Activity Management helps Track and Manage the Full Kits.
Before starting Critical Tasks [Assembly, Tooling or St Ups, Repairs, etc.], Full Kitting is essential if delays and rework are to be avoided.
There is usually a Person responsible for the“Full Kitting” Tasks.
Model Full Kitting Milestones and processes into the Project network is a valuable process to avoid these delay and rework issues.
The Full Kit can be assigned as a standard Activity List and made Mandatory.
See the Activity Management section. Activity Management: Adding Activities to Tasks and Managing Activities
The Kitting Tasks can be included in a more extensive project network for complex kitting; separate Full Kitting projects feeding into a main project might be advisable.
1. You can assign the Kitting Person as a Resource Type or
2. Assign them as a Task Manager to the Task in the Full Kit portion or
3. Use the Task Group feature in PERT view to “Tag” these tasks, also
4. You can use Template Blocks to create standard “Full Kit” Tasks inside a Project.
5. The “Milestone” feature can be applied to trigger the first Task in a Full Kit process.
These features enable users to filter and isolate these Tasks inside a larger project.
