How To Create a PERT Chart

Project PERT Chart
Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is a method of project tasks evaluation and analysis. PERT - is a method of analyzing the tasks required to complete the project. It includes analysis of the time required to complete each task, as well as the determination of the time required to carry out the whole project. PERT was developed to facilitate the planning of huge and complex projects. PERT is used for very large, complex, and non-standard projects. Technology implies the presence of uncertainty, making it possible to develop a schedule of the project without a precise information on details and time required for all of its components. The most popular part of PERT is a method of the critical path, based on the construction of the network schedule (PERT network diagram). ConceptDraw Office delivers you the best way to create PERT chart for your project using compatibility between ConceptDraw PROJECT and ConceptDraw PRO.
The PERT chart shows the logical connections and consequence of a set of tasks. PERT charts the time period for problem solving and the implementation plan for all activities along the critical path. The PERT chart is also known as a precedence diagram or project network diagram.
