PERT CPM Excel Template Roadmap Infographic

Tech architecture infographic titled "PERT CPM Excel Template" using HOW-IT-WORKS adapted as a milestone timeline roadmap over two years. Create a consultant-deck style product roadmap infographic for a spreadsheet-based project planning tool, with a clear horizontal quarter timeline axis spanning 8 quarters: Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Year 1, then Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Year 2. Use swim lanes by team where applicable: Template Core, Scheduling Logic, Reporting, Collaboration, Documentation. Show labeled BOXES and feature cards placed on the timeline, connected by ARROWS to indicate dependency and rollout flow. Each box/card must contain an icon, a feature name in canonical English-tech form, and a one-line role description in English. Add sharp status pills on each card: Planned, In Progress, Shipped. Use realistic feature names only, such as Task Dependency Grid, Critical Path Calculator, PERT Duration Estimator, Milestone Gantt View, Baseline Snapshot Sheet, Resource Load Table, Printable Dashboard, Risk Buffer Notes, Excel Formula Audit, Import CSV Tasks, Conditional Formatting Alerts, Template Setup Wizard, Progress Tracking Sheet, Stakeholder Summary View. Include arrows with short English labels describing what flows or depends on what, such as 'task inputs', 'dependency update', 'duration estimate', 'critical path output', 'status rollup', 'dashboard metrics', 'print export'. Add supporting system-style component boxes around the roadmap where relevant to keep a technical architecture feel: Excel Workbook, Input Sheet, Calculation Engine, Timeline View, Dashboard Sheet, Export Layer, each with icon + name + one-line English role description, connected by arrows showing spreadsheet data flow. Add a numbered legend 1-7 in English explaining lifecycle and roadmap progression, for example: 1. Capture project tasks in input sheets. 2. Define task dependencies and milestone links. 3. Estimate optimistic, likely, and pessimistic durations. 4. Calculate PERT expected duration and CPM critical path. 5. Visualize milestones across quarterly timeline. 6. Track delivery status with planned, in-progress, and shipped markers. 7. Export stakeholder-ready reports and dashboard views. Visual style: warm earth palette with terracotta, sand, clay, olive, beige, muted brown accents; polished consultant presentation aesthetic; structured grid; crisp alignment; subtle shadows; elegant timeline columns; clear hierarchy; status labels rendered sharp; realistic business-roadmap mood; editorial developer-blog illustration, isometric or flat tech-diagram style, vector-clean infographic layout. Ensure quarter labels are accurate, the two-year horizon is visually balanced, and the search intent is expressed visually through spreadsheet planning, milestone sequencing, and project scheduling motifs without adding extra promotional claims. All text MUST be written in English (array). Every heading, label, caption, legend and metric name in the image must be in English — not English. Spell each English word correctly using English characters and diacritics. Numbers stay as digits, no real cloud-vendor logos (AWS / GCP / Azure) — use generic cloud icons, no watermarks Status labels rendered sharp. Realistic feature names — no overpromising. Quarter / horizon labels accurate.
