of projects, which consist of numerous activities.

 the CPM (Critical Path Method) (for developing strategies to complete a


project in less than what would normally be regarded as the minimum time)

 the PERT (Project Evaluation Review Technique) (for determining


probabilities associated with completion times when the activity durations are
unknown).
PREREQUISITES

 Gantt chart forces group members to think clearly about what must be done to
accomplish their goal.

 Computer software can simplify constructing and updating a chart.

 They are useful in managing the dependencies between tasks.

 When a project is under way, Gantt charts are useful for monitoring its
progress. You can immediately see what should have been achieved at a point
in time, and can therefore take remedial action to bring the project back on
course.

 This can be essential for the successful and profitable implementation of the
project.

To draw up a Gantt chart, it must follow
these steps:
1.Create a Task List for the Microsoft Project Timeline

 The first step in building a Gantt chart is to create a list of required tasks.
Try to prioritize the tasks in the order they need to be completed. Even if
there are dependencies involved, put in tasks that need to happen first.

1. Open Microsoft Project and click Blank Project.

2. Add the list of tasks for the project to the Task Name Column.

for each one in the project.

1. Click on the Start cell for the first task.

2. Enter the start date by clicking on the arrow in the box and selecting it
from the calendar or enter the dates manually.

3. Enter the end date for the task by clicking on the


corresponding Finish cell. Click the arrow in the box to select a date from
the calendar or enter the dates manually.

4. Leave the Duration cell empty, Microsoft Project will automatically


populate the amount of days the task will take.
Continued
 Enter the predecessors according to the dependency of the activities or tasks
on others..
 Automatically create the Gantt chart bar on the basis of the durations, starting,
finishing and predecessors.
 Schedule them in such a way that sequential actions are carried out in the
required sequence.
 Ensure that dependent activities do not start until the activities they depend on
have been completed.
 While scheduling, ensure that you make best use of the resources you have
available, and do not over-commit resource.
