An Engineer’s Introduction to PERT Scheduling and Control
Keyword(s):
Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is a method of planning work, comparing status with schedule, and evaluating progress at all levels of management in order to better control a major, complex, engineering project. PERT/COST adds control of manpower and funds. Three time estimates—optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic—are combined to obtain an expected time for completing each activity. The PERT network shows interdependencies of activities. An important result of the PERT calculations is the determination of the critical and slack paths of the network.
