Technique

A structured, repeatable method a person applies to carry out a task to create a deliverable, achieve a result, or provide a service, often making use of one or more tools.

Key Points

  • A technique is a step-by-step method executed by people, not the tool itself.
  • It can involve one or more tools to support the work.
  • It is systematic and repeatable, and can be documented and taught.
  • Teams select techniques based on the objective, process, and data needed.

Example

During schedule development, the team applies the Critical Path Method technique, using scheduling software as a tool, to identify the longest path and calculate total float, guiding decisions on schedule compression.
