CPM scheduling courses

In this series of classes, we teach the fundamental and advanced concepts and rules of Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling, specifically designed for organizations and companies seeking team-level training.

These classes will give your team a comprehensive understanding of the terms and concepts associated with CPM scheduling.

Our training will cover CPM scheduling basics and good practices, including activity development, logic, float, criticality, and the steps for developing a baseline schedule from design drawings.

For more advanced training, we offer classes dedicated to writing effective narratives, understanding pull planning, and translating critical schedule information into actionable directions.

Additionally, this series will teach your team the basic and advanced use of Oracle Primavera, including copying, pasting, importing, and exporting files. Participating teams will also learn to develop and manipulate activities logically, including coding, organizing, and filtering activities.

Risk management courses

A properly implemented risk management plan predicts issues throughout all project phases and provides detailed contingency protocols for each scenario. The earlier risks are identified, communicated, and modeled, the more likely we will overcome them and minimize the impact on the project.

These courses will provide instruction on properly implementing a risk management program and all the elements that are part of that program. During these courses, the instructors will review all aspects of modeling and managing delays in a CPM schedule, including identifying a change, contractual requirements, developing and using fragnets, time impact analysis, and case studies of actual delays.

Potential topics

  • Introduction to risks in planning
  • Fragnet and TIA development
  • Claims and REA’s
  • Risk management

Lean scheduling courses

Lean construction aims to increase industry productivity, profits, and innovation. Pull planning is a method in which personnel, materials, information, equipment, and the like only arrive at the time and place in which they are needed to maintain the flow of the production process.

We provide lean construction hands-on training specifically designed for organizations and companies seeking to improve the schedule and organization of a construction project for all phases and functions. This course covers the fundamentals of the last planner system, pull planning, plan verification, and plan updates.

During these courses, we will teach the project delivery process, which uses Lean methods to maximize stakeholder value while reducing waste by emphasizing collaboration between project teams. Our classes will teach teams the fundamentals and implementation of the learned Lean principles.

Potential topics

  • Lean fundamentals
  • Lean practical guidelines and Last Planner
  • Pull planning
