Project Time Management – Learning Launch Tool

Challenge and Selection

A construction business has to deal with a lot of important and time-consuming works all  together that it becomes had to manage the staff and the resources to complete the project  under a given period of time. The problems could affect in lack of productivity and time of  completion due to lack of project management and resource management – both human and  materials.

To solve the problem, one must first analyze on what are the necessary factors that needs to be  checked to complete the project in time. Data could be collected from the previous projects and  also from other companies of similar working capacity that follow a proper project management  and understand the different strategies that could be applied to improve and increase the  productivity.

Application

Data collection could be managed by a team of people to make sure the right amount of quality  and quantity data can be sourced such that it does not include any bias and also helps to  provide more data within the least amount of time possible as larger samples of data helps in  understanding the overall issues and bottlenecks within the project that is preventing maximum  efficiency in completing the project. It will also help in removing the bias including the  conformation bias when producing an idea.

In the initial stages the team could put themselves in the shoes of both the clients as well as the  workers to understand what is required and what helps in providing better ideas to improve the  time within which the work can be completed. Producing ideas from the data collected will help  in eliminating the dependency on averages and guess works which would reduce efficiency in  managing the project and resources in time. Even in each of the project the improvements and  updates can be noted as more the data that can be studied, more efficient the ideas that could  be developed out of it. A general guideline can also be formed on how many workers are  necessary to do a particular function in a given and what are the material requirements to  complete the work and also the minimum required materials in case of lack of storage facilities.  It will work as a progressive improvement as the requirements of each projects varies with the  previous project. Following such a method of Launch Tool will help in performing experiments  with the data that make sure that the observations and experiments are in a way that the results  and ideas that could be formed by it is in a way that is faster as well as cheaper.

Insight and Approach

Data is collected in a particular manner that helps in understanding and clearing the key  assumptions that are formed and also through the process find out which among them works  best for the company and later finalize the assumptions through fast and cheap tests and  experiments conforming the efficiency of the ideas which will improve the management of  projects and the time required. The developed ideas are then used to in a faster and an  organized construction which will also help in boosting the efficiency of the company and also

help in providing a better name and standard in the industry. It also helps in having an edge  over other companies of the same nature by improved competition time completion standards.

The tests helped to identify what they don’t know also understanding in what areas there is a  need to obtain more information or data to provide the values for the variables which could  finding the right innovative idea.
