Toralf Riesel | Graduated engineer

has been working in project management since 1988. He studied mechanical engineering with a specialization in project planning at Wildau Technical University of Applied Sciences. Following his studies, he planned projects for the gas pipeline route Jamburg/Jamal using planning software. Later, he planned infrastructure and construction projects. Since then, he has also been assessing construction operations for construction disruptions and giving seminars on scheduling subjects. He taught project controlling/IT at the department of architecture at Berlin Technical University of Applied Sciences, supervised the scheduling/MS Project seminar for Real Estate Management at TU Berlin, and gave several seminars on scheduling and resource control for the Berlin Chamber of Architects. In 2006, he founded the project management office IFTP with a main focus on scheduling, and schedule controlling.

We often encounter large amounts of data, especially when it comes to major projects. This is why it is crucial to use professional planning tools. We primarily use MS Project and Primavera. For line structures, we use Tilos. In this way, we make sure that we can always point out critical developments and offer different points of view on the projects. A regular control of the schedule allows us to detect deviations in the process at an early stage and to make predictions for contract deadlines. These predictions provide the stability for the project team to take adequate controlling and risk prevention measures.

Microsoft Project
Microsoft Project is our main tool for schedule and resource planning. We use both the standard and professional version.
Oracle Primavera
Primavera P6 is our basic tool for schedule and resource planning in major international projects.
Tilos
Tilos is the tool we use to plan and visualize infrastructure projects (time chainage diagram).
ACOS Plus.1
Sometimes it is necessary to plan and to control projects to strict standards. With ACOS Plus.1 projects can be planned according to DIN 69900. Among other things, network calculations with maximum AOB, planning with AOB type "approach" and milestone trend analysis diagram, directly from the program, are possible. We have ACOS Plus.1 qualified scheduler and also offer ACOS Plus.1 training.
