Monitoring and Forecasting in Construction Projects Using Time Buffer
Abstract: The key to project management is effective performance monitoring and forecasting. The existing methods using input- output cash flow, earned value, etc. do not differentiate between work done on the critical path and work done on non-critical paths. Such methods mask the real situation and mislead the project team because progress on one path often compensate for the delay in other. The paper proposes a more effective method to facilitate …
