A project manager needs to create a visual representation of the project schedule. The tool must display the start and end dates for all tasks, show the duration of each task as a horizontal bar, and illustrate the dependencies between tasks. Which of the following is the BEST tool for this purpose?
The correct answer is a Gantt chart. A Gantt chart is a bar chart that is specifically designed to illustrate a project schedule. It visually displays project tasks against a timeline, showing start and finish dates, durations, and dependencies between tasks. A risk register is used to track risks, a fishbone diagram is used for root cause analysis, and a budget burndown chart tracks spending against the budget, not the schedule's tasks and dependencies.
