Chapter Nine: Reducing Project Duration 9.1：Overview综述 Reasons: In recent years emphasis on time-to-market has taken on new importance because of intense global competition and rapid technological advances. The market imposes a project duration date. 近年来，由于激烈的市场竞争和快速的技术进步，对投放市场时间的强调具有了新的重要性，市场强加了项目一个完成日期。(291-2-1) Incentive contracts in partnering arrangements can make reduction of project time rewarding—usually for both the project contractor and owner. (291-3-1) Another reason for reducing project time occurs when unforeseen delays. (291-4-1) 项目进度的表达形式1——带有日历的项目网络图 项目进度的表达形式2——时间坐标网络图 项目进度的表达形式3——条形图或甘特图 项目进度的表达形式4——里程碑事件 项目进度的表达形式5——里程碑图 项目进度的表达形式6—项目计划表 项目进度的表达形式7——项目行动计划表 There are few circumstances in which a project manager or owner would not wish to reduce the time to complete a project. (289-3-1)很少有项目经理或业主不愿意缩短项目完成时间。 The manager faces a cost-time trade-off problem. (289-3-3)管理者面对着一种成本—时间权衡问题。 Cost-time situations focus on reducing the critical path that determines the project completion date. (289-3-5)成本—时间关系的焦点在于缩短决定项目完成日期的关键路径。 the challenge for the project manager is to use a quick, logical method to compare the benefits of reducing project time with cost. (291-7-2)项目经理所面临的挑战是使用快速合理的方法将缩短项目时间的收益和成本进行比较。 When sound, logical methods are absent, it is difficult to isolate those activities that will have the greatest impact on reducing project time at least cost. (291-7-3)在找不到合理有效的方法时，在最小成本下很难分辨出对缩短项目时间影响最大的那些活动。 This chapter describes a procedure for identifying the costs of reducing project time so that comparisons can be made with the benefits of getting the project completed sooner. (291-8)本章描述了一种识别缩短项目时间的成本的过程，这样就可以与项目更快完成获得的收益进行比较。 The method requires gathering direct and indirect costs for specific project durations. Critical activities are searched to find the lowest direct-cost activities that shorten the project duration. Total cost for specific project durations are computed and then compared with the benefits of reducing project tim
