How To Read CPM Metrics

ES (Early Start)

Earliest day a task can start based on predecessors.

EF (Early Finish)

Earliest day a task can finish: ES + duration.

LS (Late Start)

Latest day a task can start without delaying project finish.

LF (Late Finish)

Latest day a task can finish without delaying project finish.

Float / Slack

Delay buffer: LS - ES. Zero means critical task.

Critical Path

Longest dependency chain with zero float; drives project duration.

Network Duration

Total project duration from CPM forward/backward pass.

Validation Errors

Dependency cycles or invalid references that block reliable CPM analysis.
