2.2 Gantt Charts

 

• General form,

 

• tasks

 

• These charts should be updated on a regular basis to track the progess and completion of each task.

 

• Things to look for when doing Gannt charts include,

- gaps when no tasks are boing done

- too many concurrent tasks

- too much/too little detail (charts can be broken into subcharts to isolate detail)

- associate people and resources to tasks

 

• Good ideas when constructing Gantt Charts,

- identify critical paths and move forware to create slack time

- delay costly components to reduce WIP
