Most construction software is built around the general contractor's workflow: drawings, RFIs, submittals, daily reports. When concrete subs try to use those tools, they end up storing the parts of their business that actually matter — pours, crews, ready-mix, pump, weather — in note fields and custom forms. The tool fights the workflow.
Planning Ops flips that. Pours are first-class. Crews are first-class. Ready-mix contacts, pump operators, GC supers — all named contacts on every pour record. The workflow you live in becomes the workflow the software is shaped around.
What concrete subs we work with do every day
Doesn't matter if you're place & finish, formwork, walls, decorative, or structural — the daily verbs are the same:
Place & Finish
Slab on grade, slab on metal deck, panels, dock pits, dolly pads. Yards per pour matters; finish quality drives schedule.
Flatwork
Commercial slabs, parking lots, sidewalks. Weather windows are tight; finishing crews specialize.
Structural
Footings, walls, columns, beams. Mix design is critical; pump booking is non-negotiable.
Decorative
Polished concrete, stamped, exposed aggregate, integral color. Specialized crews; weather sensitivity even higher.
All four answer the same operational question every morning: what's pouring today, who do we tell if it changes, are the right people scheduled, and does anything conflict?
The specific problems Planning Ops solves
One-click pour cancellation notifications
Set a pour to Canceled, pick the reason (Weather — with a sub-kind of Rain, Cold, Heat, Snow/Ice, Wind, or Other — plus Customer Delay, Material Issue, Crew Unavailable, Equipment Issue, or Other), optionally clone it to a reschedule date, and the hub assembles the recipients for you: project contacts, the assigned crew lead and office, and any screed or pump operator/sub on the pour. Each gets a high-importance email within seconds (SMS texting coming soon). Eight to twelve manual texts collapses to one click.
Live weather per project
Each project's ZIP drives a rolling 10-day Open-Meteo forecast painted across the row — decision-grade data without opening another tab. Cells are color-coded good / hedge / hold with a severe-weather flag, and colors shift as the forecast updates through the week.
Double-booking detection
Assign the same crew — or, when those add-ons are on, the same laser screed, screed operator, pump unit, or pump operator — to two pours on the same day and a red ⚠ badge appears on both pills, plus a click-to-jump popover, a banner above the grid, and a conflict list on every XLSX and PDF export. (Screed and pump subcontractors show as a soft FYI; canceled pours never conflict.) The clash doesn't reach Tuesday morning anymore.
Cubic yards rollups by day, week, region, project
KPI strip at the top of the schedule shows total yards for the visible window. Per-project chips. Region pivots in Excel exports. Stop building pivot tables on Monday mornings.
365-day Lookahead → daily Schedule approval flow
Stage work as pills on a 365-day rolling Lookahead, grouped by city into Current and Target jobs. When the GC confirms sequencing, hover the pill and click the green ✓ to approve it straight onto the daily Schedule. Promote a target to a live project, filter by city, and export the Lookahead to PDF or XLSX.
Your equipment and who's running it
Optional rosters (on per workspace) for laser screeds and concrete pumps — machine numbers, boom sizes, operators, and subcontractors — picked right in the pour editor instead of retyped. An optional truck-driver lane tags pickup/dropoff logistics on any day, even one with no pour.
Branded XLSX + PDF distribution
One click, your logo, your colors, formatted for the GC's preferred view. You can also email the schedule to your directory or outside recipients with a branded HTML body and the XLSX attached. No re-formatting every Monday.
What we don't do
Honest about limits:
- We're not project management — no RFIs, no submittals, no drawings markup. Those tools exist (Procore, Buildertrend) and they're good at that. If you need them, use them alongside Planning Ops.
- We're not accounting — no AP/AR, no payroll. We integrate via export (Excel/CSV) but we're not your QuickBooks replacement.
- We're not estimating — no bid creation, no takeoff. We capture pour-level yards but the estimating side is upstream of us.
