Designed
an integrated project plan process using Microsoft Project.This consisted of over 50 concurrent project plans linked by a common
resource pool.Project plans were
source controlled thru checkout / checkin.Customized the MsProject plans with over 200 components (Fields, Tables,
Views, Filters, Forms, Calendars, Macros).Used Visual Basic for Applications in Excel, Outlook & Access to
develop the following automation.
Created
a weekly process to integrate these plans and distribute the centrally
maintained components.
Developed
an automated process to maintain the individual resource calendars for 250+
people in MsProject by extracting vacation days from the Lotus Notes
Vacation Planner tool.
Created
an Excel timesheet to collect weekly actuals and allow bottom-up
re-estimating thru remaining work and start/finish date adjustments.This data was then automatically posted to the MsProject plans.Developed an automated process to generate these timesheets and email
them each week.
Extracted
and reported Earned Value information as well as calculating EV performance
ratios (SPI, CPI, TCPI, etc.) not provided by MsProject.
Created
an automated process to generate S-curve charts as PDF files showing
cumulative baseline, projected and actual work/starts/finishes for each
MsProject plan.
Created
an automated MsProject plan auditing process that analyzed each plan for
over thirty items. i.e. Task guidelines compliance, Task relationship
quality, Resource assignment anomalies, etc.This created a custom email for each plan owner with the specific
plan issues identified.
Created
a consolidated Resource Information report showing baseline, actual and
projected hours by week by MsProject plan.This was used to analyze resource-leveling issues.
