Abstract: Projects are becoming more complex and costly requiring a greater level of attention to the management of both time and resources. Critical path method and other scheduling concepts, tools, and techniques are applicable to most industries that rely on planning and scheduling professionals to effectively manage work. Ensuring all components are considered thoroughly during the planning and scheduling of the project can be a factor between overall project failure or success.

Current market climate requires a more intricate level of detail. However, the segmented nature of managing the work creates communication and knowledge gaps that result in things being missed during the planning process. Making sure all components are considered from the beginning of the project can ensure a more successful execution, as well as monitoring & controlling the work throughout the project lifecycle.
