The system uses networks of activities interrelating time and dollars to monitor large construction projects. CPM is also used as a planning tool by Facilities Management to plan, phase and develop construction contract durations prior to placing the project out for bid. CPM technique was implemented in VA in 1971 as a means of controlling and monitoring progress on construction projects. The system gave the Department a means of evaluating delays and impacts caused by VA issued changes and delays attributed to contractors, thereby reducing the number of delay claims submitted by contractors.
