Good Practice: A detailed Project Freight Plan should be developed and agreed by Project Management.
It provides the following benefits:
Include all team members, not just senior project management. Develop a plan over several weeks, by accessing team members and drawing on their knowledge and experiences.
Common Mistakes
Trying to manage a large and intricate project without a project logistics plan is like trying to cross a strange continent without a map, you are running blind. The key element to get right is the balance between planning and action. Take the example of driving from Amsterdam to Zurich: too much planning and others will be halfway there before you have had a chance to depart; too little, and you will turn up at the Swiss border without passports.
A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week.
