Critical Path / Critical Chain

Welcome to our project management tool that takes the complexity out of managing critical path or critical chain. With our advanced algorithms and user-friendly interface, you can quickly and easily identify the critical path of your project and ensure that it is always on track for success.

Start your project

What We Offer

Automatic Critical Path Calculations

Energer automatically calculates the critical path for your project with a click of a button, allowing you to easily identify the tasks that are most critical to the success of your project.

Critical Chain Methodology

Our tool goes one step further by taking into account resource constraints and automatically calculating the critical chain of your project. This helps you to identify potential resource bottlenecks and adjust your project plan accordingly.

User-Friendly Interface

Our tool offers a clean and intuitive interface that allows you to easily view your critical path and critical chain, as well as make adjustments as needed.

Real-Time Updates

Our tool provides real-time updates as you make changes to your project plan, so you can quickly see the impact on your critical path and critical chain.

How does it work?

1

Create your schedule

Ensure that for all the tasks, at a minimum you have set the most likely durations (for critical chain, add resources to tasks where you want to balance the schedule for the resources.).

2

Sync the project.

Energer calculates the most optimum schedule for your project and generates the projected start and finish dates for each task. If tasks have resources and you have resources allocated to your project, it automatically balances resource needs for the best schedule (Note that critical chain is only available on our Elite membership plans).

3

Buffers and more

Calculating project buffers has never been so easy, each time you sync your project, Energer automatically calculates all project details including % complete and buffer utilization.

4

Filter and focus

You can easily filter for critical path and dig into task details and dependencies; this lets you stay a step ahead to ensure there are no blockers.

What are critical path/chain algorithms?

Critical path and critical chain algorithms are sophisticated algorithms that take into account all of the variables and dependencies that affect project timelines and resource utilization. The result is a highly accurate assessment of the projected completion dates for any task in the project, allowing you to make informed decisions and manage resources more effectively. In addition, we provide real-time updates to the critical path and critical chain calculations, so you always have the most up-to-date information about your project's milestone dates. You can also view historical data and trends with Fever charts (which use these algorithms) to identify patterns and areas for improvement.
And because our algorithms run seamlessly in the background, they are designed to be user-friendly, you don't need to press more than a button to use them effectively.

  • View the critical path and critical chain of your project at any time
  • Identify potential delays and bottlenecks in your project schedule
  • Optimize your project timeline for maximum efficiency and success
  • Easilsy visualize the critical path on the network editor or the Gantt charts.

So whether you're managing a small project or a large complex one, our critical path and critical chain algorithms can help you stay on track and ensure your project is completed on time. With Energer, you can take your project management skills to the next level and achieve greater success in all of your endeavors.
