A mathematical scheduling technique that identifies the sequence of tasks that controls the project completion date.
The Critical Path Method (CPM) is a project scheduling algorithm that models project activities, durations, and logical dependencies to calculate the critical path, identify float, and determine the earliest and latest start and finish dates for all activities. CPM scheduling is required for most public construction contracts and is used as the foundation for delay analysis, schedule updates, and time impact assessments.
