Description
The key to successful construction project control is the fusing of cost to schedule, enabling the management of one to help the management of the other. This requires that a task's cost and its duration have a direct relationship, not an arbitrary assignment by the scheduler. Ensuring that the relationship is correct and setting the appropriate baseline for tracking is the domain of the project control analyst.This course fills a void in the area of project control as applied in the construction industry today. It demonstrates how productivity models for an individual project are created, monitored, and controlled and how corrective actions are implemented as deviations from the baseline occur.Course Objectives:By completing this course, you will be able to:Integrate the schedule and budgetCalculate and analyze project progressAnalyze and report variances in schedule and costRecognize trends and forecasting performancePerform acceleration and schedule compressionCourse Curriculum:Introduction and the BasicsIntroduction to Project ControlPre-Construction PlanningThe ScheduleThe BudgetIntegrating the Schedule and the BudgetCalculating and Analyzing ProgressAnalyzing and Reporting Variances in Schedule and CostRecognizing Trends and Forecasting PerformanceProductivityAcceleration and Schedule CompressionResource ManagementRisk ManagementTextbook:This course is based on the following textbook:Project Control: Integrating Cost and Schedule in Construction (2013); Authors: Wayne J.
