3. Project cost management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_cost_management

   Project Cost Management (PCM) is the dimension of project management which aims to ensure that a project is completed within its approved budget. [1] [2] It encompasses several specific project management activities including estimating, job controls, field data collection, scheduling, accounting and design, and uses technology to measure cost and productivity through the full life-cycle of ...

   Cost engineering is "the engineering practice devoted to the management of project cost, involving such activities as estimating, cost control, cost forecasting, investment appraisal and risk analysis". [1] "Cost Engineers budget, plan and monitor investment projects.

5. Estimation (project management) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Estimation_(project_management)

   In project management (e.g., for engineering), accurate estimates are the basis of sound project planning. Many processes have been developed to aid engineers in making accurate estimates, such as Analogy based estimation; Compartmentalization (i.e., breakdown of tasks) Cost estimate; Delphi method; Documenting estimation results; Educated ...

   Budgeted cost of work performed (BCWP) also called earned value (EV), is the budgeted cost of work that has actually been performed in carrying out a scheduled task during a specific time period. [1] The BCWP is the sum of the budgets for completed work packages and completed portions of open work packages, plus the applicable portion of the ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

   Since project schedules change on a regular basis, CPM allows continuous monitoring of the schedule, which allows the project manager to track the critical activities, and alerts the project manager to the possibility that non-critical activities may be delayed beyond their total float, thus creating a new critical path and delaying project ...

8. Schedule network analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schedule_network_analysis

   Schedule Network Analysis is a strategy that is commonly used in project management. The strategy consists of visualising the different project tasks and making connections between them in the project management plan. [1] [2] [3] For making a final schedule, a schedule network analysis is finished utilizing a draft schedule.

9. Advanced planning and scheduling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_planning_and...

   APS is especially well-suited to environments where simpler planning methods cannot adequately address complex trade-offs between competing priorities. Production scheduling is intrinsically very difficult due to the (approximately) factorial dependence of the size of the solution space on the number of items/products to be manufactured.
