In case of using methodology of project planning, in the first step we had to create a "good" logic network. We had to determine the successors and predecessors of the tasks. However, usually successors and predecessors proceed from the technology, sometimes (especially in case of IT and innovation projects) these relations between tasks are not explicit. In case of projects especially IT and innovation projects; one of the most critical points of views is the phase of logic planning. In spite of the fact that it is a very important phase, it is hardly supported by any kind of project management tools. Our goal was to support the logic planning phase. In our study a new planning method, namely Project Expert Matrix (PEM) is introduced. The PEM method can determine all feasible solutions with the help of stochastic variables and can also take into consideration all the possible precedents. The parameters of logic relations can be changed if the impacts on the project change. With this method the most probable project scenario can be determined taking into account time, cost, and resource demands. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media.
