    PERT and CPM are two project management techniques used to plan, implement, monitor, and control projects. PERT is used for projects where activity times are uncertain, uses an event-based network, and focuses on time estimation. CPM is used for projects where activity times are known, uses an activity-based network, and focuses on minimizing costs and meeting deadlines. Key differences are that PERT uses probability, while CPM is deterministic, and PERT does not allow for crashing but CPM does. Both techniques are useful for scheduling and managing different types of projects.

    A quick introduction
     . PERTis an abbreviation of the Program Evaluation and Review
    Technique.
     CPM is an abbreviation of the Critical Path Method.
     Project Management has scientific ways of planning, implementing,
    monitoring & controlling.  It considers various parameters of a
    project. These include money, material, manpower, time, and other
    resources. It includes Scope, Time & Cost. 
     We have network planning methods for this. These are PERT and
    CPM. PERT project management and CPM are two famous
    managerial techniques
     1. Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT ) :
    PERT is appropriate technique which is used for the projects where the time
    required or needed to complete different activities are not known. PERT is
    majorly applied for scheduling, organization and integration of different tasks
    within a project. It provides the blueprint of project and is efficient technique
    for project evaluation .
    2. Critical Path Method (CPM) :
    CPM is a technique which is used for the projects where the
    time needed for completion of project is already known. It is
    majorly used for determining the approximate time within which
    a project can be completed. Critical path is the largest path in
    project management which always provide minimum time taken
    for completion of project
