Summary: | The importance of planning and monitoring in any activities, more particularly researches can
never be over-emphasized. Inadequate research planning and monitoring leads to delayed
delivery of results, inefficient use of resources and increased cost. There are various research
tools available and being used to assist in research planning and monitoring. An efficient tool
should address the issues under study, the methodologies used, the expected results in
sufficient details, the timelines, and monitoring features. However, there is arguably no
existing tool that can support all the features individually. In this paper, a new research
planning and monitoring tool, K-chart is proposed. K-chart provides all the features mentioned
above and presents them in a simple way. This paper elaborates on the construction of K-chart
and its advantages |
