This may be an academic question, considering the prevalence of using 1/2 of the "safe" duration estimate approach, and also knowing that we don't have the...
Not an academic question, it appears to me. The square root rule described in several critical chain books and articles looks to me to be only part of the...
Chris, I thought that Eli recommended using a high of 80-90% while forecasting project and task related timelines. This also saves the project manager's skin...

Thanks for your thoughts (and everyone else too, I've read through all the posts this morning). I wanted to respond here to clarify what I meant and expand on...
Chris, I think I see the point you make (mean/median). The point I made about the multi-project situation is still different than yours. Selecting a drum...

FYI - This group just got blasted with a bunch of spam file uploads that I had to go clean out. As a result, I've modified the group's settings to require...
I have, I think it's the most thorough treatment on the subject. Maybe a little short on implementation, but if you want to understand CCPM very well, this...
Todd I ordered it as soon as it was released. I have read it cover to cover. When people ask me what one book to read to get started on CCPM, this is the book...
I received this at the same time as your posting: this comprehensive list covers all TOC and not just project Management but might be worth seeing: A number of...
