– to determine and monitor the timing and sequence of operations for optimum delivery of a project.
We use project management software to create project programmes in text and graphic form. The most common type of these is the Gantt chart, which shows the sequence of operations and their inter-dependencies. This allows the project to be seen in new ways and this insight allows management and re-arrangement of tasks to achieve savings in time and cost. In some cases the whole strategy of a project is re-thought because of critical factors not appreciated before.
