無 / Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) has merged in last few years as a novel approach for managing projects. While there were many previous researches studied CCPM concerning with single project management, but CCPM multi project management was hardly paid attention, especially capacity-constraint buffer sizing approach. However, there were some research papers which examined and illustrated CCPM under multi-project environment; those papers assumed all the subprojects were identical. Despite the fact that such situation is impractical. The purpose of this dissertation is to compare Cut and paste method (C&PM) with Root square error method (RSEM) for applying in project buffer, feeding buffer and capacity-constraint buffer sizing and to change some subproject parameters which make an impact on the project schedule for multi-project scheduling. Keywords: Critical chain project management, Multi Project Scheduling, Buffer Management, Capacity constraint buffer, Buffer sizing method.

O processo de produção, no ambiente da Construção Civil, é abordado segundo certos princípios gerenciais que absorvem conceitos vindo da Engenharia de Produção. Para obter a qualidade na produção, pelo critério competitivo que envolve prazos e confiabilidade de entrega, é fundamental a integração entre o projeto do produto e a produção através do projeto da produção. O processo de planejamento, no contexto do projeto da produção, requer o uso de ferramentas de suporte à tomada de decisão, fazendo da programação uma etapa essencial para o ganho de consistência deste processo decisório. A pesquisa trata da programação de projetos com limitação de recursos, a fim de encontrar uma boa solução para o problema de programação de forma simples e satisfatória. O método utiliza como ferramenta de apoio o software Microsoft Project para manipular os projetos com mais agilidade e flexibilidade, considerando as regras de prioridades que são usadas a depender dos critérios gerenciais adotados pelas empresas. O método é baseado na classe de procedimentos heurísticos: Job Oriented Heuristic Scheduling, já que o grau de prioridade dos projetos orienta o desenvolvimento da programação conjunta, denominada Programação multi-projetos. / The production process in the Civil Construction environment is approached according to some management principles that reinforce concepts from Production Engineering. To obtain Quality in production through the competitive criterion, which comprehends fast delivery time and on-time delivery, it is fundamental the integration between Product Design and production through Production Design. The planning process requires the use of procedures to support the decision-making process concerning global production systems in construction companies. Thus scheduling would be an essential stage for the acquisition of decision consistence. This dissertation deals with the resource-constrained Project Scheduling Problem using a heuristic method based on priority rules. Heuristic procedures are used to obtain a good solution to the problem in a practical and satisfactory way. The method uses Microsoft Project as a supporting tool to deal with the projects with more agility and flexibility. The priority rules are based on management criteria adopted by the companies. The method is based on the category of heuristic procedures known as Job Oriented Heuristic Scheduling, since the project priority degrees orient the steps of the multi-project scheduling.

Le contexte d’application de cette recherche a été le projet CRIBA. CRIBA vise à industrialiser une solution intégrée de rénovation et d’isolation de grands bâtiments. De ce fait, une part importante de la valeur ajoutée est transférée des chantiers de rénovation vers des usines de fabrications devant être synchronisées avec les chantiers. La planification est l'une des étapes importantes de la gestion de projets. S’adaptant à une organisation, elle vise une réalisation optimale en considérant les facteurs de temps, coût, qualité ainsi que l’affectation efficace des ressources. Cette affectation est d’autant plus complexe lorsqu’un ensemble de projets se partagent les ressources, renouvelables ou non renouvelables. L'objectif global de notre étude est de développer un outil d’aide à la décision pour un décideur visant à planifier plusieurs projets en intégrant l'allocation des ressources renouvelables, et la planification des flux de ressources non-renouvelables vers ces projets. Dans ce cadre, les ressources non renouvelables telles que les machines et la main-d'œuvre ont une disponibilité initiale limitée sur les chantiers. Cependant, nous supposons que des quantités limitées supplémentaires peuvent être achetées. En outre, nous prenons en compte la volonté des coordinateurs des projets pour l’approvisionnement des chantiers en juste à temps (just in time), en particulier pour les ressources peu demandées, encombrantes et à forte valeur. Ceci oblige à étendre le cadre du modèle de la planification des projets en incluant la planification de la chaîne logistique qui approvisionne les ressources non renouvelables des chantiers. Enfin, pour répondre au besoin d’outils décisionnels responsables sur le plan environnemental, le modèle prévoit le transport et le recyclage des déchets des chantiers dans les centres appropriés. Un modèle linéaire mixte du problème est ainsi posé. Puisqu’il rentre dans la classe des modèles d'optimisation NP-durs, une double résolution est proposée. D’abord à l’aide d’un solveur puis une méta-heuristique basée sur un algorithme génétique. De plus, pour faciliter l'utilisation du modèle par des utilisateurs peu familiers avec la recherche opérationnelle, un système d'aide à la décision basé sur une application web a été développé. L’ensemble de ces contributions ont été évaluées sur des jeux de test issus du projet CRIBA. / The application context of the current study is on a CRIBA project. The CRIBA aims to industrialize an integrated solution for the insulation and thermal renovation of building complexes in France. As a result, a significant part of the added value is transferred from the renovation sites to the manufacturing centers, making both synchronized. Planning is one of the important steps in project management. Depending on the different viewpoints of organizations, successful planning for projects can be achieved by performing to optimality within the time, cost, quality factors as well as the efficient assignment of resources. Planning for the allocation of resources becomes more complex when a set of projects is sharing renewable and non-renewable resources. The global objective of the study is to develop a decision-making tool for decision-makers to plan multiple projects by integrating the allocation of the renewable resources and planning the flow of non-renewable resources to the project worksites. In this context, non-renewable resources such as equipment and labor have a limited initial availability at the construction sites. Nevertheless, we assume that additional limited amounts can be added to the projects. In addition, we take into account the interest of the project coordinators in supplying the non-renewable resources in a just-in-time manner to the projects, especially for low-demand resources with a high price. This requires extending the framework of the project planning by including the planning of the supply chain which is responsible. Finally, in order to meet the requirements for environmentally responsible decision-making, the model envisages the transportation and recycling of waste from project sites to appropriate centers. A mixed integer linear model of the problem is proposed. Since it falls within the class of NP-hard optimization models, a double resolution is targeted: first, using a solver and then a metaheuristic based on the genetic algorithm. In addition, in order to facilitate the use of the model by users unfamiliar with operational research, a web-based decision-making support system has been developed. All the contributions are evaluated in a set of case studies from the CRIBA project.
