Basic Project Plan
Calculator.
Build a simple eight-task project plan, calculate working-day deadlines, compare planned and actual costs, and track your project's progress in real time.
Your project plan
Edit the eight sample tasks below. End dates use Excel's WORKDAY convention, excluding weekends but not holidays. Your data stays in this browser session and is not saved.
Plan with clarity.
Enter a task start date and working-day duration to calculate its end date. Planned cost is estimated hours multiplied by hourly rate. Project completion is weighted by each task's planned cost, so larger tasks contribute proportionally more.
All calculations happen locally in your browser. No accounts, downloads, exports, or data transmission. Replace the tutorial and workbook links before publishing.
