Harun Saja Nice of you to share this.

It is important for those who might be new to developing schedules to start by using simple scheduling tools such as this. You need to develop an understanding of the ingredients necessary to build a schedule, be it for a design effort, construction project, or any group of related tasks that have a "Start" and a "Finish." Don't worry about all of the advanced features that are offered by MSProject, Primavera P6, etc. at first. You can build extremely useful, easy-to-manage schedules with simple tools like this.

Remember: A schedule is only as good as the data that it is based on. It doesn't need to be complex, it just needs to be understandable and updatable.

I've been in the construction industry for 30+ years and have seen, built and worked with, literally, hundreds of schedules. In this article, I offer some tips and ideas that might help you develop your own scheduling "style." Feel free to reach out to me if I can ever be of help - Cheers!!!
