Gaining Time

Using real-world examples from companies in industries as diverse as high technology, engineering and construction, financial services, health care delivery, retail and government, the authors provide a framework for conducting and managing time-based management (TBM) programmes. They define the main business cycles to be addressed; outline critical project, process and management issues; provide appropriate tools for each phase; and give guidelines on how to manage the relationship between TBM programmes and other current projects within the organization.
