The schedule is an essential component of the triple constraint. While there are a variety of scheduling methodologies, the majority of transportation projects and programs are best run using the Critical Path Method (CPM). The CPM is built upon three core foundational elements: tasks, task durations, and task interdependencies. Most scheduling software applications are able to graphically display the schedule in a Gantt chart. A Schedule Management Plan describes how the project schedule will be managed during the project. The plan provides guidance on the organizational policies and procedures for planning, developing, managing, executing, monitoring, and controlling the project schedule. Some transportation organizations involve their project management early in the project planning process. Managing the CPM schedule and following proper change management procedures are critical to successfully developing and delivering the project within challenging constraints.
