Find out the benefits you'll get when you enroll in a diploma in project management course.

1. Diploma in Project Management

2. Learn about Schedule Control (Outputs) in
the Diploma in Project Management
qualification.

3. Schedule Model Data (Updates). A project schedule
update is any modification to the project schedule model
information that is used to manage the project.
Appropriate stakeholders are notified of significant
modifications as they occur.
New project schedule network diagrams are developed to
display approved remaining durations and modifications to
the work plan. In some cases, project schedule delays can
be so severe that development of a new target schedule
with revised target start and finish dates is needed to
provide realistic data for directing the work, and for
measuring performance and progress.

4. Schedule Baseline (Updates). Schedule revisions are a
special category of project schedule updates. Revisions are
changes to the schedule’s start and finish dates in the
approved schedule baseline.
These changes are generally incorporated in response to
approved change requests related to project scope changes
or changes to estimates. Development of a revised
schedule baseline can only occur as a result of approved
changes.

5. Performance Measurements. The calculated schedule
variance (SV) and schedule performance index (SPI)
values for WBS components, in particular the work
packages and control accounts, are documented and
communicated to stakeholders.

6. Requested Changes. Schedule variance analysis, along
with review of progress reports, results of performance
measures, and modifications to the project schedule
model can result in requested changes to the project
schedule baseline. Project schedule changes might or
might not require adjustments to other components of the
project management plan.

7. Recommended Corrective Actions. A corrective action is
anything done to bring expected future project schedule
performance in line with the approved project schedule
baseline. Corrective action in the area of time management
often involves expediting, which includes special actions
taken to ensure completion of a schedule activity on time or
with the least possible delay.
Corrective action frequently requires root cause analysis to
identify the cause of the variation. The analysis may address
schedule activities other than the schedule activity actually
causing the deviation; therefore, schedule recovery from the
variance can be planned and executed using schedule
activities delineated later in the project schedule.

8. Organisational Process Assets (Updates). Lessons
learned documentation of the causes of variance, the
reasoning behind the corrective actions chosen, and other
types of lessons learned from schedule control are
documented in the organisational process assets, so that
they become part of the historical database for both the
project and other projects of the performing organisation.

9. Activity List (Updates). The activity list is updated with
all schedule activities that are planned to be performed on
the project.
Activity Attributes (Updates). The activity attributes
are updated. (See section relating to Activity Definition:
Outputs for a more detailed description).

10. Project Management Plan (Updates). The schedule
management plan component of the project management
plan is updated to reflect any approved changes resulting
from the Schedule Control process, and how the project
schedule will be managed.
