What is Backward Pass?

Assume you’re organizing a road vacation. You are aware of the deadline by which you must get at your destination. Working backward from that day, you determine when you need to leave the final stop in order to arrive on time. The reverse pass has a similar meaning in project management. It’s like inverting a project timeline. You begin with the end date, then determine the latest feasible completion date for each work to guarantee that the entire project is completed on time. It’s all about understanding when to perform each stage in reverse order so that the entire job is done on time.
