During the planning phase of a project, a project manager needs to determine the critical path for the project schedule. Which of the following tools would BEST help in accomplishing this task?
A project network diagram visually represents the sequence of activities and their interdependencies within a project. It is essential for identifying the critical path, which is the longest sequence of tasks that determines the minimum project duration. While a Gantt chart provides a timeline of tasks, it does not inherently display task dependencies necessary for critical path analysis. A milestone chart highlights significant events without detailing task sequences, and a budget burndown chart tracks spending over time, not scheduling dependencies.
