1.

WBS (Work Breakdown Structure)*: The WBS is a hierarchical breakdown of project tasks into
smaller, more manageable sub-tasks. It helps to decompose work into simpler elements that are
easier to plan, manage, and control.

2. *Scope of Work*: The scope of work defines the boundaries and objectives of a project. It specifies
what is included (and excluded) in the project, as well as the expected deliverables.

3. *EPS (Enterprise Project Structure)*: The EPS is a hierarchical structure that organizes an
organization's projects based on their relationships and level of detail. It allows visualizing how
different projects are connected and aligned with the organization's goals.

4. *OBS (Organizational Breakdown Structure)*: The OBS is a hierarchical representation of the

organization that identifies the responsibilities of each organizational unit in a project. It shows how
human resources are assigned and distributed to execute the work.

5. *Baseline*: The baseline is a frozen version of the project's initial plan, used as a reference to
measure and evaluate actual performance against the planned schedule.

6. *CPM (Critical Path Method)*: CPM is a project planning method that identifies the critical
sequence of tasks necessary to complete a project on time. It helps determine the shortest possible
duration to complete a project.

7. *PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique)*: PERT is a project analysis method that uses
probabilistic estimates to assess task duration. It is often used for projects where task durations are
uncertain.

8. *Forward Pass*: The forward pass is a technique used in CPM to calculate the earliest start and
finish dates for each task in a project.

9. *Backward Pass*: The backward pass is a technique used in CPM to calculate the latest start and
finish dates for each task in a project.

10. *Total Float*: Total float represents the amount of time available for a task without delaying the
overall project. It is the difference between the latest start and earliest start dates, or between the
latest finish and earliest finish dates.

11. *Free Float*: Free float represents the amount of time available for a task without delaying the
start of a successor task. It is the difference between the earliest start of the succeeding task and the
earliest start of the task in question.

12. *Critical Path*: The critical path is the sequence of tasks that determines the shortest possible
duration to complete a project. Any change in the duration of these tasks will result in a change in
the total project duration.

13. *Scheduling KPIs (Key Performance Indicators)*: Scheduling KPIs are measures used to evaluate
the effectiveness and quality of a project schedule. They typically include measures such as
adherence to deadlines, resource management, and schedule flexibility.

14. *Schedule Quality*: Schedule quality refers to the accuracy, reliability, and relevance of a project
schedule. A high-quality schedule is comprehensive, well-structured, and aligned with the project's
objectives and constraints.
