Abstract
Currently there are no formal decision tools or guidelines to assist owners and managers in choosing delivery systems and strategies that would allow significant reductions in the cycle time. The development of a decision aid that would allow a manager to prioritize and apply cycle reduction techniques would be a valuable tool for achieving cycle time reduction in projects. This paper presents a new high performance delivery system called project manager's game planner PMGP designed to assist a decision maker in identifying and utilizing an optimal set of radical reduction techniques RRTs with the greatest potential for success in achieving cycle time reduction. Additionally, the PMGP can assist the user in identifying the top RRTs during any of the five phases: preproject planning, design, material management, construction, and start-up. Most projects can utilize this PMGP to improve the performance whether to achieve significant cycle time reduction or to simply achieve effective execution.
