Planning Your Time

Why plan instead of just do? Time is one of the most critical resources in any project. Good planning spreads the necessary work over a reasonable period of time. Poor planning leaves people stuck and idle, then forces them to scramble to catch up later on.

Work Planning Aids Timeline Gantt Chart PERT Chart

Timeline A Timeline is a clean and concise visual representation of a series of events. It helps you to arrange large chunks of time and see the overall plan easily.

Gantt Chart A Gantt Chart is a more detailed description of the schedule, focusing on when individual tasks will be worked on.

PERT Chart A PERT Chart is a tool for illustrating workflow dependencies. It shows the order in which tasks must be completed because they depend on each other.

Planning a Birthday Party You are planning for a birthday party. The party is in 3 weeks. You will use a PERT Chart, Timeline and Gantt Chart to plan your party. 1.Construct a PERT Chart to see what must be done first, second, etc. 2.Identify dates for deliverables, both final and interim 3.Construct a basic Timeline with the set deliverables 4.Sort the tasks in your PERT Chart by due date 5.Use the dates from the timeline and the tasks from the PERT chart to build the Gantt chart 6.If conflicts arise, work within your group to reallocate resources to resolve them, & adjust your documents accordingly 7.Finished PERT Chart, Timeline, and Gantt Chart go into Proposal

Construct a PERT Chart 1.Identify all the necessary tasks in the project. 2.Identify dependencies – groups or sequences of tasks that must come in a certain order for one reason or another. Use an arrow to indicate tasks that must occur in a certain sequence.

Sample PERT Chart for Birthday Party

Identify Dates 1.Identify dates for deliverables, both final and interim. 2.List deliverable dates and deadlines

Identify Date Example Birthday party will be on October 10 (time TBD) Cake must be ordered 24 hours in advance – by October 9 – to be ready in time Friends need at least two weeks notice in advance (September 26) Final preparations must begin at 8am on party day

Construct a basic Timeline

Sort Tasks by Due Date

OR…..

Build the Gantt Chart Build the frame of the chart. There should be one row for each task in the PERT chart, and one column for each working day in the project from start to finish. Estimate how long it will take to work on each task, and fill in blocks for days on the chart when you will work on them.

Gantt Chart Example

Build the Gantt Chart Estimate how long it will take to work on each task, and fill in blocks for days on the chart when you will work on them.

Filled in Gantt Chart

Conflicts You need to pick up the cake and make party food at the same time on the party day 10/10. You can’t be home to cook and leave to get the cake at the same time, what should you do?

Submit Plan If someone needs to approve your plan for the party, these charts would go into your submission as proof that you will be able to accomplish the task in an organized and timely manner.

Homework You will create your own personal PERT Chart, timeline and Gantt chart that represents your timeline to high school graduation. On a piece of paper, make a list of tasks and assign each task tentative start and stop dates (or duration) and the people responsible for the task. Also list important milestones and their dates. If you have more than 15 or 20 tasks, split your project into main tasks and subtasks, then make an overall Gantt chart for the main tasks and separate Gantt charts for the subtasks which make up each main task.
