Introduction
PRODUCTION PLANNING
➢ Microplanning
➢ Is concerned with the ‘how’ of task execution
➢ Encompassing methods, personnel roles, material
movement, and assembly
PROJECT PLANNING
➢ Macroplanning
The difference 03
in Macro and
Micro Planning HAVE YOU EVER SHOT A BOW?
MACROPLANNING
➢ very high-level description of a
project, short and concise just
hitting the important highlights
MICROPLANNING
➢ involves lots and lots of details and
very intense schedule to get work
done.

2 TOPICS OF PROJECT PLANNING
1. THE PLANNING TEAM
• DETAILED PLANNING-key to a successful project
• PLANNING-Hardest part of the construction process
• SOFTWARE AID
1. Computers
2. Video projector
3. Outlining Software
• KEY FACTORS FOR SUCCESSFUL PLANNING
1. Solid understanding of the project,
2. Contract,
3. And required skills

REENGINEERING THE PROJECT
Reengineering entails examining a project to
discover improved or alternative methods for
operations.
brainstorming
conceptual blockbusting techniques, involves a free
format meeting of the project team where any idea is
acceptable.

the work is going to be accomplished
involves site layout, arrangement of
utilities, and preparation of storage and
prefabrication areas.

preventive maintenance is nesessary. Also,
Coordinated layout for fueling and maintenance
yards alongside other yard areas is important.
PRODUCTION METHODS
Efficient assembly processes are crucial for unique
construction projects. Subassemblies can be
prefabricated, and assembly-line techniques applied.
Simplifying drawings and instructions ans processes
should be broken down and simplified.
Planning construction methods identifies opportunities
for assembly-line techniques, involving jigs, layout
devices, and power fastening systems. Prefabrication on-
site and off-site simplifies work, speeds up processes, and
improves quality control. Encouraging subcontractors to
provide prefabricated assemblies can be cost-effective
and boost efficiency.

ACTIVITY PLANNING
To ensure timely project completion, designate a
foreman for activity planning. A week before the
scheduled activity, verify complete drawings and
any expected changes. Ensure approved shop
drawings and their sequence. Confirm special
tools and equipment availability and share plans
with parallel activities. Arrange alternatives for
equipment failure. Check on-site materials'
availability, storage, and quality. Inspect the work
area, ensuring proper access, layout, utilities, and
safety measures. Coordinate concurrent work and
address waste disposal needs.

Checklist
Amid the chaos of construction projects, crucial
details can be overlooked, causing rework. Checklists,
developed over time, help track various phases like
permitting, excavation, concrete work, and more.
These lists evolve from experience, reducing repeat
mistakes. Even seasoned supervisors’ benefit from
checklists, ensuring comprehensive oversight. Airline
pilots, despite repetition, rely on checklists for safety.
Figure 6.2 showcases a concrete checklist, offering
guidance for both experienced and novice foremen,
enhancing quality control and efficiency.

Look Ahead Schedules
Two types of look-ahead schedules exist: project
schedules in 4-6 week cycles and production
schedules created by foremen. Production look-
aheads detail specific work methods for the next 7-
10 days. For instance, a carpenter foreman
assigned abutment forming checks labor hours,
given budget constraints and schedule. Using bar
charts or diagrams, tasks are planned, assigned,
and organized to ensure work is completed within
budget and schedule.

Schedules
PLANNING THE PAPERWORK
Construction projects generate substantial paperwork,
necessitating effective organization. A numbering system
like the Construction Specifications Institute's aids in
managing correspondence, change orders, and more.
Software can track time-sensitive documents. Planning at
project start saves time later. For as-built drawings and
warranties, documenting deviations early is significant.
Weekly project meetings can adopt a numbering system
for discussion items, distinguishing between old and new
issues and tracking their resolution over time.
