Briarpoint Municipal's project manager is using PERT to estimate the time for a complex database migration. The estimates are: Optimistic (20 days), Most Likely (32 days), and Pessimistic (50 days).
What is the PERT duration, and what should the PM do next?
- Duration is 33 days; the PM should instruct the team to start the work immediately to meet this target.
- Duration is 32 days; the PM should use the Most Likely estimate as it is the most realistic.
- Duration is 33 days; the PM should add this to the schedule and check the impact on the critical path.
- Duration is 34 days; the PM should submit a change request to update the schedule baseline.
