Research on Project Schedule Management for a Central and Local Co-construction Research Platform Based on Critical Chain

Abstract

In this paper, a research and development platform constructing project is introduced. The critical chain theory is used to manage this project in order to improve the effectiveness and stability. The characteristics and restraining factor of this kind of project is presented firstly. After researching on the critical chain theory, a novel project process management method is provided and the project buffer is calculated. Project constructing practice shows that the critical chain method can be used on this kind of platform building item effectively.
