A simple alternative to Microsoft Project for construction scheduling
all the features you need, none that you don't.

Replace MS Project with a scheduling
software built specifically for construction.

Outbuild is a user-friendly scheduling and planning tool for
construction PMs and Superintendents that simplifies day to day functions

Build your schedule in minutes.

Change activity duration directly from your Gantt chart with quick drag and drop functionality and connect predecessors/successors with one simple click. No need for hard coding!

With Outbuild you can build your master schedule in minutes
use Outbuild embedded into Procore today

Procore integration.

You don't have to switch back and forth, use Outbuild embedded into Procore today. Create your master schedule with Outbuild and push it to Procore with one click.

Field and office finally connected.

Now your Lookahead is connected to your master schedule but lives in a separate place. Tasks at the Lookahead level will automatically roll up to the activities of your master schedule as you update them.

Why are builders replacing MS Project with Outbuild?

"MS Project could be the most powerful tool on the market but does the vast majority know how to really use these tools at the end of the day? In our experience, not really.

It's too complicated to figure out all the bells and whistles it can do. 

The truth is that you have a silver superintendent who change smokes, who doesn’t like computers and you are going to try to get him to use a program complex like that. 

Is not going to happen.

That’s why it is so important to use intuitive and simple scheduling programs. To encourage people and make it easier to have all the actors involved in the same conversation."
