The process of applying Primavera for planning and managing any project consist of the following steps and levels: 1- Definition of the preferences and the defaults of the project2-definition of the work break down structure (WBS)3-Adding activities ,work packages and the milestones 3- developing the schedule net work diagram using the activities sequences ,activity duration and relationships 4- assigning resources to all the activities in the WBS. Primavera is a great ,powerful and amazing software in the sector of project planning and scheduling,and I would like to say that it is of great importance for any project manager to manage his project effectively and uniquely to achieve and handle deliverables successfully on time. Thank you Muhammad for your great question and also thanks to Hafiz for his good answer. here you can define both the cost direct and indirect costs of your project. 5- cost loading- in the last you put cost or more better to say expected or budgeted cost needed to complete all the activities you have define in your project. 4- resource loading - on the fourth level you load your activities with resources which are required to complete all those activities which you have mentioned earlier. 3- insertion of activities -here you insert activities in there work packages. here you make different work groups or packages, which you have to do for achieving your milestones. 2- break up of scope- this is nothing but making of WBS (work break down structure). 1- scope planing - here we define the major milestones or deliverable s of the project. But i personally feel that it has five levels. primavera is a powerful planning tool use in all over the world to plan projects mainly in terms of time, resources and cost.Īs far as levels of planning is concerned different planners, specialist and scholars give different levels of planning.

The major function of primavera is to support your planning process.
