International Journal of Applied Systemic Studies (IJASS), Vol. 2, No. 3, 2009

Abstract: In the present competitive market conditions, in addition to quality and lower cost of products, sticking to delivery schedules is also a very important factor. This is difficult in a production environment where human skill and psychological factors still play a vital role. Permutations and combinations are used in the PERT method for solving such problems in different conditions through a developed software. The Tsch obtained in random and extreme conditions are studied with the actual project completion time over a period of time in the printing organisations to achieve Six Sigma levels in delivery schedules.
