COMPARISON OF PROJECT PLANNING & SCHEDULING SOFTWARE’S PRIMAVERA AND MICROSOFT PROJECT USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

Planning and scheduling is extremely important role in construction projects thank to the increasing difficulties during this field. Construction Planning is that the necessary warning to Scheduling and determining general sequence, defining labour tasks, construction methods and assigning responsibilities, inappropriate planning can cause major delays with the project work.. For planning and scheduling work requires huge amount of paperwork, which makes the management very burdensome. In this research two software's used which describes about the project as per the software working. Purpose of MSp & P6 is to analysis the project to know the completion dates. During this analysis of software's procedure for project starting dates of the projects and baselines are fixed, based on work flow predecessors are fixed and final dates area approached. As the option of calendar's are more in P6 it gives precise calculation These problems may be solved employing a project management software which helps to grant a planned approach to planning. Nowadays use of project management (PM) software as a tool for managing and organizing work has gained its importance in construction industry and continues to grow at a faster pace in other industries also. During this study, attempt is made to check project management software such as MS project and due to the more precise calculation Primavera p6 gives good results as compare to Msp. One of the WSB is considered in both the software's small analysis is done and final dates of activity and their feasibility is studied.Motivation/Background: Importance of this analysis is to understand about the p6 software and schedules, methodologies to be adapted properly to get the precise project dates.Method: As the option of different calendar's in p6 it will analyse the project precisely and gives the project dates.Results:P6 will study or analysis entire project dates with comparison of Msp in excel and in Msp project dates are optimized with some % of reduction in WBS and parallel activities dates has been optimized. This study gives the results as P6 will be precise in any of the projects and planning activities.Conclusion:Both the software's Msp and Primavera P6 has it uniqueness, and this study says for a good results in the project P6 will give a good results in the project scheduling.
