Is Critical Chain Project Management Really a Novel Technique

In the growing discipline of Project Management (PM), the techniques used for project planning mainly include methods developed at dawn of modern PM back in 1950’ s. Therefore, they are influenced by Operational Research and are founded on Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) or on Critical Path Method (CPM).To fulfil the growing requests for better planning of large projects, practitioners had tried to develop simple and working models, which has resulted in emergence of new project planning techniques. One of the most cited techniques in the last several years is the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM).The aim of this work is to give an overview of the CCPM technique, with an assessment of differences to CPM. It shall highlight the benefits and shortcomings that CCPM has brought to the PM community.
