Teradyne’s 45-year-history. It had set out to create an entirely new semiconductor test-system platform. The resulting Ultra Flex system, designed to be flexible enough to allow customers to test a full range of semiconductor devices, was critical to the success of Teradyne’s new competitive strategy. The Jaguar project had marked a culmination of sorts in Teradyne’s eight-year effort to improve its product development process. The Jaguar team had used a number of project management

represents a set of tasks. What is a PERT/CPM Chart? The Program Evaluation Review Technique (PERT) is a bottom-up technique, because it analyzes a large, complex project as a series of individual tasks. At approximately the same time, the CPM (Critical Path Method) meet similar project management needs. The distinction between the two methods has disappeared over time, and today the technique is called either PERT, CPM, or PERT/CPM. Maintaining a Schedule A project schedule can be challenging, and

three paths for completion: Path 1: A – C – E – G Path 2: A – C – E – F Path 3: B – D – F We now calculate the time taken to complete each path to determine the critical path. Time taken for completion of Path 1 (A – C – E – G): 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 10 days Time taken for completion of Path 2 (A – C – E – F): 3 + 4 + 1 + 4 = 12 days Time taken for completion of Path 3 (B – D – F): 1 + 2 + 4 = 7 days From this we can see that Path 2 takes the longest time and hence is the Critical Path. We will
