Project Scheduling

Over the past 20 years tens of thousands of people have completed Priority Management’s Project Planning Breakthroughs course. A course that teaches the most effective method for scheduling projects.

Using manual diagramming tools and a unique set of methods, our clients appreciated the process and the improved results they experienced.

However, the number one question always asked “is there no software that can replicate these tools and methods?” The answer was ‘no, we’re waiting for that to happen.’

But it never did. Many of our clients tried to build their own software, without success.This has changed with the recent release of Overgantt.

Overgantt is the result of 4 years of development. Its key breakthrough is the capability of discovering and verifying the vast array of task links and doing this more efficiently and accurately than anything else available.

We at Priority Management Australia are delighted to be the first training company in the world to deliver a training course on this remarkably efficient new software.
