6. Lecture 6 in Oracle Primavera Ver 18.8 –Create Baselines


Create Baseline the Baseline or Target Schedule provides a point of reference on which to measure and control the underway project. Create a Baseline copy of the schedule before the first update. This will be the target against which the project’s cost, schedule, and performance are tracked. Assign each baseline a category to define its purpose (i.e. initial planning baseline, what-if project plan baseline, mid-project status baseline, monthly update comparison baseline). Categories are created under the Admin menu, Admin Categories, Baseline Types.


7. Lecture 7 in Oracle Primavera Ver 18.8 Progress Update

Update the schedule regularly and compare it to the baseline to ensure that resources are being used effectively, project costs are being monitored against the original budget, that there is a knowledge of actual duration and costs in order to initiate contingency plans if  necessary.

Ask the following questions when updating:

· What information needs to be collected to update the project and what method(s) will be used to collect information?

· Who will gather the necessary information used for the project update?

· How often should the project be updated?

· Are resources local or offsite?

· Who will need to see the results of the update and when are these results needed?

· What types of information will be generated after each update in order to communicate progress before the next update period?

Primavera P6 will calculate a summary / Level of Effort (LOE)

Lecture 14: Activity steps Preview 06:45

Activity steps

Activity steps provide a way to break activities down into smaller units and track the completion of those units. For example, the activity Prepare for System Integration and Testing might contain the following steps:

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3

You can add as many steps to an activity as you need: some activities will require more steps to complete than others and some activities might require no additional steps at all. If progress occurs on the step, enter a percent complete in the Step % Complete column, or mark the Completed checkbox to indicate the step is 100% complete.
