The comprehensive schedule will identify time frames for key project milestones; independently identify project resource requirements and track actual progress versus planned progress. 2) Process Improvement - Identify and track recurring problem areas from the comprehensive schedule and develop and implement recommendations to solve the issues leading to the problem areas.
