This article explores the disadvantages of relying on the PERT Formula for duration and cost estimates. In part three of the PERT Formula series, I discussed the benefits of using the PERT Formula in project management. In this article, I will take a look at the other si...http://www.brighthub.com/office/project-management/articles/15189.aspxFri, 14 Aug 2009 08:07:35 GMTb133e95a-c263-4882-8f2a-b24547eff78e:15189RondaRobertsThis article discusses the uses of the PERT Formula in Project 2007. Calculating the PERT Formula Deanna discusses how, specifically, to estimate task duration in her two-part series, " Project 2007: Estimating Task Durations using the PERT Formula ." In this article, she describes options for calculating the task duration manually using ...http://www.brighthub.com/office/project-management/articles/15682.aspxFri, 14 Aug 2009 07:26:38 GMTb133e95a-c263-4882-8f2a-b24547eff78e:15682RondaRobertsThis article introduces the reader to the PERT Formula. For the math-phobic among us, any project management tool containing the word "Formula" in it can strike fear in even the most competent project manager. This series of articles aims to take this fear away and demystify the PERT Formula. Hopefully, it will even convince you of some o...http://www.brighthub.com/office/project-management/articles/15681.aspxFri, 14 Aug 2009 06:56:03 GMTb133e95a-c263-4882-8f2a-b24547eff78e:15681RondaRobertsWhen should you use the PERT Formula? We'll take a look at some of the instances when this project management tool can prove to be quite useful. The main reason a project manager will want to use the PERT Formula is to have an estimate for cost or duration that is accurate. When project managers - especially inexperienced ones - estimate du...http://www.brighthub.com/office/project-management/articles/15316.aspxFri, 14 Aug 2009 06:48:32 GMTb133e95a-c263-4882-8f2a-b24547eff78e:15316RondaRobertsThis article explores the benefits of using the PERT Formula. Using the PERT formula in project management can be a great benefit to project managers who are overwhelmed with the process of estimating duration or cost in a project. The following is a list of potential benefits of using PERT as an estimation tool. 1. The PERT Formula Can Give the Es...http://www.brighthub.com/office/project-management/articles/15349.aspxFri, 14 Aug 2009 06:40:08 GMTb133e95a-c263-4882-8f2a-b24547eff78e:15349RondaRobertsThis article describes project management software that is PERT Formula friendly. Many software programs for project managers include PERT formula functions or PERT charts. Using PERT Formulas help with estimating tasks. Because some project managers may be math-wary, or because they might not be sure about the data they are plugging into the formu...
