2.5
Uncertainty Measure
6.25
Risk Measure

How to Use This Tool

1
Enter Three Estimates

Provide optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic time estimates.

2
Calculate Expected Time

PERT formula: (O + 4M + P) / 6 gives weighted average.

3
Assess Uncertainty

Standard deviation shows estimate reliability and risk.

Example

Input
O: 5 days, M: 10 days, P: 20 days
Output
Expected: 10.8 days ± 2.5 days
