As the name indicates, milestones indicate important stages in the project management. Reaching each of these stages is comparable to commuting additional miles.

Keeping end in the mind, decide the key stages in the project management - For ex:

1. Obtaining legal permissions

2. Developing project planner

3. Completion of civil work

4. Installation and commissioning of key equipments

5. Obtaining legal consent to operate a plant

6. Commissioning of the plant

 

These all represent key milestones in a project to establish new plant.

You mean "milestone", not mile stone

anyway, the milestone in the world of project management represents any important event in the future,

like purchase specific tool or finishing specific task.
