Traditional project management has led to late, over-budget projects but there is an alternative. Learn from this paper about the impact of uncertainty on projects and how Critical Chain Project Management can mitigate risks. Several case studies are provided.

Execution Management is among the first major innovations in project management in 30 years. This white paper provides numerous results realized by Execution Management in a wide variety of organizational settings.

Multi-Project Critical Chain: Two Vital Points

Critical Chain is realizing up to 50% reductions in cycle times, while delivering an increasing number of projects on time and on target. Learn here about three counter-intuitive rules of Critical Chain and why it is important to attack policies and not behaviors.

Critical Chain project management is a reliable road to success but not a panacea. In this white paper learn about the five most important changes that drive successful Critical Chain implementation.

New product development is a special project management environment constrained by uncertainty and poor data. This paper examines Critical Chain Project Management as applied to new product development, focusing on portfolio selection, pipeline planning, and flow-based project execution.

This paper suggests that by reexamining the underlying goals of project management in various stages of the drug development process, biopharmaceutical companies can substantially increase the speed and productivity of R&D. In this paper learn about a new model of project execution in different stages of drug development.

The way to increase the throughput of projects in general is to reduce the cycle-time of individual projects, a fact with significant implications for how organizations are managed. Learn three reasons why reducing cycle time is the way to increase throughput.

Integrating Earned Value Management with Critical Chain Execution

This paper debunks the widely held assumption that Critical Chain and Earned Value Management are incompatible with one another. The paper provides practical instructions for integrating Earned Value Management with Critical Chain.

What Should Multi-Project Operations Focus On?

Should multi-project firms focus on resource utilization or cycle-time? The paper argues that there is no conflict between these two approaches while it presents new operating principles for time-based competition.

Synchronized Product Development

Businesses have to increase the rate at which they introduce new products, but without increasing engineering resources. In this paper, learn techniques for increasing the speed of product development with finite capacity.

When planning projects, the flow of work from one direct resource is taken into account, while the flow of management interactions is ignored. In this article learn two strategies for preventing management bottlenecks in projects.
