Enter your Optimistic (O), Most Likely (M), and Pessimistic (P) estimates for each task. Use Excel's formula feature to apply the PERT formula: =(O + 4*M + P)/6 to automatically calculate the expected duration.

By applying a weighted average formula to these inputs, the PERT methodology produces an Expected Duration ( TEcap T cap E

You can literally watch your project map shift as you refine your estimates.

Determine the dependencies. Ask yourself: Which tasks cannot start until a previous task is completed? Input these relationships into the template's predecessor column. Step 3: Input Time Estimates
