🤔 Did you know you can view your Site Diary data in a Gantt chart in real-time?

👀 Most people will just view their Site Diary as a PDF (or on paper if you are not yet with the times). If you are a bit more advanced, then you might push it into P6, Power BI or cool tools like Aphex.

👷‍♀️ But did you know you could also view it in real-time in a spreadsheet?

🤩 Despite the efforts of construction technology companies, the construction industry lives and dies by spreadsheets (despite the efforts of construction technology companies), so Google has added the perfect tool to Google Sheets for every budding Project Manager or Quantity Surveyor - Google Sheets Timeline View!

📊 Gantt charts have existed since the start of the 20th century and provide a great visual tool for illustrating project schedules and dependency relationships between activities and the current schedule status.

⁉️ So what makes the new Google Sheets feature worth writing about?

🥳 Read our latest blog to find out!
