What is Master Schedule?

In project management, the Master Schedule is analogous to the conductor’s score in an orchestra, where all of the instruments’ notes and timings are meticulously ordered. It is the overarching plan that collects and organizes all of the different task, activity, and deadline schedules inside a project. Consider it a giant calendar that shows when each step should start, finish, and how they link to one another. This detailed plan keeps the project team on track by ensuring everyone knows what they should be doing and when, bringing the project to a successful conclusion.
