What is a Gantt Chart?
A Gantt chart is a useful tool that shows activities displayed against time. All activities are listed to the left of the chart and a time scale is displayed at the top of the chart. Representing each activity is a horizontal bar indicating the starting date, duration and deadline. The tool is very commonly used in project management because it gives a clear overview of:
- What the different activities within the project are
- When each activity is initiated and when the deadline is
- How long the activity lasts
- Overlap between activities and by how much
- The start and end of the entire project
