The PMBOK is a widely accepted standard in project management, however there are alternatives to the PMBOK standard, and PMBOK does have its critics. One thrust of critique has come from the [[critical chain]] developers and followers (e.g. [[Eliyahu M. Goldratt]] and [[Lawrence P. Leach]]),<ref>[[Eliyahu M. Goldratt]] . {{ISBN|0884271536}} and Lawrence P. Leach. (Artech House Professional Development Library). {{ISBN|1580530745}}</ref> as opposed to [[critical path method]] adherents. The PMBOK Guide section on Project Time Management does indicate Critical Chain as an alternative method to Critical Path.
 
A second strand of criticism originates in [[Lean Construction]]. This approach emphasises the lack of two way communication in the PMBOK model and offers an alternative which emphasises a [[language/action perspective]] and [[continual improvement]] in the planning process.<ref>Koskela, L. & Howell, G.
