Finishing a construction project on time and on budget is every builder’s goal. But unexpected weather, supply delays, overbooked crews, and faulty workmanship are just some of the risks that can throw construction projects off schedule.

Construction planning sets the stage for success because it gives everyone a clear timeline to follow, with critical information documented in a single source of truth. A construction management plan also makes it easy to spot overages early so you can address issues quickly and minimize the impact of delays.

Watch this episode for a quick introduction to construction scheduling. We also created a free template to help you plan, update, and communicate your construction schedule quickly and easily—whether you’re renovating a bathroom or building a new home from the ground up.
