| Title | Schedule management for large scale projects: the example of HL-LHC at CERN |

| Abstract | The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) project seeks to significantly enhance the performance of the LHC to deliver ten times more data to the LHC Experiments. The project relies on cutting-edge systems and technologies deployed in the new facilities constructed to the HL-LHC requisites and replacing large existing equipment and systems in the LHC tunnel. The project complexity lies in the production and installation of innovative systems with strong interdependencies. A methodological schedule management approach is essential to ensure timely equipment delivery, anticipate potential risks and implement mitigation actions. This paper describes the schedule management aspects of the HL-LHC project, providing a robust framework adaptable to any large-scale project. It encompasses the management of the baseline changes, the monitoring of milestones, the planning and coordination of the new facilities installation, and the integration of the HL-LHC installations within the regular LHC maintenance program. Emphasizing the significance of key performance indicators (KPIs), the paper highlights the critical role of metrics as indicators of schedule robustness. |
