In a talk held at an industry presentation, Darrell Uchima and John Weisinger of Boeing’s Satellite Development Center reveal the unusual demands of a unique business environment. And how Realization helped their business unit deploy critical chain to stay competitive. Excerpts below.
"The principal advantage of this approach is that the developers themselves have a close relation with the clients. This results in high motivation, flexibility and low overhead. It is a proven technique and has been in use on software projects for at least 10 years." i.e. since 1973! This is 20 years before Scrum, 13 years before the 'New New Product Development Game' HBR article and is 52 years ago.

“Implementing Critical Chain to accelerate new products development in the aeronautical industry”. Presentation during the annual Critical Chain International conference in April 2023 by Frédéric Grehal, Vice-President and General Manager of Circor Aerospace & Defense. [...]
The project durations were reduced, and the projects finished on time. The efficiency and throughput of the New Product Development also increased. Following the success of the pilot projects, they then rolled out the Critical Chain Way on their entire portfolio.
All these actions resulted in better managerial alignment, improved communication and better problem escalation within the project teams. It also provided Circor Aerospace & Defense with better, more challenging and more realistic, project schedules, and gave them much better visibility on the project’s progress.
A world class medical device manufacturer suddenly has far too many projects, a serious backlog, a slow review process, and few good options to help fix things. Realization’s toolkit of best practices and the company’s Concerto software helped tame the workload, prepare each project, and resolve problems as they arose.
The "2 for 1" rule to reduce Work In Progress and accelerate flow. A webinar hosted by Philip Marris, the founder and CEO of Marris Consulting. [...] The "2 for 1" rule is very simple: a new unit (such as a production order, an order, or a project) can only be launched into the system if two units have been previously released (finished).
Stop starting and start finishing!
The emphasis is on completing activities already underway before starting new work. [...]

Client testimonial by Circor Managing Director Frédéric Grehal, Raphael Ensinger and Michael Benmoussa.
Circor Aerospace & Defense’s on-time finish performance of new product development projects was not at the expected level. [...] They decided to implement Critical Chain Project Management. They began with 3 pilot projects. [...] They also changed and enhanced their management routines to facilitate the coordination & synchronisation between key actors. They introduced “Mascots” [...] The project durations were reduced, and the projects finished on time.

Critical Chain Project Management applied to portfolios of project is easy. The trick is that each individual project is properly planned and executed and has a high probability of finishing on time or early. So managing a collection of healthy projects is easy.
In this video, Philip Marris, CEO of Marris Consulting, presents two case studies. The first concerns the industrial relocation of production lines. The second concerns NuNet, a decentralized open-source cloud computing platform. To better manage uncertainty and ensure accurate tracking of their releases and market release dates, they complemented their Agile approach with the Critical Chain method.

Many project-driven organisations adopt Agile hoping for faster delivery and empowered teams — but often find those benefits elusive in complex environments like R&D, IT, and engineering. The issue isn’t with Agile itself, but with the unchanged system around it: shared resources, overloaded portfolios, and coordination bottlenecks that Agile alone can’t fix. This short webinar cuts through the noise. You’ll learn how to apply proven delivery principles from Agile, Lean, and the Theory of Constraints [Critical Chain Project Management] to improve flow, reduce friction, and deliver more consistently — across projects, teams, and functions.
Adding Critical Chain to an Agile environment provides VISIBILITY. This is the key message by Kabir Veitas the founder and CEO of deep tech startup Nunet. NuNet is an open-source platform using decentralized GPUs to offer an alternative to traditional cloud services. NuNet’s solution powers AI, Machine Learning, and other applications without relying on centralized providers, helping drive innovation in a scalable and sustainable way.
Jira is used by almost 60% of software engineers and over 300K companies. Scrum and Kanban are the primary approaches in Jira today, but not all types of work are equally well managed with these Agile methodologies. Critical Chain Project Management can improve visibility, reduce time to value, and substantially increase the chance of delivering a project on time. In this webinar, we will examine how to start getting the benefits of CCPM alongside Scrum/Kanban with the help of AgileCCPM for Jira.

Nowadays, it seems like you can call pretty much any chunk of work your team takes on a "project."
I used to feel like I knew a project when I saw one. Constructing a building, creating a new kind of widget, developing software: projects. My to-do list, the to-do lists of functions involved in developing new semiconductors or drugs: not projects.
The problem is, I’ve recently been looking at different project management software apps, and that’s forced me to re-think my beliefs. Monday.com, Smartsheet, and Microsoft Planner all call themselves project management software. But they seem designed first of all to help manage task lists, and second to help team managers manage team task lists. Traditional project management, with dependencies, scheduling, and critical paths (let alone critical chains!), gets much less emphasis. Dates are an input, not an output. ...
