Common Challenges
Siloed planning processes
Integrate the planning of each scope of work by collaborating across subcontractors, disciplines and departments for more predictable results.
Lack of visibility to ancillary risks
Facilitate the planning and mitigation of safety, quality and environmental risks, ensuring a safe environment and a job well done.
Inefficient communication of work packages to the field
Seamlessly dissect the package details into daily segments for release to the crew at the time of execution.
Ability to leverage data from other sources
Easily blend and leverage large amounts of data from other sources for broader project exploration.
Disconnected quantity progressing in side spreadsheets
Delineate component level quantity detail with weighted rules of credit to drive budget percent complete.
Outdated progress reports leading to reactive decisions
Proactively define progressing goals and drive top performance with real-time productivity feedback at the operation.
FAQs
What is construction work planning?
Construction work planning is the process utilized in capital project management to lay out how the work will be managed and executed. This begins as early as design and procurement and continues through the operation of contractors and subcontractors.
What are construction rules of credit?
Construction rules of credit is a method of progressing construction tasks or materials through weighted steps. Each step is assigned a percent value for the units as a way to partially progress work at a more detailed level than the control budget may allow. An example would be partially claiming a single unit of pipe by completing each step of unload/sort, fit up, weld and quality check.
Why would you measure project performance percent complete?
The project performance percent complete is a key variable used in calculating Earned Value. It specifies what percentage of the activities that are planned have been completed, therefore providing the driver for what cost, quantity or labor units have been earned to date.
What is a construction daily plan?
A construction daily plan combines three key field data points, time, quantities, and daily logs, into a single streamlined process. The plan communicates activities to complete, the amount of time planned for each, and additional key talking points for the crew to know as they approach their day. By capturing each data point throughout the shift, the daily plan becomes an operational record of what happened that day for each crew on the project.
How does construction daily planning differ from workface planning?
The added element of quantity tracking is what differentiates construction daily planning. While workface planning focuses on analyzing, forecasting and planning workforce supply and demand, construction daily planning takes this to the next level by integrating the project quantities that need to be completed into the analysis. This then becomes the driving force behind the forecasting of workforce moving forward.
