      Great! Yes most of the Msproject points can be applied elsewhere

    How would you create a resource work Buffer for a Fixed Duration task?

      Hi Jeff, Could you give me more information I’m not sure exactly what you are after.

      @@TomStephensontraining Tom, I have an operational schedule that consists of 5 common fixed duration tasks w/ durations of 251 days. I have a group of 5 resources reserved to the schedule and are expected to spend 30% of their time working on any of these tasks throughout the year. The work forecast is a peanut butter spread. E.g. Task Tower B Support task, all resources have 5hrs/week forecasted for the entire year. However, code corruption occurs in tower B and resources burn 20 hrs/week for 4 weeks. The extra 15 hrs/week that was burned is pulled from the work in the future. Can I create a buffer to replace those future forecasted hours?

    Let's say we have given a buffer of 5 days to the project & during completion only 2 days of buffer is used. As per our schedule we have completed early by 3 days but actually we are delayed by 2 days? Doesn't it give wrong picture of the project to the client?

      Hi Yash
      Not if you are transparent with them. Explain the reasons for a buffer. If not then include buffer in something like punchlist, not my 1st. Choice though

    What about delay claim when we have such a Project Buffer (Contingency and Management reserves)?

    • @TomStephensontraining

      Yes depends on the contract and who owns the float there could be discussions and clarifications prior to signing the contract.

      Hmm sorry to hear that, seems okay when I check it. Next time I will try to increase so it works better on all systems.
