Project Scheduling

An example of one of the many projects that Men’s Warehouse does is a new store opening. TMW is always looking for new exciting locations where there maybe an unmet demand in men’s clothing. For a new location, some tasks will include first to choose a location. Once the location is chosen then a renovation will be required depending on what the building was before. The place needs to accommodate for all the suits, registers, tailor shop, fitting rooms, and proper lighting. After this, they need to hire employees for such positions as managers, tailors, wardrobe consultants, and sales associates. To complete this project they need to stock all the merchandise for example the suits, shirts, and materials for the tailors.


Although I am not positive if the Men’s Warehouse uses Gantt charts, it would definitely make such a process a lot clearer, easier, and time effective. If TMW does not use the Gantt charts, I recommend they start. This chart allows you to see which tasks need to be completed, when they should start and by when they should finish by, in a very clear visual way.
