Anyone in government contracting putting together a project schedule, will certainly want to download this gem. But more than that, the DCMA 14-Point Assessment contributes to scheduling best practices generally and offers all schedulers a way to up their scheduling game.
This book goes into the perfect amount of detail and approaches each point in a very pragmatic way. And, rather than just offer a short description of each point without any practical guides, Steve takes examples and demonstrates them in Primavera P6.
As well as the practical, real world examples of each of the 14-points, he relates to what is considered best practice and why. More importantly, the book covers what you should avoid doing altogether. It also looks at where and when to be cautious or judicious in the use of a particular feature. Many folks have told us that, this alone, is why it’s useful and worth your time reading.
All in all, this is a well written book by Steve. It covers everything you need to know about the DCMA 14-Point Assessment and all done in the context of scheduling best practices guidelines.
