A project timeline is a visual list of tasks or activities organized by date that allows project managers to see the entire project in one place usually shown by a horizontal bar chart, with each task assigned a name and a start and end date. A project timeline gives the researchers a detailed perspective of the entire project from beginning to end, while buyout refers to the period of transition between the pre-construction phase and the project's construction. Purchase orders and subcontracts are issued during the purchasing process. The aims of this research are to examine the development of project management timeline and material buyout application to ship construction planning. Besides that, the researcher also identifies the problems encountered such as delaying the completion of a project, the time taken for the completion of a project, and costs can be increased. This research is to assist in speeding up a project that is carried out on a timely basis due to most of the projects are carried out over a specified period. Therefore, this project is implemented to facilitate project managers in the shipbuilding industry. Furthermore, the methods used in this study are checklist and comparison matrix which can be used to review the result when using the comparison matrix after reading. The findings of this study characterize the effective methods that must exist fast, guaranteed quality and cost savings to complete a project. Thus, overall, it is shown in this study that the more effective and appropriate the CPM method is used in shipbuilding, especially in the management of shipbuilding projects, a significant impact on the project manager is achieved. From the investigation of this research, the CPM method is more effective to use in shipbuilding compared with others. This is because this method efficiently assists the project managers to save costs when running a project.
