I'm having a somewhat heated debated with some of our QS.
They argue gantt charts - task names and arrangement - should be determined by BoQ and then up to me to plot task durations.
I argue that BoQ are not narrative and don't often given detail to specific areas of a build, often just elements, sometimes in a high degree of detail but often just quantities of materials for substructure, superstructure etc. - in short it is not as simple as addinng tasks, durations and dependencies between line items on a bill
What are people's experiences of doing this and is there a happy medium?
I am using Powerproject - is there a way of switching between a narrative layout that would be used by site manager, client etc and the BofQ format craved by my QS by use of filter?
