MS Project Training, Why it is Important?

Microsoft Project is a complex scheduling tool with many features and functions. In addition, the product is the standard for project scheduling in the project management industry. For example, the software enables project managers to build, manage and track project schedules from the simple, to highly complex.

On the other hand, learning how to use the MS Project scheduling software is not always easy. Fortunately it does not have to be this way. Once you learn a handful of techniques with MS Project, you will begin to feel move confident using it. Consequently, after continued use it will become less complex and your confidence will increase

Microsoft Project, from the complex to simple.

The Project Professional scheduling engine is powerful, yet complex. For instance, lets look at how to handle a delayed task. Some project managers first instinct would be to change the Start Date to the actual date the task started. As a result, this may have several negative effects. For instance, it will immediately stamp the task with an Actual Start date. To clarify, this is because the Start Date was not dynamically determined based on task dependencies and lags/leads. Second, depending on the Task Type, changing the Start Date may not alter the Finish Date. This could in turn alter the amount of Work. The Task Types of Fixed Work, Fixed Duration, Fixed Units play an important role in scheduling.

A Better Solution for Scheduling

What to do when looking at a Gantt Chart and seeing slipping tasks. Although there are several solutions, a better method to delay the Start Date of a task would be to incorporate a Lag. To clarify, a Lag in MS Project is merely a delay inserted prior to a tasks Start Date. When you create a Lag, you do so by entering the number of days the lag should be.microsoft project training by Integent

Therefore, if a task should be delayed by one calendar week, we would specify a Lag of 5 days. As a result, this method will leave all
other data points intact (Work, Actual Start, etc.)

What Is Baseline?

After you have created your project plan and finalized all the details it is time to take a snapshot. To clarify, a baseline is a copy of all
the underlying data of your project schedule, including project resources information. Baselines show a picture of the project plan at a particular point in time.

As a result, during project tracking you will be able to determine if your project is progressing according to schedule. Consequently, if there are approved scope changes, MS Project allows for multiple Baselines. As a result, additional baselines may be taken to incorporate approved scope changes. Students will learn how to take
project baselines in Microsoft Project as well as complete baseline control.

Variance Analysis

Your project was finalized and now it is in execution. As a result, variance analysis must be done on your project. Variance analysis should be performed every reporting period. Variance analysis is the process of comparing actual progress and remaining estimates against the original baseline.
Consequently, you will be able to determine if the schedule is slipping or costs are being exceeded. Above all, this is the time we want to identify potential issues and implement corrections. Consequently, it is the corrections that will get the project back on schedule. Microsoft PPM Training knowledge

Project saves five task values in the project baseline and as such calculates five types of task variance:
• Duration variance
• Start variance
• Finish variance
• Work variance
• Cost variance
Monitoring these values and more will be the key to the success of your project. As a result, these are key items addressed in our MS
Project training course.

Project Closure

The final stage of every project should be the closing stage. That is to say the project is complete and the activities associated with project completion must be performed. For example, documents associated with the project should be completed. In addition, a lesson learned meeting should be held and documented, as well as project team members
released to other projects.

When it comes to the project file there are a few cleanup
tasks as well, such as:
• Enter Actual progress as necessary
• Set all Milestone tasks to 100% Complete as necessary
• Incorporate lessons learned into the project template
• Cancel tasks that are not necessary
