The ‘As Late As Possible’ Project Constraint in Primavera P6 Primavera P6 has many unique project constraints that you can utilize to an activity. Out of these, you can view them as either hard or delicate project constraints. As we’ve examined some of them recently. There’s one Primavera P6 constraint nevertheless that can be truly helpful in certain circumstances. Yet it doesn’t appear to fit into either of the groups. How about, if we investigate the ‘As Late As Possible’ constraint? Setting project constraints like an ‘As Late As Possible’ (ALAP) on the action can utilize to keep project away from the delay between the end of a task. And the start of its subsequent functions. •

If taken a chance that an action has project constraints as an ‘As Late As Possible’ constraint in Primavera P6, it will carry on in the behavior in the following way: The ‘As Late As Possible’ constraint in Primavera P6 will plan the activity to begin as late as possible. This condition implies if the action has a positive free float. i.e., (an inevitable delay between the action’s end and the start date of its successor, not a slack). Primavera P6 will compel the free float deferral to be 0. The ‘As Late As Possible’ project constraints of Primavera P6 won’t influence the beginning or end dates of succeeding tasks. There’s a chance that succeeding tasks go in reverse/forward in the arrangement with the ‘As Late As Possible’ project constraints. It will consequently plan itself to begin as late as possible.
‘As Late As Possible’ project constraints work contrastingly in MS Project. The venture will delay the beginning of successors when an ‘As Late As Possible’ constraint gets connected.
