Abstract
Common to all projects is the need to allocate available resources in the best possible manner. If done correctly by the project manager, she can avoid delays, penalty fees and using unnecessarily many resources on wrong events. In addition, by analyzing the possibility of crashing the project, the project manager might be able to find a more optimal solution than would be possible by the simple PERT/CPM analysis. Thus this analysis is building upon a PERT/CPM analysis.
