Hello Haruto,
Project planning tools include the following:
[li]Benchmark studies of best practices & projects[/li]
[li]Historical databases cataloging experience[/li]
[li]Breakdown Structures (Work breakdown structure, Organization Breakdown structure, Cost breakdown structure, Responsibility Assignment matrix, Product Breakdown structure etc.)[/li]
[li]WBS dictionary[/li]
[li]Codes of accounts structured to aid in monitoring, updating progress & forecasting[/li]
[li]Policies & operating procedures[/li]
[li]Checklists to prevent gaps in coverage[/li]
[li]Commercial handbooks & software programs[/li]
Hope this helps.
Thanks
PCI
