Section 2A. Schedule Development

Once a project is defined and contracted, a detailed schedule is developed based on milestones and phases from conceptual planning. The schedule models the stakeholder processes and consists of defining the scope, structure, specifications, stakeholder feedback, and cost estimates. The schedule is then created using activities, durations, relationships, constraints, resources, documentation, and undergoes quality and compliance reviews. Types of schedules include baselines, executive summaries, integrated master schedules, area master schedules, look-ahead schedules, daily schedules, targets, updates, revisions, and recovery schedules.

Section 2A.

Schedule Development

Once the project is defined and the contract awarded a detailed schedule of the work is developed.
This detailed schedule is often based upon milestone dates and phasing information developed in the
conceptual planning phase. The intent of the detailed schedule development is to model the
processes that the stakeholders will use in the creation of the project.

Schedule development consists of two (2) main sections:


o Input and Data.
9 Define Schedule Scope.
9 Breakdown Structure Relationships.
9 Schedule Specification.
9 Feedback from Stakeholders.
9 Cost Estimate Model.
o Creating Schedule.
9 Types of Schedule.
9 Activities.
9 Durations.
9 Relationships.
9 Constraints and Calendars.
9 Cost and Resource Loading.
9 Schedule Quality Analysis and Compliance Review.
9 Schedule Basis Documentation.

A schedule model is the planned effort necessary to complete the program/project successfully within
the constraints and assumptions the parties have established. Based on this definition it is imperative
that each of the stakeholders has a part in the design and review process for the schedule.

Types of schedules include:


o Baseline schedule.
o Control level schedules:
o Level 1 – Milestone / Executive summary.
o Level 2 – Contract master / Detailed integrated.
o Level 3 – Area master / Contract.
o Level 4 – Control – 2-3 Week Look-ahead schedules.
o Level 5 – Daily / Hourly.
o Target schedules.
o Progress update schedules.
o Fragmentary and work schedules.
o Major revisions to the schedule, if significant conditions have changed.
o Recovery / Acceleration schedules.
