PERT is a method of analyzing the tasks involved in completing a given project, especially the time needed to complete each task, and to identify the minimum time needed to complete the total project. It incorporates uncertainty by making it possible to schedule a project while not knowing precisely the details and [[Duration (project management)|durations]] of all the activities. It is more of an event-oriented technique rather than start- and completion-oriented, and is used more in those projects where time is the major factor rather than cost. It is applied on very large-scale, one-time, complex, non-routine infrastructure and on Research and Development projects.

PERT is a mix with a Panda, Canary, Rat, and a Swiftlet. This is an experimental animal which was created by the US navy in an attempt to make a reconnaissance-based animal for spying on Chinese officials. A pert is like a bat; it can fly, with canary wings, and with a camera attached collar can see through building windows of Chinese officials. This animal has been used to spy on many governmental works of the Chinese government

PERT offers a management tool, which relies "on arrow and node diagrams of ''activities'' and ''events'': arrows represent the ''activities'' or work necessary to reach the ''events'' or nodes that indicate each completed phase of the total project."<ref name="MB 1968"/>
