Consider an improvement project in your real or fictitious organization that would need a Gantt Chart to track its progress.

• Describe the improvement project.
• Make a list of at least 5 tasks that would go on your Gantt Chart. Next to each task, specify its duration, resource(s), and predecessor(s). You do not have to make an actual Gantt Chart. For example:
  • Task Description, Duration = X, Resource = X, Predecessor = X.
  • Task Description, Duration = X, Resource = X, Predecessor = X.
  • Task Description, Duration = X, Resource = X, Predecessor = X.
  • Task Description, Duration = X, Resource = X, Predecessor = X.
  • Task Description, Duration = X, Resource = X, Predecessor = X.
• How long would the overall project take to complete?
• Why would a Gantt Chart be necessary for this project, as opposed to a simpler Plan of Action & Milestones (POAM) or Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)?
