I am working on this prog that was made by someone else. I, don't assign cost or labor units to engineering activities such as submissions and approvals of materials, drawings etc because often these activities have a lot of float so they end up messing the percentage values (as I have noted that scheduled percentage values are calculated from early start date. Hence despite having a total positive float the project lagged behind in the percentage leading to tussle with the client). What I found in the prog I received is that cost and labor units both were assigned to activities in engineering and procurement because then only the schedule percentage and unit percentage values rolled up in the summary. Is there any other way you guys are monitoring your progress?
I am new to this field trying to learn.
Thanks
