Do you know the fastest and cheapest route through your project? Can you save money in
the long run by increasing your resource expenditures in the near-term?
TMI can help you answer these and similar questions with Critical Path Method (CPM) and
Program Evaluation Review Technique (PERT) scheduling. Using the project work breakdown
structure, our experienced analysts will help you get the most out of your time and money
through the development of network diagrams. Network development and CPM analysis reveal
interdependencies between tasks, detect problem areas that might otherwise have gone
unnoticed, as well as determine areas in which the greatest effort should be focused.

Once task dependencies have been defined, TMI prepares bar chart style
schedulesor Gantt chartsto graphically depict the project schedule, including
its critical path. Also at this point, TMI will reanalyze the resource allocation for
over- and under- allocations and, if necessary, level the resources. Areas for potential
schedule acceleration are identified and alternative schedule scenarios are evaluated.

Exhibit 3: Sample Gantt Chart depicting critical path tasks in red
As indicated throughout this document, TMI strives to make project management easier
through the medium of graphics. TMI produces clear, understandable outputs that
effectively communicate the project schedule and especially the critical path. TMI excels
in the production of project Network Diagrams, Gantt Charts, and other graphical exhibits.
Please ask a TMI representative for further examples of our work; the size of these charts
prevents us from including them herein. |
