About the Book

This book is a comprehensive, stand alone reference for project scheduling. It includes complete coverage of scheduling from the basics to advanced applications along with a detailed tutorial on the four most popular software programs--Primavera Project Planner (P3), SureTrak, P3e/c, and Microsoft Project. Having scheduling information and software instructions in one book obviates the need for two texts, and the exercises and examples in the scheduling portion are tied to the same exercises in the software portions.
