GANTTRIGHT TEMPLATES
====================

115 starting plans across 45 industries, one folder each. Open the closest one,
rename the tasks to match your own work, and drag the blocks where they belong.
Nothing here is a form to fill in - it is a plan you edit.


WHAT THESE CARRY, AND WHAT THEY DO NOT
--------------------------------------

The sequence is the useful part. Which step blocks which, where the hard gates
sit, and what can safely run alongside something else - that is what these
templates hold, and it is the part that takes years to learn and minutes to get
wrong.

The numbers are a starting shape, not an industry benchmark. Durations are
plausible rather than researched. Hours per period were chosen so the Resource
Load graph shows something sensible. Replace both with your own the first time
you use a template: you know your crew, your suppliers and your site better than
any template can.

Some waits genuinely are fixed, and those are worth keeping. Statutory
determination periods, curing and clearance times, manufacturing lead times,
laboratory incubation - where a duration is a real constant rather than an
estimate, the task note says so.


HOW A TEMPLATE IS BUILT
-----------------------

  Pink blocks    Critical work. The spine of the plan. If one of these slips,
                 the finish date slips with it.
  Green blocks   Work with room to move. The arrows on either side show how far
                 it can slide before it starts to matter.
  Diamonds       Milestones. The moments the plan is measured against - a permit
                 granted, a design frozen, a certificate issued.
  The last one   Project Finish. Drawn as a line the full height of the chart,
                 because it is not one row's business.

Trades and Shutdown plans are measured in days, because that is how those jobs
are quoted. The rest are in weeks. Work never lands on a shaded weekend in
either. Leads are fictional. Every task carries a note saying why that step is
there and what it blocks; open the Task Inspector to read them.

STARTING FROM ONE
-----------------

1. Open the template closest to your work.
2. Save As under your own project name before changing anything.
3. Rename tasks and leads. Keep the shape - the dependencies are the useful part.
4. Put your own durations in. The ones here are a starting shape.
5. Drag blocks to your dates. Anything pink pushes what follows it; anything
   green slides within the room its arrows show.
6. Turn on Resource Load to see whether one person is carrying three jobs in the
   same week.

The fastest way to learn the chart is to drag a pink block and watch what moves.
