Explanation

A Gantt chart is a scheduling tool that visually displays project tasks against a timeline, showing planned versus actual progress, task durations, dependencies, and milestones. When a sponsor raises concerns about the project timeline, a Gantt chart is the most appropriate tool to review the schedule, identify delays, and show the project's current status against the original plan. A maintenance window schedule (B) is for IT operations. Functional requirements (C) define what the project should deliver. Test results (D) indicate quality, not schedule performance.
