综上,LT公司亟需通过对公司内人力资源的供给和需求进行分析,并在项目
的活动中将资源约束考虑进去,以减少多个活动在执行阶段出现资源冲突;并且
提高项目各项活动工期估计的准确性和项目执行效率,最终保证项目内多个活动
的顺利开展和项目的按期完工
关键链项目管理方法,是约束理论在项目管理的具体应用。其在解决资源冲
突、协调资源、监控项固进度方面有很显著的作用。本文运用项i进度管理和关
键链法等相关理论和方法,针对LT公司新产品开发项目进度管理中出现上述问题
进行研究,提出了一套考虑资源约束的项目进度计划方法。酋先阐述了项目管理、
项目时间管理的相关基础理论,介绍了应用在产品研发之上的关键链的相关理论,
对比了传统关键路径法和关键链法的优缺点,体现关键链法的优势和适用性。其
次,以LT公司太阳能草坪灯的新产品开发项目管理作为背景,分析LT公司新产
品的新产品开发项目计划,应用关键链法,找出产品研发过程中的约束资源,并
对约束资源的使用顺序进行优化排序,进而找出其项目的关键链。然后,通过压
缩项目活动的工期,减少“学生综合症”对项目时间估计的影响;并根据项目活
动的排序和特点,设立不同的时间缓冲区,对项目进度进行监控和预警,以此来
确保项目的及时率。最后通过与传统项目管理方法的使用效果进行比较分析,验
证了应用关键链法在项目时间管理方面的有效性

ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT
With the rapid changes in market, company should expedite developing more and
more complicated products to meet the customers’ needs with limited resources and
budgets. That is a big challenge for company. LT company, as one of the LED lightings
companies which can provide R&D and manufacturing services, in order to meet
different customers’ demand,the top management of LT company makes a decision that
the project team can’t allow to increase any extra resources, especially for the human
resources when executing the projects, as well as to improve the efficiency in order to
ensure the new product to quickly launch into market so as to gain more and more
market share. However, currently the supply of a variety of resources especially the
human resources is hard to hit the demand in terms of conducting multi-activities in
parallel for R&D project. Often multi-activities can&39;t catch the schedule due to the
conflict between the resources and demand. As a result, that will make the project delay.
On the other hand, the engineers always add the additional time for buffer into the
schedule when they are asked for estimating the lead time for each activity so as to
secure the activities are finished on time to a great extent. However, it will make the
efficiency of the whole project decreased and the project schedule is too long and
redundant as well.
Above all, the LT company should analyze how to balance the demand and supply
for the human resources. And also need to take the resources constrains into account
when executing the project activities in order to decrease the conflict when varieties of
activities are doing at the same time in the executing phrase. Enhance the accuracy of
the estimate for lead time and increase the efficiency for the project executing. Thus to
secure varieties of activities in the project are able to be smooth going and finish on
time.
Critical Chain Project Management Method is the application on the constrain
method. Nowadays, Critical Chain Project Management Method has outstanding effects
on aspects in terms of resources conflicts handling/resources plan/project process
monitoring. The thesis applies Project Time Management theories and Critical Chain
Project Management Method to study the topic mentioned above regarding the R&D
project time management and puts forward a body of planning method considering the

ABSTRACT
constrains of resources. Firstly, the thesis expounds the relevant theories regarding the
project management and project time management and introduces the Critical Chain
Project Management Method applying on R&D projects, comparing to the traditional
method Critical Path Method for the advantages and disadvantages, to reflect Critical
Chain Project Management Method’s advantages and applicability. Secondly,the thesis
is based on the R&D project solar lawn light R&D project’s management as background,
analyzes LT company’s new product R&D project plan and applies Critical Chain
Project Management Method to find the resources constrains during the R&D process
and optimizes the sequence for constrain resources so as to find the project’s Critical
Chain. Thirdly, compress the lead time for activities to reduce the affects of &39;Student
Syndrome” when estimating the lead time. Also, according to the sequence and the
feature of the project activities, set the different time buffer, monitor the project
progress and warn when abnormal occurs to secure the project on-time rate. Finally,
compare and analyze the effects of the traditional project management method and the
Critical Chain Project Management Method to validate the effectiveness of applying
Critical Chain Project Management Method on project time management.
