German term or phrase: LT
Die Erfahrung hat gezeigt, dass Arbeitspakete nicht größer als 10 LT sein sollten, um im Projektverlauf ein sinnvolles Controlling vornehmen und Planabweichungen frühzeitig erkennen zu können.

This has stumped me, I know MT for "Manntage", possibly Leutetage if that even exists???
TIA Stephen

naja, you probably want a translation (although you can probably do that better than I can here). I'd stay with mandays, but I'm not really up to speed with PM jargon.
