XRROJECT is a specialized software system that drastically improves the project management of every company thorough useful tools, digitizing the information and implementing the CCPM method (Critical Chain Project Management).
The Critical Chain Project Management Method (CCPM) is one of the most popular strategies worldwide for managing project develop by the infamous Eliyahu M. Goldratt.
The main goal while employing this strategy is for the project to be completed on time, while the series of interrelated tasks are perceived as a single objects called “chains”. The critical path of the project ( the longest time chain of interrelated tasks) is regarded as a critical chain and the others as non-critical or supplying. In order for the project to be completed on time the critical chain must be finished on time and not each individual task which means that one common time buffer is set for the whole chain. Since this buffer is common for all tasks of the chain, each task can take time from it or if the task is finished sooner to add time to the buffer.
Each subsequent task of the chain starts as soon as the previous ends rather than waiting for a specific start time. The use of the buffer is regarded as normal and it does not mean that a task is late. The important thing is that the critical chain is being completed on time which is also the main advantage of this method – it provides clear and accurate picture of current project progress related to the deadline.
