The PERT distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on both sides. Being an alternative distribution to the triangular, it has the same three inputs (minimum, most likely, and Maximum), but is a smooth curve that puts less emphasis on extreme values. The PERT distribution is often used in risk analysis applications, for example, in Monte Carlo simulations to assess cost and project duration risks.
