| Abstract: | Since the late 1950s, network-based techniques are commonly used for project management. The critical path method (CPM) and program evaluation and review technique (PERT) are standard tools for scheduling. Related techniques such as PERT-COST are used for budgeting and control. A new tool for project management is suggested in the paper. This tool is designed for projects in which the project's work content can be divided into several sub-projects or segments so that the same set of activities is performed on each segment. The proposed tool is the basis of a project scheduling model and a project control model designed to support project management in cases where CPM and PERT are not suitable. |
