  1. For projects that are resource constrained I think Critical Chain has huge benefits but many managers struggle with simplistic statements like let’s halve all the schedule durations. I personally believe duration estimates should give the team a 50/50 chance of completing the work in the time estimated and then use Schedule Margin (aka Contingency for Risk/Uncertainty) to protect key deliverables. A buffer by another name approved by the PMI. That’s an advantage of a Schedule Risk Analysis – it can give a defensible size for the Schedule Margin buffer rather than simplistic percentages of project duration.
