Synopsis
PrimaVera Sure Trak Project Manager Version 3.0 is an upgrade of version 2.0 released by PrimaVera Systems Inc in early 2000. This book was initially developed as a training course manual for SureTrak Version 2.0 but has been enhanced and updated for Version 3.0 so it may be used as: a reference manual for those who are looking for a simpler alternative to the "User Manual"; a self-teach book for people who are unable to attend a training course; or for instructors to use as a two day training course manual. The text is designed to teach planners and schedulers in any industry how to setup and use the software in a project environment. It explains in plain English and in a logical sequence the steps required to create and maintain a schedule. It takes the user through to some of the advanced features of the software including resource levelling and Project Groups. It highlights the sources of information and methods that should be employed to produce a realistic and useful project schedule. It draws on the author's practical experience in using SureTrak in a wide variety of industries. It presents workable solutions to real day to day planning and scheduling problems and contains practical advice on how to set up the software and import data. It includes exercises, a large number of screen dumps, numerous tips and an index.

From the Author
As a project controls consultant I have used a number of planning and scheduling software packages for the management of a range of project types and sizes. The first books I published were user guides/training manuals for Primavera SureTrak, P3 and Microsoft Project users. These were well received by professional project managers and schedulers, so I decided to turn my attention to Primavera Enterprise. This book follows the same proven layout of my previous books. I trust this book will assist you in understanding how to use Primavera Enterprise on your projects.
