//"Produce and use detailed working schedules, which includes a range of inductrial applications s well as the concepts of sytems and control. Simulate production assembly lines by using appropriate ICT".//

Gantt Chart
This is an overall plan for your entire project that starts from the Design Situation & Brief/research through to the final production and evaluation. It is easy to do as a table or in excel and then copy and paste it into your portfolio. Have a look at the example below.



This should be a flow chart for the manufacture of your product. Make sure you show Inputs, Outputs, Processes and Feedback. Include performance checks (ways of ensuring quality control).

Below is an example of a flowchart used for the batch production of a travel game. You can download the file to use as a template.

**Schedule:**
Plan the manufacture of your product and include health and safety considerations which must show consideration for yourself and others. Use the following headings: OPERATION, MATERIAL, PARTS AND COMPONENTS, TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT, RISK ASSESSMENT (HIGH, MEDIUM OR LOW, SELF & OTHERS), ESTIMATED TIME, ACTUAL TIME TAKEN, QUALITY CONTROL.

= Manufacturing / Production Schedule = Here is an example of the heading titles for an appropriate manufacturing schedule: Process of Manufacture** ||  || **Materials** ||   || **Tools & Equipment** ||   || ** Risk Assessment ** ||   || **High / Medium / Low** ||   || ** Estimated Time (minutes) ** ||  || **Actual Time**
 * **Operation
 * (minutes) ** ||  || **Quality Checks** ||

You may download the following file as a template to use for the manufacture plan/schedule, please add in the additional headings shown above though.

**Industrial Applications:**
Show the systems that you have used to batch produce parts of your project. I.e. laser cutting, printing, vinyl cutting, using jigs and templates. There must be clear evidence that you have used these things in your project, not just researched them. There might also be evidence of this in your 'Make Product section.
