 Until 1900, civil engineering projects were generally managed by creative architects, engineers, and master builders themselves, for example, Vitruvius (first century BC), Christopher Wren (1632–1723), Thomas Telford (1757–1834) and Isambard Kingdom Brunel (1806–1859). In the 1950s, organizations systematically applied project-management tools and techniques to complex engineering projects.
-Henry Gantt (1861–1919) was the father of planning and control techniques. As a discipline, project management developed from several fields of application, including civil construction, engineering, and heavy defense activity. Two forefathers of project management are Henry Gantt, called the father of planning and control techniques, who is famous for his use of the Gantt chart as a project management tool (alternatively Harmonogram first proposed by Karol Adamiecki), and Henri Fayol, for his creation of the five management functions that form the foundation of the body of knowledge associated with the project and program management. Gantt and Fayol were students of Frederick Winslow Taylor's theories of scientific management. His work is the forerunner to modern project management tools, including work breakdown structure (WBS) and resource allocation.

 The 1950s marked the beginning of the modern project management era, where core engineering fields come together to work as one. Project management became recognized as a distinct discipline from the engineering model's management discipline. Before the 1950s, projects were managed on an ad-hoc basis in the United States, using mostly Gantt charts and informal techniques and tools. At that time, two mathematical project-scheduling models were developed. The "critical path method" (CPM) was developed as a joint venture between DuPont Corporation and Remington Rand Corporation for managing plant maintenance projects. The U.S. Navy Special Projects Office, the Lockheed Corporation, and Booz Allen Hamilton, as part of the Polaris missile submarine program, developed the "program evaluation and review technique" (PERT).

However, as applied to a specific project that includes unique goals, adherence to a strict timeline and subjection to a set amount of resources, project managers must pay special attention.
