The goal of all 3 planning methods is to show a path from the beginning to the end of the project, but the difference lies in how the path is visualized and planned. The first two methods are part of the Critical Path Method (CPM) and the last method is Location-Based Scheduling (LBS). The following article gives an insight into how the 3 planning methods benefits Task Management and focus on similarities and differences between the methods depending on the project.
