Types of scheduling techniques

We need to use project scheduling techniques or planning strategies in a project to align all its features so that it works seamlessly. The plan must be within the scope of the project and all its resources must be used efficiently. Given the flexibility of the project and its scope, it is difficult to plan it, but we are expected to do it because we are the ones who will be held accountable.
