LO3: production schedules and forms

1. A production schedule is a way of keeping to the dates and deadlines set by the client, this ensures that certain elements of the production are done in correct time frames. This involves completing tasks such as filming and resources (hardware/software)- this shows to the client that their product is being handled by an organised team of people.

2. These production schedules are important as they allow the client and the company making the product to clearly map out the events happening toward producing the product.

Identify one project management tool that could be used to keep track of the project tasks and explain why it is suitable for the task [3]

One project management tool that could be used would be a production schedule, this allows the company to suitably plan out all of the tasks and activities that need completing in order to make the product successful for the client. It is a thorough way of planning and organising the workload into managable chunks and visually check off tasks that need completing in a certain time frame. It is suitable for this task as the client has asked for the product to be completed in a sum of 13 weeks should they be given the go ahead, the company then would make a production schedule as to give structure to the making of the product for example which elements need to be completed by week 1,2,3 ect.
