More Than a List of Activities
A well-developed baseline establishes the project execution plan and the benchmark against which future performance will be measured.
- Engineering and design
- Submittals and approvals
- Procurement and long-lead equipment
- Vendor fabrication and material delivery
- Mobilization and site preparation
- Construction and subcontractors
- Inspection and testing
- Mechanical completion
- Pre-commissioning and commissioning
- Turnover and contractual milestones
The Logic Network Is the Schedule
Pathline develops CPM logic around the actual execution sequence and uses constraints deliberately. Critical path should be driven by the work—not manufactured by unnecessary constraints.
Basis of Schedule
A baseline should document how it was developed, including calendars, milestones, sequencing, procurement assumptions, resource assumptions, constraints, critical path, risks and exclusions.
