A project manager needs a visual tool to display task durations, start and end dates, and the dependencies between tasks on a horizontal time scale. Which of the following tools would BEST meet this need?
A Gantt chart is designed to represent tasks as horizontal bars along a timeline, showing start and end dates, durations, and dependencies between tasks. This makes it ideal for visualizing the project schedule and tracking progress over time. A PERT chart focuses on task sequencing and estimating project duration but does not display tasks on a time scale. A milestone chart highlights key events or deadlines without detailing task durations or dependencies. A project network diagram illustrates task relationships and sequences but lacks the time-scaled representation of task durations.
