Abstract
ProTrack (acronym for Project Tracking) is a project scheduling and tracking software tool developed by OR-AS to offer a straightforward yet effective alternative to the numerous project scheduling and tracking software tools. The software has been built based on the results of the research studies discussed in Vanhoucke (2010a) and the many discussions with practitioners using software tools for dynamic scheduling. The project scheduling, risk analysis and project control approach is based on the current best practices from literature.
