What is a Gantt chart? What does Gantt stand for?
What will be an ideal response?
Gantt charts come in two flavors; the progress chart and the workstation chart. The progress chart shows the current status of jobs already in progress in the shop. The workstation chart shows the sequence of work scheduled at each workstation. This chart can be used to determine if a new job can be inserted in the schedule of any workstation without disrupting the progress of current jobs. In addition, the workstation chart can be used to arrive at a different schedule of the current jobs by trial-and-error. Gantt is not an acronym but an operations pioneer's last name. Henry Gantt.
