| − | In the following article, the concept of the Event Chain Methodology(ECM) will be described in relation to the project management. It will be presented the basic principles, the methodology and the benefits of this method. The ECM is an uncertainty modeling and practical schedule network analysis technique that is focused on identifying and managing events and event chains that affect project schedules. Generally, ECM helps to:

| |
| − | •Simplify the process of defining risks and uncertainties in project schedules.
| |

| |
| − | •Perform more accurate quantitative analysis while taking into an account such factors as the relationship between different events and actual moment of the events.
