Before we proceed further let us look through the definition and the importance of project scheduling or project planning.
Definition of project scheduling:
Project Scheduling is A
Process of listing the detail breakdown of works to on how to achieve the
project goal by determined the when to start and finished, what is the work
sequence and who is responsible for the task.
The important of Project Scheduling:
Project scheduling is a
tool that will guide a construction project from the beginning until completion
and a tool to maximize the profit for a project.
In any type
of planning or scheduling the crucial part of it is input that need to be as
accurate as it can be. To have all the required input, the scheduler will not
only need his own experience and knowledge but also input from other parties
within his organization. Those parties are as the chart below.

| CHART 1 |
Refer back to the chart 1 above, there is few parties
involve. Each of this party will provide the scheduler with different type of information.
By gathering all of this essential data and incorporate it into the work
program or project schedule, a project will have a proper, practical and
realistic target date for completion. The Table 2 below show us what are the
information that we can get from each of the different parties involve.

| TABLE 2 |
Base on Chart 1 and Table 2, a proper and realistic schedule
is everybody Job. If either one of the element is missing or not captured in
the project schedule it can be a misleading schedule which must be avoid. As an
answer to our question “Who’s responsible is the project scheduling?” we
summarized it as it is the responsible of the Project Scheduler. He or She is
the key personnel that will get the project Schedule done with the input from
various parties involve.
