About this Presentation
There have been many critical chain project management (CCPM) implementations within The Boeing Company and several have received company-wide acceptance and encouragement for the results achieved thus far. Despite great initial results, sustained throughput improvements have been modest and there is still a substantial amount of bad behaviors occurring. It is apparent that The Boeing Company needs a method to maintain and improve their CCPM maturity. The following document establishes a capability maturity model (Capability Maturity Model®, Carnegie Mellon) representation of a CCPM project execution management process. Additionally, this presentation provides an analysis to support a capability maturity assessment of a Customer Support Engineering organization. The analysis represents 24 months of project data produced by teams within the organization which are dedicated to using the outlined project execution management process.
