It gives you a precise time of each step of the project. 3. It gives you good view of which steps are the main or additional. 4. It provides exact prospective of which step depends on the other. Advantages of Gantt Charts. 5. It creates a picture of complexity. We think in pictures. Therefore‚ if we can see complex

PERT/CPM Project management triangle is the symbol that represents the money‚ time and scope items in a project‚ which has been modeled by Harold Kerzner. Given the wide range of project management tools available‚ the key to selecting the right one is to understand that different tools are needed along the different stages of a project life cycle. Graphical displays such as gantt-charts usually make the information easy to identify; and we can easily use it for tracking cost‚ schedule and performance

INTRODUCTION This paper describes the use of a simple hands-on case in undergraduate classes to teach the concepts of a traditional PERT/CPM and Critical Chain project management techniques. A simple six-activity project is used to illustrate: the identification of project activities‚ development of activity time estimates‚ the development of the project network‚ the development of the PERT/CPM critical path and the probability of on-time completion using the critical path‚ the development of the critical chain

Top management has selected three of its restaurants (one in each state) as test sites and has implemented a traditional TQM method like Pareto charts‚ check sheets‚ fishbone diagrams‚ and process flowcharts at each of them. The Charlotte Dave’s Burgers franchise implemented a number of production process changes to improve service time at the drive-through window and provided all employees with
