Project Intro Intermediate course

Large complex projects

Is it best to break down large complx projects in to smaller projects and then view in master project as overview?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Large complex projects

Hi Benjamin

thank you for your question. Whilst it's not necessary to break things down into smaller project files you may find it easier to track and mange. Working with sub project files means that teams will be able focus on the parts of the plan most relevant to them rather than having to navigate all of the project activities. It also enables teams to work concurrently (because they are working on separate files).

In the end the solution you choose should best suit how you work as an organisation.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Ms project tip:

Avoid Accidental Constraints

The initial default table is the Entry table. Enter a task name and duration, but do not enter start or finish dates. Form the plan using links, predecessors. Typing dates introduces constraints. To remove these constraints, double click on a task, and on the Advanced page of Task Information set the constraint back to As Soon As Possible (all other options are there too.)
