Project Life Cycle Gantt Chart
Visual timeline tracking project phases from initiation through closure with weekly milestone markers.
This Gantt chart template maps the complete project lifecycle across distinct phases—initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure—with start dates and weekly progression columns. It's designed for project managers and team leads who need to communicate project schedules to stakeholders and keep teams aligned on phase transitions and deliverables.
The template eliminates manual timeline calculations by using formulas to auto-populate weekly columns from your project start date. Track which phases are active during each week, identify phase dependencies, and spot scheduling conflicts at a glance.
