The LiquidPlanner Methodology
A simple approach that's easy, effective, and professional
|
Remember the days when the project manager held the keys to the castle? When you had to wait for the weekly project status meeting to find out whether progress was on track? When getting an accurate copy of the project schedule was harder than cracking the Rubik’s cube? As management tools of all types (both personal and professional) have moved online, the “real time” expectation of always-up-to-date and always-available information has carried over to the online project management world. Scheduling multiple projects doesn't have to be hardMulti-project scheduling is where the rubber hits the road in project management. In most systems, you have a “project file” for each distinct project you’re working on. In LiquidPlanner, all projects are shown in a single view, and they’re always scheduled taking priorities, dependencies, and shared resources into account. |
Build a best case / worst case schedule |
Getting a more accurate schedule is easy. You provide simple “best case” and “worst case” (ranged) estimates of the effort it will take to complete each task. Then LiquidPlanner calculates the expected start and end dates of each task, and rolls them up for the entire project (taking any uncertainty into account). The result: schedules you can trust. |
|
Distributed & transparent project managementProject plans have long been the domain of the project manager. Usually they’re written at the beginning of the project life cycle, then filed neatly away and updated once or twice if time permits. This “map” of the project isn’t very useful tucked away in a drawer. And what team member is going to bother opening a Microsoft Project file every day? In LiquidPlanner, if the plan changes every day, that’s a good thing: it means it’s keeping up with reality. |
|
Daily project life that worksChecking estimates, confirming priority, and updating progress are incredibly simple actions. Both managers and team members get the tools they need to get the job done. Your workspace will become a data warehouse of past, present, and future projects that will help the whole team learn and grow. What makes a good process work is the level of engagement that people have with it. The LiquidPlanner methodology for getting projects done is based on simple and easy daily actions that keep the plan fresh and up to date. |
“LiquidPlanner has created an online project community that supports work in modern-style projects... far better than I have seen.”
