Gents,
Backround:
I recently started on the Dushanzi project in China.
The situation is that the client is using a Chinese designed planning software and it can download into Microsoft project. The price of Primavera is too scary so not even in the equation. Backround of the project is basically devided into Power Centre, Refinery, Chemical plant, Utilities and modification to existing plant which represents +/_ 45 Plants we are managing the BED and DED and Procurement and Construction up to a level 3, probably about 10000 activities.
The questions are:
1)Can Microsoft Handle the size of activities comfortably
2)Has anybody on PP had similar experience and worked with MS Project that has some advise.
3)Does anybody know if MS project China (Beijing) has a good support base to assist the smooth running of this large undertaking, and/or is it even required
4) How does it behave working through a network? as we may be working with 8 planners.
All help and sugestions will be more than welcomed
Regards
Joel
