Excerpt from The Gantt Chart: A Working Tool of Management
In 1917, after a careful inspection of certain factories in which Mr. H. L. Gantt had installed his methods, General William Crozier, then Chief of Ordnance, retained Mr. Gantt to act in a consulting capacity 011 production, first at the Frankford Arsenal, and then, immediately after the declaration of war, in the Ordnance Department at Washington.
Large orders had been placed with arsenals and other manufacturing plants for the production of arms and munitions, but it was difficult to get a comprehensive idea of what progress was being made in the filling of these orders. Quantities had suddenly jumped from hundreds to millions, and it was impossible to convey by means of typewritten tables the significance of such unusual quantities or the time necessary to produce them. Charts of the usual type were unsatisfactory because they did not sufficiently emphasize the time and because of their bulk, since only one item could be put on a sheet.
Mr. Gantt concentrated his attention on the development of a method of charting which would show a comparison between performance and promises. Several years previous to this time, he had used a chart on which the work for machines was "laid out" according to the time required to do it. The Gantt Progress Chart, as developed from this early form, was found to help in the making of definite plans and to be highly effective in getting those plans executed.
