A Gantt chart is a type of bar chart [4][5] that illustrates a project schedule. [6] This chart lists the tasks to be performed on the vertical axis, and time intervals on the horizontal axis. [4][7] The width of the horizontal bars in the graph shows the duration of each activity. [7][8] Gantt charts illustrate the start and finish dates of ...
For the subdivision of work units in PERT [9] another tool was developed: the Work Breakdown Structure. The Work Breakdown Structure provides "a framework for complete networking, the Work Breakdown Structure was formally introduced as the first item of analysis in carrying out basic PERT/CPM." [10]

Before a project schedule can be created, the schedule maker should have a work breakdown structure (WBS), an effort estimate for each task, and a resource list with availability for each resource. If these components for the schedule are not available, they can be created with a consensus-driven estimation method like Wideband Delphi. [5]
Project planning is often used to organize different areas of a project, including project plans, workloads and the management of teams and individuals.
