Application of Primavera P6 for Monitoring and Updating Construction Project Performance

Abstract

Proper planning and scheduling are critical components of construction projects for preventing and controlling project delays. Every year, the construction industry loses a significant amount of time, money, and resources as a result of poor construction activity management. As a result of globalisation, construction projects have grown in size and complexity. Such projects necessitate a significant amount of paperwork and effort, both of which can be reduced by using project management software. The primary goal of this study is to use the Primavera P6 software to plan, schedule, and optimise resources for construction projects, as well as to analyse the results. In addition, compare it to the traditional scheduling method to make recommendations for construction stakeholders who are directly and indirectly involved with the project. Here in this research investigation, a case study-based approach was used to describe how P6 software applications can help to control the overruns. The findings of this investigation show that the features of tracking and revised scheduled time to time save a significant amount of money and time for project completion.
