How do PROPLAN and PROBID work together?
If you are using PROBID – PROCON’s Estimating & Tendering System – to produce your project estimates and tenders, you can export activities, operations, resources, sets and costs directly from the estimate to create a basic network plan. PROPLAN can then refine this network and produce Bar Charts, Resource Loading histograms, Cash Flow histograms, etc., that support the tender submission and help in the estimate analysis of resource requirements and overheads. General project information like the job name, password, department, job number, start date, duration and finish date is copied from the estimate to create an equivalent PROPLAN network. The project start and finish dates become the network data date and specified end dates respectively. Some of the PROBID items, operations, resources, sets and costs are also copied to the network. A PROPLAN activity is created for each operation assigned an Activity Code. The activity description, calendar, duration, start and finish date, costc
