Pert Problem

The Programme Evaluation Review Technique (PERT) accounts for uncertainty in project durations using three time estimates: optimistic, pessimistic, and most likely. It involves calculating the expected duration and variance for each activity, as well as determining the critical path and overall project length. The document also includes examples and calculations to illustrate the application of PERT in project management.

15.6 Programme Evaluation Review Technique : (PERT) This technique, unlike CPM, takes irto account the uncertainty project durations into account. j PERT calculations depend upon the following three time estimates, Optimistic (least) time estimate : ((, or a) is the duration of activity when everything goes on very well during the project. ie labourers are available and come in time, machines are working propert money is available whenever needed, there is no scarcity of raw mater needed etc. Pessimistic (greatest) time estimate : @ or 5) is the duration of an activity when almost every thing goes against our will and a lot o difficulties is faced while doing a project. Most likely time estimate: (t,, or m) is the duration of any activity when sometimes things go on very well, sometimes things go on very bad while doing the project.
