01What is Primavera

What is Primavera? In plain words.

Primavera P6 is project planning and scheduling software from Oracle. Planners use it to break a project into a Work Breakdown Structure, create activities, link them with relationships, and calculate the critical path. They then assign roles, resources and costs, save baselines and update progress to see whether the project is ahead or behind. P6 comes as a desktop client and as P6 Web (EPPM) for enterprise-wide use.

Primavera is a common requirement on large construction, infrastructure, oil and gas, power and manufacturing projects, where many contracts ask for schedules in P6 format. Planning engineers, project controls staff and PMO teams use it daily to prepare look-ahead schedules, track earned value and report to clients. Knowing both the software and the project management concepts behind it makes you useful on site and in head offices.

Ranipet's SIPCOT industrial estate and BHEL unit, and the many building and road projects along the Chennai–Bengaluru corridor, all need planned schedules. Primavera skills help engineers from Vellore, Katpadi and Ranipet move into planning roles on such projects.
