Open-source Critical Chain + Agile: NuNet's case study
In this session, we will introduce NuNet, an open-source platform using decentralized GPUs to offer an alternative to traditional cloud services. NuNet’s solution powers AI, Machine Learning, and other applications without relying on centralized providers, helping drive innovation in a scalable and sustainable way.
We will explain how NuNet combines Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) with Agile practices to improve planning and execution. By breaking down their work into clear workpackages and using Agile routines like regular reviews and updates, they’ve simplified the planning process and kept the team focused on the right priorities. Attendees will also learn how they use tools like fever charts and critical chain schedules to track progress and adapt quickly to changes.
With their open project management portal, anyone can follow their progress, learn from their them, and explore practical ways to apply these techniques to their own projects. This session is perfect for anyone interested in improving project execution while managing complex, fast-moving innovation.

Overcoming Corporate Inertia: Buy-In Lessons from a €1M/Month Project
This illuminating session explores proven strategies for implementing Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) in corporate environments resistant to change. Drawing from a real-world case study of a €1M/month cost-of-delay project, the presentation reveals how to navigate organizational inertia and secure executive buy-in for CCPM adoption.
Attendees will gain practical insights into overcoming common obstacles, including how to present CCPM to key decision-makers—from plant directors to regional managers. The session outlines a strategic framework for piloting CCPM, emphasizing the importance of demonstrating concrete results before broader implementation. Using the example of a factory relocation project completed in two weeks instead of the typical six months, participants will learn how to build credibility and generate organic interest in CCPM methodologies.
Key takeaways include:
Techniques for analyzing past project performance to build a compelling case for change.
Strategies for securing budget approval for essential software tools.
Methods for conducting effective pilot programs.
Approaches for scaling CCPM adoption across an organization.
This session is particularly valuable for project managers and executives seeking to drive methodological change while maintaining operational excellence and stakeholder confidence.
