- ║ Welcome to GANTT.. Around 1910 Henry L. Gantt defined a set of ║
- ║ charts to graphically display schedule status to management. ║
- ║ Gantt's charts are still a standard in industry and government. ║

- ║ Pictures are worth a thousand words and with modern computers ║
- ║ they can be brought to you at electronic speeds. You will see: ║
- ║ - The Original Plan. ║
- ║ - The Actual progress toward the plan as it is executed. ║
- ║ - Current projections for the remainder of the plan ║
- ║ - Problem areas like critical paths and overdue activities. ║
- ║ - Trends which may need attention. ║
