ABSTRACT
Resource scheduling is a complex subject that can be viewed from a number of different standpoints. At the strategic level it can be seen as an important element in formulating the long-range plans of companies. In this book, the subject is treated from the point of view of the project manager, who is more likely to be concerned with the shorter-term operations of the business. However, the techniques described here for project resource management cannot be regarded in isolation from the longer-term strategy, since project and other working schedules contribute vital information to the higher-level strategic planning process.
