Recently I have had to submit both contract and grant applications, which often requires you to submit information related to the measurement of success and progress in a project. Gantt charts is a great way to get a good overview of major milestones in a project so is a nice thing to submit with applications to ensure that whoever reviews the application can get a good understanding of the different tasks in the project and when they will occur. It also allows a good overview for the project manager if the project gets approved so that they can ensure that the project meets its milestones on time and can help team members to ensure that their specific tasks are delivered on time. So here is some R code using ggplot allowing you to produce a neat Gantt chart which organize the different tasks into groups as well.
