&lt;p&gt;I am expecting to use your software APP to handle a real project of software development that I have (about 4500 Men.Days).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to learn how to use it, I started with very simple cases and I found out that the optimisation algorithm was not giving the best solution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have attached an example of project very simple (only 2 tasks and 2 guys).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The project consists in specifying then developing a piece of software using 1 guy for the specifications (8 hours) and another one for the software development (8 hours).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I found out the following problems when using the APP software:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- The load of each task is increased by 20% even when I specify that no training is necessary. That results in 10 hours instead of 8. (I have run other examples with bigger figures and I have also observed an extra rate of 20%).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- The software does not start the development immediately after the specifications as it should. Instead of that, it starts the week after. I don’t understand why.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think that I encounter these problems because I don’t use the SW correctly and I hope you will be able to help me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
