When we were developing our Capstone project, we had to constantly monitor where we were in terms of our schedule. We had to make sure that everything we do was on schedule because the amount of time we had to complete the project was very small. Overall, there were a lot of times when the project fell behind schedule however, since we were completing different aspects of the project simultaneously, we didn’t fall behind as much. In terms of budget, we had a surplus of money for the project. However, there was a time when we were scared that we were going to go above the budget for design purposes. We needed new equipment and it ended up costing a lot but it never added up to go over the budget. Performing variance analysis for our project taught me how to balance based on a pre-set amount of resources and has also taught me to become better at becoming flexible when it comes to working on problems that arise within the middle of the project.
