Description
The schedule is never done. Plans change and schedules needs to adapt. Project scope, deadlines, and resource availability are all constraints that impact a schedule. These constraints often change throughout a project's lifecycle, and production teams need to be capable of making swift adjustments to keep their projects moving forward. On large-scale productions with thousands of tasks, making these changes can be a massive undertaking. Generative Scheduling is a tool that facilitates large-scale schedule iteration, pulling production schedules from Autodesk Flow Production Tracking. In this session, we'll look at how to use Generative Scheduling, use constraints to iterate on and optimize a schedule, create hypothetical scheduling scenarios, and use resource shaping to refine schedules. Simplify your production scheduling workflow by enabling production teams to quickly iterate and plan against ever-changing project requirements with this easy-to-use tool.
Key Learnings
- Learn how to use constraints to iterate on and optimize a production schedule.
- Learn how to create scheduling scenarios to plan for constraint changes, such as changes to resource availability and deadlines.
- Learn how to use resource shaping to refine a schedule for specific resource classes to better optimize resource usage.
