Planning is the key activity in projects. It provides an overview of what needs to be done to achieve the objectives and monitors the execution of activities to ensure that key milestones are met. Dana develops transmission systems that are sometimes customized according to customer requirements, so planning always takes on a project-specific character. However, the work packages include activities that are common to all developments, and as a result a 'standard' planning can be obtained whose backbone are the common activities and whose ribs are variable activities depending on the project in question. The first objective of the thesisis to create a 'Standard Master Schedule' that groups all project activities, basic and variable, and sequences and schedules them in a risk-free scenario.
