Theory of Constraints, Critical Chain Project Management, Lean : industry consulting & training - Marris Consulting
What is the Critical Chain Project Management? Explanation in 3 minutes
Critical Chain explained through an example in the watchmaking industry
This short video features John, a project manager at an engineering-to-order company specialised in watchmaking, who is responsible for the management of customer orders. After the receipt of a new order for a customized watch and its initial project planning, he realizes that the estimated end date significantly exceeds the deadlines requested by the client. He then decides to implement the Critical Chain Project Management methodology. He discovers:
-
How to shorten the durations of different tasks by removing the individual margins within each task.
-
How to protect against uncertainties and variability by implementing a project buffer, i.e., the pooling of individual buffers to secure the project as a whole.
-
Which elements require particular attention to ensure the project is executed without any waste of time, i.e., the tasks located on the Critical Chain of his project.
