Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the challenges in multi-project environments is the question how to allocate resources to assure a timely completion of all planned projects. In order to increase resource utilization, managers try to allocate all available resources at the beginning of a new cycle to all planned projects.This strategy would not allow for acting on potential risks and uncertainties. Thus, current literature on multi-project planning considers buffer concepts in various forms. The problem with these strategies is their complexities and consequently their general rejection by practitioners. In this study we address the problem of resource allocation under uncertainty by developing a counter-intuitive heuristic that is simple and effective. We developed a simulation tool allowing us to test resource allocation strategies in realistic environments. Surprisingly, the results demonstrate that resource allocation strategies with less than 100% resource allocation in the planning stage enable an overall value for a project portfolio that is close to the ideal maximum. This means that managers should keep a certain percentage of resources in the planning stage idle to encounter variations in the execution phase, enabling a maximal project portfolio value.

Book Synopsis Projects as Arenas for Renewal and Learning Processes by : Rolf A. Lundin
Download or read book Projects as Arenas for Renewal and Learning Processes written by Rolf A. Lundin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing tendency to organize various aspects of business life by projects, and to set up temporary organizations in a competition where speed and adaptability becomes a major necessity. Organizing by projects is perceived as a good way to ensure action and to stress the importance of getting work done. However, there is a need to balance the stress on action so that learning capabilities are not only retained, but augmented. Projects as Arenas for Renewal and Learning Processes provides examples of how different types of projects function from a learning or renewal perspective, taken from a wide variety of real-life environments in industrial and public organizations. This book illustrates the mistaken habit of assuming too much in the project area: for example, project notions are, in fact, culture-dependent; classical market-oriented contracting business relations do not fit with the learning dimension of projects; and long-term learning on core competencies and product development projects need to be connected. The book is also intended to represent many of the research frontiers in the project field. Enhancing learning capabilities is - or should be - of a mutual concern to researchers and managers alike.
Book Synopsis Resource Allocation in Project Management by : Christoph Schwindt
Download or read book Resource Allocation in Project Management written by Christoph Schwindt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-11-10 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is devoted to structural issues, algorithms, and applications of resource allocation problems in project management. Special emphasis is given to a unifying framework within which a large variety of project scheduling problems can be treated. Those problems involve general temporal constraints among project activities, different types of scarce resources, and a broad class of regular and nonregular objective functions ranging from time-based and financial to resource levelling functions. The diversity of the models proposed allows for covering many features arising in scheduling applications beyond the field of project management such as short-term production planning in the manufacturing or process industries.

Book Synopsis Project Scheduling by : Erik Leuven Demeulemeester
Download or read book Project Scheduling written by Erik Leuven Demeulemeester and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our objectives in writing Project Scheduling: A Research Handbook are threefold: (1) Provide a unified scheme for classifying the numerous project scheduling problems occurring in practice and studied in the literature; (2) Provide a unified and up-to-date treatment of the state-of-the-art procedures developed for their solution; (3) Alert the reader to various important problems that are still in need of considerable research effort. Project Scheduling: A Research Handbook has been divided into four parts. Part I consists of three chapters on the scope and relevance of project scheduling, on the nature of project scheduling, and finally on the introduction of a unified scheme that will be used in subsequent chapters for the identification and classification of the project scheduling problems studied in this book. Part II focuses on the time analysis of project networks. Part III carries the discussion further into the crucial topic of scheduling under scarce resources. Part IV deals with robust scheduling and stochastic scheduling issues. Numerous tables and figures are used throughout the book to enhance the clarity and effectiveness of the discussions. For the interested and motivated reader, the problems at the end of each chapter should be considered as an integral part of the presentation.

Book Synopsis Advanced Multi-Project Management by : Gerald I. Kendall
Download or read book Advanced Multi-Project Management written by Gerald I. Kendall and published by J. Ross Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even in a well-managed multi-project environment, it is not unusual to see half of all projects completed either late, over budget or with cuts to original scope. However, the proven approach presented in Advanced Multi-Project Management has enabled large, medium, and even small organizations to consistently complete their projects faster, within original scope and budget, and increase the number of projects executed with the same resources by as much as 70%. The list of companies that have used this methodology for stunning results includes some of the biggest, well-known names in the world—Boeing, Rio Tinto, ABB, and Chrysler. This guide details the six gears that must work in unison to drive speed and predictability within an organization.
Book Synopsis Managing Multiple Projects by : Michael S. Dobson PMP
Download or read book Managing Multiple Projects written by Michael S. Dobson PMP and published by AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn. This book was released on 2011-09-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let’s face it — who among us has only a single project? Multiple projects are the norm, not the exception, and there are very good reasons why this is so. A lot of projects simply aren’t big enough to justify the investment of a full-time project manager: having only one is impractical. Depending on the availability of resources, a multiple project environment can accomplish substantial work while lowering the overhead burden of project management by consolidating processes. In this book, you will learn how to recognize the characteristics and to manage effectively in each of these situations, how to plan and organize your work, how to influence other people who may not report to you in an official supervisory capacity, and how to get results. This is an ebook version of the AMA Self-Study course.

Book Synopsis One-of-a-Kind Production by : Yiliu Tu
Download or read book One-of-a-Kind Production written by Yiliu Tu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the numerous competitive advantages of one-of-a-kind production (OKP), the low efficiency and high costs associated with OKP companies threaten to push their business opportunities into the hands of cheaper overseas suppliers. One-of-a-Kind Production introduces a novel strategy and technology to help OKP companies to efficiently mass-produce customized products. In One-of-a-Kind Production, case studies from OKP companies are used to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the OKP strategy and technology. These case studies include: a structural steel construction company, a manufacturer of specifically ordered compressors and refrigeration systems, a customized high pressure vessel manufacturing company, and a custom window and door manufacturer. To help readers understand OKP strategy and technology, the authors offer a year’s free access to the OKP Management and Control Software System. This system is based on a new integrated production control and management concept, namely product production structure. It is a useful tool – and One-of-a-Kind Production is a valuable guide – for production engineers and managerial staff in manufacturing companies, as well as for university researchers and graduate students.
