Critical path in a project management refers to the critical steps needed for
sequencing the project and completing the project within a minimum / short
duration of time.
For ex: For a project release, if the minimum time line that the client has
suggested is for a month. Project Manager would identify the sequence of steps
and the timeline for each tasks. They would define all possible paths using a
Gantt Chart to accomplish the task within the product deadline. Whichever path
would be the shortest one would be considered as the critical path for the
project release.
