Abstract

The paper employed Critical Path Method and Project Evaluation Review Technique (CPM/PERT) on the Establishment of Family Welfare Planning Center project to plan, organize, and schedule the tasks required in order to meet the project deadline. CPM and PERT are tools that project managers use to schedule, plan, and arrange tasks for any project. The tactics help managers identify the resources required at various times and what additional resources are required, as well as evaluating the impact of certain activity delays. They also help define occupations and activities and their start and end periods. It also aids in estimating when the job should be finished. The purpose of the paper is employ and apply PERT in the Establishment of family planning welfare center. The results show that building a family welfare center would take 412 weeks, which is five weeks longer than expected. This project is the first of its type to build a family welfare center using CPM/PERT methodologies.
