Location-Based Scheduling (“LBS”), Linear Scheduling, or Line of Balance (“LOB”) scheduling utilizes your current CPM schedule for better resource control by measuring, analyzing, and presenting scopes of work or activities relating to time against the project plan. An LBS’s advantage is they present the entire schedule on a single page, displaying the process, status, production rates, background, timing, and phasing of the project activities, thus providing management with measuring tools for success. At Overall Consulting, we take your current CPM schedule, typically 20 pages or more, and create a single page LBS, typically within one day or better, to analyze the project’s plan and resource requirements.
