Description

Welcome to this course on the production planning process. Production planning is concerned with how project activities are going to be carried out. Production planning establishes the methods to be used, the assignment of personnel, the movement of material to the workface, and the process of assembling the pieces. Production planning begins well before the project is mobilized in the field and continues throughout the project until all field operations are closed out. The initial effort required to plan for production is similar to that required for project planning.
Before addressing the fundamentals of production planning, two additional topics of project planning must be discussed: the planning team and reengineering the project. This is a key point in the project where the project manager interacts with the field supervisor. Many of the management responsibilities are handed off to the supervisor, who will take on the day-to-day responsibilities to execute the work in the field.
