There are two strategies to mitigate the planning fallacy relative to project schedules, one relating to benchmarking activity durations, and the second advocates schedule risk analysis as the new normal. In support of this strategy, Dr. Gui introduces GPM schedule risk analysis and provides a demonstrative using NetRisk, the schedule risk analysis module now available with NetPoint.
12. Risked schedules are generated
in the following sequence:
A base‐case schedule portraying The baseline schedule selected
how the project would evolve with reserves schedule margin sufficient
activities at their normal durations to support the targeted
is the initial focus probability(ies) of completion
STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3
Following risk modeling, risk analysis trials
are conducted to investigate alternate
probabilistic and baseline scenarios
