Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM)

bullet2 Needs to be done   Drum Buffer

The drum buffer assures that the drum resource is not starved for work if the drum resource is available early. It goes in the project chain immediately upstream of the first use of the drum resource in the project. You can size it as a feeding buffer for the chain of tasks that precede it. Or, you can use a standard duration. When beginning CCPM, you can leave this buffer out with minimal damage.
