Optimize with Location Based Scheduling for better oversight and problem solving

Construction management on-site face challenges in adopting Location-based Scheduling, including resistance to change, the learning curve associated with new methods and software, integrating it with existing processes, ensuring accurate and reliable data, and managing communication and collaboration among stakeholders.  

If you’re involved in Construction Management as an architect or engineer responsible for scheduling, adopting Location-based Scheduling can greatly enhance your project oversight and issue management compared to traditional Gantt Charts. This visual method provides a comprehensive view of progress and facilitates the identification of delays and effective solutions. Even complex schedules can be condensed onto a single page.

As the on-site scheduler, you can provide Contractors and Clients with a streamlined and optimized time schedule that ensures smooth workflow between different disciplines and tasks while minimizing risks. Any planning flaws or errors become easily visible and can be swiftly addressed.

Reduces conflicts and gains valuable data

By implementing this method, conflicts are reduced, and a positive work environment is fostered on-site. It becomes simple to visually demonstrate and communicate the consequences of delays caused by subcontractors, making it easier to handle requests or claims from contractors who may assert that they will meet deadlines despite being behind schedule. This approach enables you to verify the feasibility of their statements promptly.

Moreover, this method offers valuable historical data, such as the progression rate of specific contractors. You can assess whether achieving a higher progression rate with the same number of workers is realistic. Additionally, during coordination meetings, real-time projections of the time schedule can be generated, enabling visualization of the ripple effects caused by delays on subsequent activities.
