Reference Materials and Training Manuals

T&M Concepts sells several training and reference manuals written by Paul E. Harris and published by Eastwood Harris Pty, Ltd. Mr. Harris is a professional project planner who holds an Honors Degree in Civil Engineering, is a Certified Cost Engineer through the AACE and a Certified PRINCE2 Practitioner and Trainer. He has worked in the project controls industry for a number of years and has assisted many companies in a range of industries to set up and run project controls systems.

Mr. Harris' easy-to-understand presentation of the material allows all of the publications to be used as:

  • A reference manual for people looking for a simpler alternative to the "User Manual"
  • A self teach book for those who are unable to attend a training course
  • As course training material and for handouts by training facilitators and instructors

Primavera Project Planner (P3) Training & Reference Manual for Version 3.1 is designed to teach planners and schedulers in any industry how to setup and use P3 in a project environment. It explains, in plain English and in a logical sequence, the steps required to create and maintain a resourced and un-resourced schedule as well as gives practical advice on how to set up the software and import data. It has a chapter dedicated to the new functions available in Version 3.1 and covers some of the more advanced features of the software such as Resource Leveling and Project Groups. This 300+ page book also includes exercises, a large number of screen dumps, helpful tips and a comprehensive index.

Primavera Engineering & Construction (P3e/c) 4.1 Training & Reference Manual has been written to enable new users to learn the planning and scheduling functions of Primavera Enterprise in a single project environment. For users with prior experience in SureTrak, P3 or Microsoft Project, the book explains the differences in the product's functionality.

Primavera Contractor Training & Reference Manual presents workable solutions to real day-to-day planning and scheduling problems using Primavera Contractor. The book stays focused by: concentrating on the core functions required to plan and schedule projects; keeping all information on each function in one chapter; providing command lists at the start of each chapter as a quick reference; and by NOT exploring every available "Add-On" option, because these features may be learned from the help facilities once the contents of the book are absorbed.

SureTrak Training & Reference Manual is another independently written book by Paul E Harris on Primavera SureTrak for Windows Version 3.0. It has over 210 pages that include exercises and a large number of screen dumps, tips and a comprehensive index.

 

Microsoft Project Reference & Training Manual aimed at professional Project Managers, Engineers and Planners who require a text which is short, concise, and easy to follow. It is an excellent value! The author takes the user through the logical sequence of creating a schedule and statusing (updating or progressing) and contains practical advice on how to use the software as well as how to collect the data required to create and update schedules. The manuals are available for MS Project 2002 and 2003.
