Abstract: The main goal of project control is to measure the actual project progress such that the deviations from the plan can be identified and corrective actions can be taken to bring the project back on track. However, in resource-constrained projects, disrupted activities affect their successors due to precedence relations and the other activities due to resource constraints, both of which will result in deviations during project progress. Since the project control approaches solely focus on the deviations based on the network analysis, they do not accurately reflect the progress of resource-constrained projects.
