How can you establish realistic deadlines for your team in optical engineering?

You can be as realistic as the records that you keep. If the records are flawed or inaccurate, the network will not be as you thought it would be. This then requires remedial testing and possible augment of existing facilities.

To establish realistic deadlines for your optical engineering team, understand project scope, assess team skills, consider technical complexity, factor in dependencies, use historical data, communicate with the team, account for contingencies, prioritize critical tasks, and review industry standards. Balance workload to prevent burnout and maintain productivity.

So important that. I agree with that. To define the goal of works and the capacity and the needed implementation works and infrastructure works

One must understand the practicality of project execution depending on what time frame need to be prepared involving the execution team and planning team together.

Mesmo com um bom projeto, é preciso reservar tempo para o planejamento de todas as atividades, conforme a etapa da constru??o. Tentar antecipar possíveis problemas e calcular a quantidade exata de materiais e recursos humanos necessários em cada tarefa.

A divis?o em etapas ou fases é uma ótima prática que ajuda muito em vários fatores como na gest?o de micro-entregas, alinhamento entre diferentes áreas e com alta dire??o. Além disso, cada entregavel se torna um marco que permite o monitoramento do projeto e ajuda no engajamento das equipes para manter entregas dentro do prazo e assim concluir 100% do projeto dentro dos prazos estabelecidos.

An effective way to correctly estimate deadlines is to divide the project into small work packages and define a separate deadline for each, based on the team's capacities.

It's an effective way to achieve the bigger target. It works as a magnifier, helps you look into hidden challenges ahead and prepare contingency.

1.) Plan for worst case 2.) Design all processes as future proof/best practice 3.). Accept the result and use as launching platform.

Only necessary short meetings driven by date oriented goals with follow up and follow through. Know your neighbors, is a team effort.

**Tips for Using Project Management:** 1. **Select Wisely:** Choose a tool/method (Gantt, Kanban, Scrum) based on project needs. 2. **Plan Structurally:** Organize, schedule, and update tasks systematically. 3. **Visualize Workflow:** Use visual features for task flow and dependencies. 4. **Effective Communication:** Facilitate team and stakeholder communication. 5. **Document and Report:** Utilize tools for recording and reporting project status. 6. **Optimize Processes:** Streamline operations and prevent deadline issues.

Create a workflow chart to help delegate, track and prioritize your work. Task individuals according to their strengths to maximize workflow and completion time frames.

Make sure your tools align with the customers or that you understand the customer's tools. If working with a new customer, make sure you align on the tool inputs. Why? It could affect the way you get paid. Expectations should be set prior to project kickoff.

Les outils doivent être utilisés pour éviter les erreurs et élargir la perspective. Certe la présence humaine est primordiale mais elle sera plus complète avec les outils

make your project process effective to meet up with time and have a good project. Like using scrum process make sure your sprints are well define and where and when adjustment is needed make appropriate adjustment to the sprint. Make good use of visualisation it helps with land mark and coordinate with out door fibre distribution

This goes back to what I said about milestones and payment terms. You have to understand how the project will get funded and what the spend will be for each phase. Larger projects are harder to plan, so ensure that you have risk money built into the project. You always run into snags and roadblocks. The more experience you have the more you know the unknown creates expense.

?a entre dans le calcul du risque d'achever une tache dans les délais estimés c'est à dire est ce que l'équipe est qualifiée, est ce que le matériel est nouveau pour ne pas ajouter des tampons pour des faits qui ne se produit pas

I will like to give example with pulling let say in a metro deployment. You were using a blowing machine and it developed a faulty and the project is metro handhole or manhole distance won't be long distance it is advisable to have an alternative of snake cable duct rodder push.

Associar buffers e contingências à entregas em fases/etapas permite ao gestor mitigar possíveis impactos negativos no cronograma de entrega. Os buffers precisam ser alocados estrategicamente e n?o podem comprometer a confiabilidade da alta gest?o, se este recurso for utilizado incorretamente pode ser visto como a conhecida "manga". As contingências est?o diretamente ligadas ao mapeamento dos riscos, por isso, ter vis?o clara dos objetivos do projeto e potências riscos envolvidos é crucial para defini??o das contingências.

A compara??o entre previsto e realizado é um trabalho contínuo. Como em finan?as onde você compara o or?amento versus o realizado periodicamente, em projetos vale a mesma prática. Por isso, estabelecer marcos e comparar datas previstas no cronograma original versus o status atual do projeto é fundamental para mapear a necessidade de ajustes, identificar oportunidades e riscos e alinhar a comunica??o com todos os stakeholders afim de trazer sempre a vis?o mais precisa e realista para a alta dire??o.

Revise and adjust your deadlines regularly to ensure project success. Regular evaluation of timelines allows for proactive identification of potential delays and provides an opportunity to implement corrective measures. This adaptive approach enhances project efficiency and helps maintain alignment with overall objectives. Timely adjustments, based on ongoing assessments, contribute to a more agile and resilient project management strategy, ensuring that deadlines remain realistic and achievable throughout the course of the project

Adjust your deadlines to allow your team time to collaborate and help bring you success improve accuracy. Staying in touch with and communicating with your team for continued success.

In addition you should plan delivery time of the project, look into how the delivery time affect the project financially when it is met and when it is not met in other to plan robust finance

Je pense qu'il ne faut pas oublier la formation des encadrants ainsi que les visites sur le terrain afin de mieux appréhender les difficultés rencontrées par les équipes.

Establishing realistic deadlines in optical engineering involves several steps: Understand the Scope: Clearly define the project's scope, goals, and deliverables. Break down the tasks involved in the project to gain a comprehensive understanding. Assess Resources: Evaluate the resources available, including personnel, equipment, and budget. Consider any potential constraints that might impact the project timeline. Consult Team Members: Engage your team in setting deadlines. Their insights on the tasks, complexities, and potential obstacles are invaluable for creating realistic timelines.

Personally I’ve found that any project can be broken down into 3 key areas *Time *Budget *Expectation I’ve used many different softwares and methods and although I’ve no issue with them I always go back to the above once I’ve referenced. If either of the first two points are hindered, halted or moved the latter needs to be discussed. By keeping things simple. Understanding that all projects bring challenges and setting the expectation early always keeps me and my teams in good grace.

Allocate recommended time frams for the implementation work is very important to maintain the quality of the network. Optical networks are very sensitive and expedite implementation plans may reduce the quality of the network.
