Project Schedule

Build the schedule by phase — and see the crew it takes.

Type your phases, drag them onto the calendar, and set the men per week. It prints as a GC-ready 11×17, and the same schedule shows up against your live crew supply so you know which weeks you’re short before you get there.

The Project Schedule page open on a job — the phase rail on the left, seven color-coded phase bars stepped across the week calendar with milestone diamonds on their edges, and a crew row showing the men planned for each week.

Rides your Manpower module. Same login, same crew, no second system.

No new app, no new bill. It’s included in your plan.

No charge until day 15. 14 days free, cancel anytime.

Where it lives

Its own tab — every job’s schedule in one list.

Project Schedule sits in the hub’s top bar, between Manpower and Daily Reports. Open it and every job’s schedule is right there in one list — dates, phase count, the GC it’s for, and a chip on the jobs split into buildings.

Pick one to keep building, or start a new one. Finished jobs archive out of the way instead of cluttering the list you work from every week.

The Project Schedule list — one quiet row per job with its color dot, date range, phase count and client, buildings-count chips on the linked jobs, and a New Schedule button.

Build it

Type the phases. Drag them onto the calendar.

Type your phases into the left rail — Footings, SOG, Tilt-Up — and each one gets its own row. Drag across the calendar to place its bar and the name fills in for you. Drag a bar to move it, pull an edge to resize it, click it to rename, recolor or re-date.

Drag a phase’s number to reorder the list, and the printed sheet follows — the activities print in the order you set, not the order the dates happen to fall.

The phase rail beside the calendar — seven numbered activities from Foundations to Paving with their durations, the first bars placed on the weeks with milestone diamonds on their edges, the crew row beneath, and a Type a phase field at the bottom.

Crew loading

The men per week sit right under the phases.

Click a cell inside a phase and type the crew you’ll need that week — or day by day when Day Mode is on. Where two phases overlap, the cell shows the combined total, and you can hard-set it when the real number isn’t just the sum. The row keeps a running peak so you can see the worst week at a glance.

On the Projection board

…and the same schedule lands against your live crew.

Everything you build here shows up on the Manpower Projection board automatically — read-only, next to the crew you actually have, with the gap strip and net band telling you which weeks come up short. Click a schedule’s name there and it opens right back here to edit.

These are the same numbers the crew forecast counts, so the plan and the labor forecast can never drift apart — there is one schedule, not a copy.

The Project Schedules lane on the Manpower Projection board — Cedar Port Bldg 1 and Bldg 2 carrying their linked-job chips beside Sawgrass and Ironwood, each schedule one read-only row with its PEAK crew and foreman, and the men planned for every week in the squares across the calendar.

Multi-building

Link the buildings of one job.

Split a job into Bldg 1 / 2 / 3 and give each its own phases — switch between them from the Buildings strip without leaving the job. They print on one continuous calendar: a band per building, milestones from all of them, and a stacked crew histogram that makes the combined peak impossible to miss.

Staggered and back-to-back buildings stay together on that one sheet. Only buildings whose dates genuinely don’t overlap print on their own.

And when you’re building all three at once, the All Buildings view opens the whole job full screen — every building as its own lane on one shared week axis, with alignment guides that follow the bar you’re dragging across every lane. You stagger Bldg 2 against Bldg 1 while you place it, not by switching tabs and checking after.

A linked job open on Bldg 1 — a Buildings strip with Cedar Port Bldg 1 and Bldg 2 plus Add Building, and that building’s own seven phases and crew row on the calendar.

One button, and it’s the sheet you hand the GC.

There is one Print, and it is always the share-with-the-GC sheet: title block, activity table in the order you set, the phase bars, the milestones, and the crew the schedule plans. Tabloid 11×17, ready for the trailer wall.

Your internal crew availability never prints — no available-crew line, no over-capacity marks, no short-handed callout. Run long and the schedule simply continues onto the next sheet, each labelled Sheet 1 of 3 with the dates it covers so they tape into one run.

The printed 11×17 schedule — two linked buildings banded on one timeline, milestones from both, and a stacked two-color crew histogram.

What you do on the page

Type the phases

Footings, SOG, tilt-up — type them into the rail and each gets its own row.

Drag them onto the calendar

Drag to place a bar, drag it to move, pull an edge to resize. The name fills in for you.

Set the crew

Click a cell under a phase and type the men for that week — or per day in Day Mode.

Pin milestones

Drop a ◆ on a bar’s start or finish — NTP, SOG complete, turnover. It rides the bar if the phase moves.

Shift when it slips

Move the whole schedule to a new start week — phases, milestones and crew together.

Print for the GC

One tap: the 11×17, always safe to hand over.

Why not a spreadsheet

	A schedule in Excel or P6	Planning Ops Project Schedule
Building it	Draw bars by hand, re-align every date change	Type the phases, drag them onto the calendar
The crew numbers	Live in a second sheet nobody updates	Sit under the phases — and feed your crew forecast
When the job slips	Move every bar one at a time	Shift the whole schedule to a new start week
Multiple buildings	A separate file per building	Linked buildings on one continuous calendar
Handing it to the GC	Export, crop, hope it prints	One tap: a GC-ready 11×17
What the GC sees	Whatever is on the sheet	Never your internal crew availability

Project Schedule — common questions

Is Project Schedule an extra charge?

No. It’s included in your Planning Ops plan — same $149/mo base, unlimited free viewers. It isn’t sold separately either: it rides your Manpower module and your Manpower access, so the schedules you build here are the same ones your crew forecast counts, and it never costs an extra seat.

Do I have to rebuild the schedules I already made?

No. If you already built schedules on the Projection board, they open on the Project Schedule page exactly as they were — phases, dates, crew and milestones — and Projection keeps showing them against your crew supply.

Does it print 11×17?

Yes — one tap gives you a GC-ready tabloid sheet with the title block, activity table, phase bars, milestones and a crew-loading histogram. A schedule too long for one sheet continues onto the next, each labelled with the dates it covers so they tape together.

Will the GC see our crew availability?

Never. The printed sheet shows the crew the schedule plans, but your internal availability — how short-handed you are in a given week — is never printed. There is one Print and it is always safe to hand over.

Can we split a job into buildings?

Yes. Link the buildings of one job and each gets its own phases, then they share one continuous calendar with a band per building and a combined crew histogram. The All Buildings view opens the whole job full screen — every building as its own lane on one shared week axis, with alignment guides that track the bar you are dragging across every lane, so you stagger the buildings against each other instead of switching tabs and checking afterwards.

Who can build a schedule?

It has its own role beside Manpower — Admin (edit any schedule), Editor (build their own), Viewer (read-only), or No access. Building requires a Manpower Admin or Editor underneath, and the role never costs an extra seat.

Lay out your next job by phase.

Type the phases, set the crew per week, and print the 11×17 the GC keeps.
