Critical path β€” next 30 / 60 / 90 days

Everything scheduled to start in each window, sorted by float β€” lowest first, so the tightest items surface even when there's real slack overall.

Hard constraints due within 90 days

Fixed-date/time activities due within 90 days, or in conflict. Red indicates upstream logic is tracking later than the fixed date allows.

Go / No-Go Gates

Minimum conditions required for the festival to proceed. Independent of overall schedule status.

IDGateTarget dateStatus
Critical path: activities with zero total float. Any delay to these directly delays the calculated finish date. This is a technical schedule-risk view, not a priority list β€” see Go/No-Go above for the handful of items that actually determine whether the festival happens. Split below by whether the item is needed by the festival's real end date (Aug 22) or only afterward, for closeout.
Critical, needed by Aug 22
IDActivityWorkstreamDurEarly StartEarly FinishTotal Float
Critical to closeout only (after Aug 22)

Zero float relative to completion of the full register, including post-festival administrative work β€” not the festival date itself. For closeout planning, not festival-risk review.

Feeding buffers β€” network configuration

Merge points where a non-critical activity feeds directly into the critical path. Buffers here absorb delay on the feeding side without adding float to the critical path itself. New merge points default to 2 working days; adjustable.

Resource basis: Owner Role per the activity register. Totals reflect scheduled working days for logic-linked activities only; unlinked (open-end) activities are excluded until connected.
Activities with no predecessor logic. Expected count: one (GOV-010, the project start milestone).

Risk assessment β€” Rev 0. All fields editable.
Weather β€” Aug 19–22, historical data

Historical climate data (NOAA, 55-year average) for these dates. Not a forecast. Forecast data becomes available approximately 10–16 days before the event.

IDCategoryRiskProb %ImpactOwnerMitigationStatus
Starting balances are estimates based on prior-year scale. All entries editable; add transactions as they occur.
Cash position β€” running ledger

Deposit and Payment entries affect bank balance directly. Reserved (active PO) and Approved (ready to pay) do not affect bank balance but reduce Available funds. Reclassify to Payment once funds are disbursed.

Cash needs by date

Projected cash outflows by date and amount. Dates are drawn from the schedule where available; amounts are estimates pending confirmation.

No sign-in exists yet, so approval buttons are visible to everyone the same way every other edit in this tool is β€” this tracks the real workflow status, but doesn't technically restrict who can click Approve. That needs the password system still on the list.

Approve is restricted to the Board President. Mark Received is restricted to whoever requested the PO. Mark Paid is restricted to the Treasurer/Finance Lead. None of this is enforced by a real login yet β€” it's hidden by name match, not secured. Real sign-in is still on the list.

Take a snapshot

Grading basis: on-time completion rate of tasks that have actually reached their due date. A person with zero tasks assigned is marked No Participation, not graded on a curve with everyone else. A person with tasks assigned but nothing due yet is marked Pending.
