determining recovery plans or realistic forecast completion dates. Optimizing capital project delivery. A major US utility was finalizing its plans to construct new plants costing several billion dollars. Working in a highly regulated environment, the client recognized the importance of a strong control environment to manage the project. The client requested a governance readiness review to determine whether its systems and controls could support a project of this magnitude and complexity.
