A specific type of project schedule compression technique performed by taking action to decrease the total project schedule duration after analysing a number of alternatives to determine how to get the maximum schedule duration compression for the least additional cost. Typical approaches for crashing a schedule include reducing schedule activity durations and increasing the assignment of resources on schedule activities. See also schedule compression and fast tracking.
