Abstract

To tackle problems in traditional project system, CCPM (Critical Chain Project Management) was introduced by Goldratt(1997) to identify both task dependence and resource conflicts as main constraints within a project[1]. In this paper, Critical Chain software CCPM+ is utilized to automate the Critical Chain planning process on an example project, from which more in-depth discussions are made based on computerized simulation process by CCPM+. It includes the investigation on the influence of different parameter values on project duration and buffer sizing.
