Schedule Management Services
Realistic schedules.
Promises kept.
We aggressively manage our schedule to meet your goals. How? Our approach starts with good sequencing and phasing, paired with an honest, collaborative discussion with our trade contractors and the entire team.
Together, we reduce waste, increase efficiency, and tighten the schedule.
Our schedule drives everything we do and you can have confidence in the timeline.
Based in Reality
At Jacobe Brothers Construction, when it comes to
developing project schedules, we don’t just tell you what you want to hear or commit to a date we know is unrealistic.
When we commit to a completion date, you can have confidence in our word. Why? Because before we ever commit to that date, we evaluate whether it is achievable. We evaluate all project risks, logistics and critical path activities. We consider the current demands on the supply. We scrutinize the available labor resources. And we look at historical data from similar commercial construction projects.
Only then do we devise a wise plan of attack to ensure your project finishes on time. When we promise, it’s because we are confident we can really deliver.
Accountability
Often, general contractors produce a schedule, but they don’t really use it to truly manage the project. On Jacobe Brothers Construction job sites, we conduct planning sessions each morning to review milestones, get trade contractor buy-in, and assign resources as needed to meet schedule goals.
In addition, your Jacobe Brothers Construction project manager regularly meets with our entire management team to review the schedule each month to ensure it is achievable and to identify gaps in sequencing strategy, staffing levels, or milestones in jeopardy.
We course correct along the way, so we deliver your project when promised.
Transparency
From the moment we begin a commercial construction project, we have honest conversations with every party related to the project – our clients, the design team, and our trade contractors – to set realistic expectations and a commitment to meet our milestones.
Our project manager and superintendent monitor the schedule daily and update it to reflect activities in the field. Assessing the schedule each day and holding planning meetings each morning allows us to effectively share information critical to completing the project on time. There is no confusion and there are no excuses…we lay it all out for everyone to see.
The entire project team, including the Owner, also have access to all communications and project updates via Procore©; our cloud-based project management software.
