Andy, I'm trying to better understand your reason for multiple endpoints. Let me ask: Is there a bunch of development work in the project plan and THEN you...
Hi, Andy I do not use ProChain any more, but reading Rob's book the other day indicated it can use multiple end points. I don't know why they added that...

Hi, Andy I may not have your network quite right, or the tasks you want as key deliverables with dates, but here is an illustration of what I might do. One of...
A different Jack can tell you about the MS Project options because I ran into exactly this problem recently. In a given MS Project file, you can only have one...
Probably under "Tools | Options | Calendar" has "hours per day" set and "days per month" set to cause the issue you're having, Larry. Check that. _____ From:...
Hi, Jack I only use one Standard Calendar. I never use separate resource or task calendars. If I open a new file, and put in 10 days on one task line (five...
Tools menu / Options / Calendar tab controls how project interprets your INPUT. It is there that you tell it that when you enter a week it means 5 (or 7!) days...
Andy - <<So for me it looks like it can calculate the critical chain with multi end points, but calculates a slightly different project duration of the same ...
Hello, I know this topic is directly TOC related, but due to the fact that there are many expert internet users on this list, I wanted to ask help on the ...
As Mike K pointed out in an earlier email the Tools, Options, Calendar tab-is where one tells Microsoft project what a Day or a Week means in terms of work...
Hi, Michael Thank you. That was it. I probably changed it to do some sample projects working every day, some time ago, and then forgot about it and the fact...
Hi, Rob Thanks. Yes, it is a subordination question. Even though Concerto includes Mileston buffers, the task priority (at least default) drives from the...
I've been pretty happy with the free Jetbrains Omea Reader. Been using it for years. It doesn't prioritize, but it does provide an interface much like your...
This is an area of my interest (the tools and the application of them to meet my larger goals)... There are a few services out there that attempt to point you...
Hi, Jack Thanks. As usual, I created my problem. I had 56 hours per week in the options, but five 8-hour working days on the calendar. Regards, Larry Leach...
[I did a quick search for this topic in the group archives, and was surprised this hasn't been asked - at least not in this way.] When doing TOC consulting,...
Hi Jack, this is what we do: (1) Starting with participants problems in projects and implications for business (2) old rules of project management -...
Jack - Interesting question. I think most groups have their own "standard" training of varying lengths for various situations. Much depends on what you need to...
Hi, Jack I have a standard two-day course that I do mostly for clients, and occassionaly for PMI. Did it in Amsterdam last week, and have another open one...
Not exactly about CCPM but certainly paradigm changing solutions. Published in newspaper some years ago, this is the solution some cities have adopted to...
Hi, Santiago Having just spent 10 days in Amsterdam, I enoyed what I consider a far superior solution in work. The solution is to ride bikes and trolleys. ...
Hi, All While reading Rob Newbold's new book (which I highly recommend), one of many things that intrigued me was a simple way he uses to simulate variable...
Larry, The number of tosses needed to get a head follows Geometric distribution. Please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_distribution . If the...
Larry - Thanks for the recommendation. The coin flip is a pretty limited distribution, I'm not sure how far you can take it. You might also contact Dr. James...
