PREFACE
It gives an immense pleasure to present on the topic of “Design of business plan of whole
enterprise with help of CPM, PERT, Capital Budget”.. I have selected this topic because
I was very keen to know about how an enterprise designs a business plan. A distinct
feature of this project is that it provides a penetrating and comprehensive analysis of this
concept, theories and techniques in a simple and lucid style.. A project is involving a lot
of extensive study and research give me a great deal of exposure. I hope this project
would prove useful to its reader if it deserves.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I express my deep sense of gratitude to our internal guide Ms.Safia Khan (Lecturer of
management Dept.). For her valuable support and guidance given to me throughout the
project. I consider myself lucky to have worked under her.

With regards
KULTAR SINGH

 Introduction

For anything other than the very simplest of projects, project management charts are an
essential tool helping you to both visualize to yourself and communicate to others, a vast
range of data and information about your project. However, modern project management
charts are computer based and use sophisticated software requiring you to be fully trained
in their use in order to get the most out of them and to ensure you don’t inadvertently
misuse or misinterpret them. There are many different project management charts and
software programs you can choose from and the following are some of the more
established and frequently used ones like CPM, PERT &Capital budget which help in
design of business plan of whole enterprise. The Critical Path Method (CPM) used in
project management arose out of the PERT model. Developed by the Du Pont
Corporation in the 1950s it lists a work breakdown structure for the project, with the time
each activity should take and then links inter-dependencies between the tasks; allowing
the project manager to have an overview of likely conflicts for resources within the
project. Within a CPM the concept of something being critical means that it is a long,
complex and important one, compared to tasks that can ‘float’ or are less important. A
skilled reader of a CPM can see the likely longest time that the project could take, the
critical path, and can then start to plan to reduce that time accordingly. A CPM can, and
frequently does, have more than one critical path through it, with the project manager
having to prioritize tasks and add extra resources to cope with them as necessary to
prevent time over-runs.

The PERT chart also inspired the Critical Path Method chart. PERT
stands for Project Evaluation and Review Technique and a PERT chart allows a project
manager to both analyze and represent the tasks necessary to complete the project within
the allocated time. It is the time component of a PERT chart that makes them so useful as
they will help project managers in identifying the minimum time needed to complete
tasks, which will help them in preparing for the next stage/task in the project and
allocating resources to it in a ‘just-in-time‘ manner, so as not to waste any resources. As
such PERT charts are particularly effective in projects that are severely constrained by
time, or at least are more constrained by time rather than money. On a PERT chart the
tasks, or project events, are numbered in 10s, so as to allow the later addition of
supplementary tasks between the original ones, the tasks are linked by arrows on the
chart but until a task is completed, successive tasks linked to it cannot be started.
