Assignment of critical path for a building site based on multicriteria approach

The project management involves control through performance measurement. In order to do that, it is necessary to study the project from the point of view of multiple aspects. In the construction sector, there is a lack of suitable methods to assess the activities that must be performed for the fulfillment of a project. This article seeks to evaluate the critical path of a building site using SMARTS, a multicriteria decision aid method. Results show that analysis of the PERT/CPM network only through their perspective of time does not give a comprehensive and global view of other important attributes to be controlled by a project manager. It is necessary a focus on multiple aspects.
