Critical Chain Project Management

In CCPM two durations are estimated for each: an aggressive duration based on how long the task would take given full focus on the task and no problems, and a “safe” duration given full focus and typical  variation with each task. The differences between aggressive and “safe” durations for each critical task contribute to a pooled “project buffer” which is adjusted for the project as a whole. The end of the project buffer is the team’s “commit date” and the buffer protects the project from uncertainty
Managers and leadership need to provide clear project and task priorities and a work environment that enables single-task focus, so that each task can be completed quickly and with high quality.
