Question: CPM is an important way for managers to plan and coordinate large scale projects. What is the difference between program and evaluation review technique (PERT)

CPM is an important way for managers to plan and coordinate large scale projects. What is the difference between program and evaluation review technique (PERT) and CPM? What are some key advantages of using CPM? What are some limitations? Find a companys project and CPM or PERT, and summarize the project from the organizations perspective.

Further explanation of what I am looking for in your responses [to help you to succeed]:

This is a fairly straight forward requirement. For your initial post, complete a compare and contrast analysis between CPM and PERT.

The requirement asks you to list the advantages and limitations of each technique. This is a pretty broad requirement. Just like the other processes / philosophies we have analyzed; the hypothetical possibilities (could, should, may, etc.) are meaningless unless you have a specific project to focus on.

To save yourself time (and trouble), consider the advantages and limitations for each technique after you have chosen a company project to analyze. The strengths and weaknesses for each process will become clearer when you look at a specific way to use them
