A Critical Look at Critical Chain Project Management
@article{Raz2004ACL, title={A Critical Look at Critical Chain Project Management}, author={T. Raz and R. Barnes and D. Dvir}, journal={Project Management Journal}, year={2004}, volume={34}, pages={24 - 32} }
Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) has emerged in the last few years as a novel approach for managing projects. In this paper the authors analyze the principles of CCPM, starting with a review of its key elements: reduction of duration estimates; buffer calculations; task completion notification; progress measurement; and priority setting. The authors continue with a CCPM critical analysis using evidence in the research literature and in practice. The points addressed include duration… CONTINUE READING
