Microsoft Project is used to plan projects, create schedules, assign resources, track tasks, and monitor project progress.

Yes. Microsoft Project can create construction schedules with task dependencies, milestones, critical paths, crews, and project deadlines.

The critical path is the sequence of tasks that directly determines the project finish date. Delays to critical tasks can delay the entire project.

Enter tasks, estimate durations, link task dependencies, add milestones, assign resources, and set a project start or finish date.

Resources are the people, equipment, materials, and costs needed to complete project tasks. They can be assigned to activities and tracked over time.

Earned Value Management, or EVM, compares planned work, completed work, and actual costs to measure project schedule and cost performance.

Yes. With resource costs and baselines configured, Microsoft Project can report planned costs, actual costs, earned value, and schedule variances.
