Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bar chart for use in planning management of project work and for grasping progress.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is known a bar chart in which a progress rate indicating a degree of achievement of a plan is displayed by a bar.

In the display of the progress rate on the bar chart, the length of the period display bar for displaying the entire planning process from the start to the completion is set to 1, and the bar is displayed as a ratio to the length of the bar, and the current date ( It is possible to know the progress status of whether the plan is ahead of schedule or behind the schedule by the positional relationship with the progress aggregation date).

A similar process control table is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 64-299.
No. 65 publication.

[0005]

However, in such a bar chart, it is possible to know the progress / delay of the plan (progress status) by displaying the progress rate, but the cause of the progress / delay (the man-hour is input). However, there was a problem that it was impossible to know whether it was delayed or not because man-hours could not be input.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems. An object of the present invention is to display a progress rate so that the progress status can be grasped and the cause of plan progress / delay can be known. To provide.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, a bar chart according to the present invention displays a time axis displaying a date and a start and an end based on a planning period in correspondence with the time axis. A period display bar, a progress rate display bar that displays the progress rate indicating the degree of achievement of the plan in comparison with the period display bar as a ratio to the length of the plan period, and the input man-hours with respect to the estimated total man-hours in the plan period. It is characterized by having a manhour display bar displayed in comparison with the period display bar in a ratio to the length.

[0008]

With the bar chart according to the present invention, the progress status of the plan at the present time can be read from the progress rate display bar on the period display bar, and the man-hour display bar on the period display bar can also predict the progress at the present time. Since the input man-hours can be read against the total man-hours, the progress status can be grasped and the cause of the progress or delay of the plan, such as whether the man-hours were delayed or not due to the man-hours not being input can be identified. I can know.

[0009]

Embodiments of the bar chart according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the bar chart 10 includes a time axis 11 and a period display bar 12.
And a progress rate display bar 13 and a man-hour display bar 14.

Since the progress of the plan can be grasped by knowing the degree of achievement of the plan displayed by the progress rate display bar 13, it is possible to manage the plan of the project work by using the bar chart 10. it can.

In the figure, a basic design project A and a prototype design project B as project work are displayed.

The time axis 11 is shown on the bar chart 10 as a horizontal axis, and the periods corresponding to the planned number of days to carry out the target project work are sequentially displayed by date.

The period display bar 12 is a starting point 12a based on a scheduled period (planned period) required to carry out the project work.
Is formed in the shape of a thick band that connects between the end and 12b,
The time axis 11 is displayed in parallel with the time axis 11.

In the figure, for the basic design project A, the period display bar 12 is used to set the start point of the time axis 11 as the start point 12a and the 6/1 of the time axis 11 (June 1st, hereinafter the same) as the end point 12b. The period is displayed, and for the prototype design project B, the period display bar 12 displays a planned period in which 6/1 of the time axis 11 is the starting period 12a and 8/1 is the ending period 12b.

On this period display bar 12, a progress rate display bar 13 and a man-hour display bar 14 are displayed in parallel with each other while being clearly distinguished from the period display bar 12.

The progress rate display bar 13 compares the progress rate indicating the progress of the project work with the current achievement rate (plan achievement degree) with respect to the completed state to the period display bar 12 as a rate with respect to the length of the plan period. Is displayed. The progress rate display bar 13 is displayed by a thick line extending from the start 12a to the end 12b of the period display bar 12.

In the figure, for the basic design project A, the achievement rate of 100% is the starting point 12a of the period display bar 12.
Is displayed by the progress rate display bar 13 that reaches the end 12b of the period display bar 12, and for the prototype design project B, the achievement rate 55% is from the beginning 12a of the period display bar 12 to the approximate center of the period display bar 12. It is displayed by the reaching progress rate display bar 13.

The man-hour display bar 14 displays the number of man-hours already put in at present with respect to the expected total man-hours required to carry out the project work, as a ratio to the length of the planned period, in comparison with the period display bar 12 by a thick line. The man-hours are displayed in units of man-months. For example, in the case of one man-month, one worker represents the work amount for one month. This tact display bar 14
It is displayed by a thick line extending from the starting point 12a to the ending point 12b of the period display bar 12.

In the figure, for the basic design project A, the man-hours (55
Since the number of man-hours exceeds the expected total man-hour (50 man-months), the man-hour display bar 14 is displayed beyond the start 12a of the period display bar 12 to the end 12b of the period display bar 12, and the prototype design project B For the current date (7 /
8) According to the ratio of the estimated total man-hours (100 man-months) required to execute the project work of the man-hours already input (80 man-months), the man-hour display bar 14 is located at a position of about 80% of the entire period display bar 12. It is displayed.

Next, the operation of the bar chart having the above structure will be described.

As for the basic design project A, the progress rate display bar 13 indicates the progress rate 1 according to the bar chart 10.
The completion of the project work can be read at 00%, and it can be read from the man-hour display bar 14 that the actual input man-hour exceeds the expected total man-hour when the project work is completed.

On the other hand, for the prototype design project B, since the progress rate display bar 13 on the period display bar 12 has not reached the present date, the progress rate which should be originally reached compared with the elapsed days is reached. It can be read that it has not reached, and since the man-hour display bar 14 on the period display bar 12 is ahead of the current date, it means that the man-hours that have exceeded the expected number of days have been input. Can be read. Therefore, whether the progress was grasped by displaying the progress rate and the man-hours were input was delayed,
Or the progress of the plan, such as whether it was delayed because man-hours could not be input
You can know the cause of the delay.

Although the above embodiment is for a single project work, as shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of project works can be displayed in the same bar chart 20 so that each theme (project work) is displayed. )
The difference in progress rate among C, D, and E, the cause of the difference, and the balance of man-hour input can be easily read.
Further, by setting the display period to 6 months or 12 months, it is possible to utilize it for managing the progress of the period target.

Further, although the progress rate or the number of man-hours has been displayed in the bar of the bar chart, if the progress rate or the digestion rate is displayed as a ratio to the length of the planning period, it is above and below the bar or the bar. The same effect can be obtained by using a graph that displays only the progress rate and the digestion rate separately.

The embodiment has been described above with reference to the drawings. However, the specific structure is not limited to this embodiment, and the present invention is applicable even if there are design changes and the like within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention. Of course, it is included in.

[0026]

Since the bar chart according to the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it is possible to grasp the progress situation and to know the cause of the progress or delay of the plan by displaying the progress rate.
