The document discusses Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) as a new approach to managing projects that addresses some of the limitations of traditional project management such as localized risk management. CCPM proposes using a global approach to risk management through techniques such as aggregating risks across all tasks in a project rather than at the individual task level and prioritizing projects based on their buffer consumption status. The document outlines some of the key concepts of CCPM such as critical chain planning and buffer management.
