Comments on: Is Your Project Schedule Dynamic? http://www.pmhut.com/is-your-project-schedule-dynamic Wed, 23 May 2012 10:59:49 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Dina Garfinkel, PMP http://www.pmhut.com/is-your-project-schedule-dynamic/comment-page-1#comment-19354 Dina Garfinkel, PMP Wed, 24 Mar 2010 02:21:02 +0000 http://www.pmhut.com/?p=5023#comment-19354 One way to keep the schedule dynamic and more easily manageable is by making the work estimates in ranges. Each task is estimated in ranges and then the person working on the task can update the low/high amount of work left to be done regularly when they log their time. This will automatically update the schedule. So, with the workers logging these changes to the tasks the PM can focus on the other aspects of keeping the schedule up to date and priorities in check.

But not all your team members even need it. If all they need to do is view the file, they can use http://www.steelray.com/projectviewer.php. This is a great tool for that very purpose. But making your schedule dynamic isn't really about what kind of software you use, as much as it's about how you schedule your project. Project, of course, is very helpful.
