Create Gantt chart style construction schedules easily and quickly.

Is this an alternative to buying a software package?

Unfortunately not!

The industry standard for creating project schedules is Primavera P6, and is regarded as the best software for construction planning.

However, you may notice that it comes with a very hefty price tag! Of course for major contractors this isn’t an issue, but smaller contractors will question whether their business would benefit from all the extra features.

So, this Excel template is not designed to compete with functionality of bespoke planning software, but it can give you the look, and basic functionality of a construction programme for a fraction of the cost of planning software. It is easy and quick to use, and should be more than enough for most contractors and self builders.

Create Gantt chart style construction schedules quickly and easily with our template.
