Run an Automatic Activity Goal-Based Acceleration

Use automatic goal-based acceleration to define the acceleration target and let Acumen 360 automatically generate the schedule scenario that meets that goal.

To define an acceleration goal for a specific activity, complete the following steps:

  1. Select the S4 // Acceleration tab.
  2. In the Acceleration menu, click Accelerate Schedule.
  3. On the Accelerate Schedule dialog box, in the Schedule Accelerator group:
    1. Select the Accelerate Activity tab.
    2. Click Select / Change Activity to Accelerate to select the activity against which the acceleration needs to be conducted (for example, accelerate completion of construction).
    3. Use the goal options (date field or sliding scale) to set the target goal for the activity acceleration.
  4. Click OK to run the simulation.
  5. Compare the results using forensics, timeline, and analysis views.
