Compensation of delay caused by activity

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

During the execution phase, it is observed certain activities have taken more duration than the planned.

At this juncture, to cover up the deviation, is there any facility to understand where this lagging can be compensated.

Or, can i use the reduction functionality, to compensate the delay caused by the already executed activities?

warm regards

the quesion is, do you want to compensate the time technically or for your real business case.

Technically you can simply shorten the duration or maintain the remaining duration or forecast fnishdate to compensate the delay. Surely you can using reduction functionality.

In the real life, either the you need more capacity (e.g. instead a person using multipe persons) or the person has to to the night shift.

you need to schedule the network and analyse the critical path (the networks shown in red) obviuosly these cannot be extended as it will impact the project

so lagging could be compensated in activites that have some float (non critical)

alternatively if that is not possible then you need to use reduction functionality
