CPM – the What
- Required by Contract; Used to Determine Key Milestone Dates
- Approximately 6500 Activities
- Resource Loaded
- Not Cost Loaded
16th LCI Congress | San Francisco, CA | October 7-10, 2014
Location Based Scheduling (LBS) – the Where
- VICO was required by Contract
- BIM Software
- Utilizes Location Based
Scheduling
- Utilizes 3D Model (DWG, SKP,
DWF)

- Activities continuous
but start later
Start later when work can proceed continuously

Integration
CPM – WHAT LBS – WHERE Pull Planning – HOW 4D – WHAT/WHEN
16th LCI Congress | San Francisco, CA | October 7-10, 2014
CPM – P6 Schedule
CPM-the WHAT
Typically created in Push manner Provides planned work breakdown structure, with key milestones Created early in process
16th LCI Congress | San Francisco, CA | October 7-10, 2014
CPM – P6 Schedule
LBS-the WHERE
Helped Create a Better Master Plan Identified in P6 where Remaining Durations should be Modified to account for real world production Provides “should start” dates rather than CPM early start or late start dates Ensures continuous work between locations Identified bottle necks & inefficiencies
16th LCI Congress | San Francisco, CA | October 7-10, 2014
CPM – P6 Schedule Pull Planning Used CPM Milestones to Create 3 to 6 Week Detailed Schedules Actuals in P6 would Reflect the Promises Kept by the Trades Communication – Trades; Last Planners of the Work Flushed Out Field Conflicts and Issues Prior to starting the work Create Daily Measurable Detailed Tasks and then held the Trades accountable
PULL – the HOW
16th LCI Congress | San Francisco, CA | October 7-10, 2014
CPM – P6 Schedule P6 Schedule Imported to Create 3D Project Animation 3D conflicts led to Logic changes in the CPM Communication – Master Plan with the Hospital and Trades
4D – the WHAT / WHEN
Displayed actual field conditions for better planning Allowed for what-if scenarios
