• Many Issues to Overcome
• Changes to Work Centers
• Changes to Critical Paths
• Changes Basic Start/Finish Dates
Changes to Work Centers
• Due to the last minute changes to the way the turnaround was to be billed, we had to replace the planned work centers to reflect the newly
created work center that was to bill at a higher rate.
(Turnaround Rate)
Mass Change saved the day
Planning Board made shifting work orders, to mirror real world activities, much more user
friendly and accurate.
Planning Board used for Manpower Leveling
Monitoring Manpower Needs by Work Centers & Adjust with Mass Change based on
Workload per Work Center
Work could then be re-distributed to balance Work Load
Mass Change was used to update Priority Changes as they occurred, monitoring
Critical Path
Post Turnaround activities means only on thing, Getting ready for the Next One

Past
