The influence of project structural factors on the time management of electronic engineering projects in the south western Cape
(1993) Fakira, B S J Hamida; Lister, Gordon
Time management is certainly the most invaluable tool in projecting time-phased resource utilisation requirements as well as providing a basis for tracking performance. It allows optimal integration of all the resources in a project such that synergy is produced. Consequently, an effective time management system is crucial to the success of a project. This research highlights the major requirements for setting up an effective time management system for electronic engineering companies in the South Western Cape. It includes a literature review which shows the influence of the project structural factors on time management and the project performance. The research also uses an industrial survey to uncover the current impact of the project structural factors on electronic engineering projects. The effectiveness of alternative time control system is examined as well. From the findings of this research study, it has been possible to set up guidelines for selecting time control techniques which are pertinent to the current project structural factors of electronic engineering projects.
