Critics Cant Find the Logic in Many of Todays CPM
Schedules
(5/26/2003 Issue)
Users want software with flexibility, but is it true
CPM?

One of the reasons for starting the college is
disconcerting. What is described as a CPM schedule
these days sometimes isnt one at all, the four
experts claim. If that claim is true, it says a lot
about how personal computers have transformed
scheduling and what could be in store as technology
reshapes other phases of the construction process.
At the meeting, the four experts lamented the state of
scheduling. They say they see widespread abuses of
powerful software to produce badly flawed or
deliberately deceptive schedules that look good but
lack mathematical coherence or common sense about the
way the industry works. The result is confusion,
delayed projects and lawsuits.
