Abstract. Scheduling in a project is a tool to determine the activities needed to complete a project
in a certain order and time frame, in which every activity must be carried out so that the project
is completed on time at an economical cost. The purpose of this study is to find out the critical
path in project implementation and find out which projects are postponed and which cannot be
delayed in their completion which can affect the entire project work process so that the project
can be completed on time. The method used in this study is the Critical Path Method (CPM),
which is a network method that has a series of activity components with the longest total amount
of time and shows the fastest time period of completion. The results of this study indicate that
the use of CPMs is able to get the longest total amount of time with the fastest project completion
period, project scheduling and project critical paths can be seen more clearly so that the project
can be completed on time.
