dc.description.abstract GOOD PLAN OF THE JOB IS HALF THE JOB. As of this statemenl the present scenario of working scheduling and project tracking is augmented with large projects such as new ship building projects. Building a new vessel can be considered as a high-tech job which is actually a project with a deadline and a dedicated team. Project manager is the leading person and the holder ofthe main responsibility to deliver the project under the stipulated time and budget with the required quality. Project manager equipped with the authority to acquire any resource to complete the project by coordinating with the other departments and acts as the operational in charge of every engineer under the other departments in a matrix organizational structure. 'Phis is aimed to evaluate optimum time for planning, scheduling and resource allocation for future new ships construction projects at Colombo Dock Yard (CDL). All the previous data have taken by consecutive past three sister vessels for calculations and Critical Path Method (CPM) and Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) used to find critical path and critical activities. More information about which activities are “critical”, meaning that they have to be done on time or else the whole project will lake longer. This report indicated that what those are. Also this report illustrated that the way to schedule human resource without disturbing that critical activities and smoothen the resources accordingly. In addition, though the collection of information the study can emphasize the idea about the CPM and PERT applied in the shipping industry. The shipbuilding project planner should consider the uncertainty during scheduling and the above results have implications for manager’s decision makings. en_US
