Complex, multilayered and distributed projects require a series of activities, some of which must be preferred sequentially and others parallely. This collection of series and parallel tasks can be modeled as a network. PERT is statistical technique applied to such a networks. In this paper we attempted to simulate the PERT networks and graphically represented the tasks along with them inter dependencies. Here project identifies the critical and non-critical tasks and evaluates the critical path to determine which tasks have an impact on the schedule. Once a project has advanced to the phase of performance, the focus shifts from the discovery to tracking and reviewing it. MILESTONES are used to track the progress of the project at different stages and the PERT chart, on continual basis. This paper integrated both these techniques for an efficient and easier monitoring. In order to reap the results of the project sooner, we gave a provision to reduce the scheduled completion time with minimum cost burden. This can be achieved by assigning more labor and resources to the various activities.  \nKeywords: PERT, MILESTONES, Project, Resources, Schedule.  \n1.INTRODUCTION:  \nProject monitoring is the ongoing collection and review of information on project implementation, coverage and utilization o f inputs. It also involves the analysis of data about project activities. The should be easy to collect and easy to understand . The focus of monitoring is to use the gained to correct and adjust project implementation and management in order to achieve project objectives. Monitoring allows project participants to keep track of project activities , to determine whether project objectives are being achieved , and to make whatever changes are necessary to improve project performance.  \nProject monitoring and evaluation serves several purposes:  \n􀁸 facilities the identification and resolution of problems  \n􀁸 enhance project performance and ensures congruence with the required criteria.  \n􀁸 provides the basis for technical and financial accountability  \n􀁸 builds local capacity to implement and manage projects successfully and  \n􀁸 promotes the identification and dissemination of lessons learned by participants themselves.  \nTo be successful monitoring and evaluation begins with clear project design. This project provides guidance about incorporating monitoring and evaluation elements in each stage of the project cycle. Monitoring allows project managersand participants to identify and assess potential problems and difficulties during and program implementation. Adjustments and corrections in project and program design and implementation can then be made and thus enhance chanc","cbCaifLIMvNawX4F","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifLIMvNawX4F","pdf",1210940,13,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n## Introduction\n## Role in the Project Cycle","[{\"question\":\"How does PERT support monitoring in this study?\",\"answer\":\"The paper models project activities as a network and applies PERT as a statistical technique to identify critical tasks and compute the critical path that affects the schedule.\"},{\"question\":\"What role do milestones play during project execution?\",\"answer\":\"Milestones are used to track project progress at different stages on a continual basis alongside the PERT chart.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper suggest reducing scheduled completion time?\",\"answer\":\"It proposes reallocating more labor and resources to activities, enabling earlier results with minimum additional cost.\"}]","SOFTWARE PROJECT MONITORING USING MILESTONES AND PERT - AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS | PDF",1791829593]
