Making Schedules Usable and Easy to Share

Gardner Builders needed schedules that looked professional for clients and trade partners while still being simple enough for teams to build and maintain. When schedules are hard to format, update, or share, the plan quickly loses credibility and communication slows down. Gardner wanted a workflow that made it easier to create clear, client-ready schedules, keep updates moving without heavy administrative effort, and support adoption over time with training resources. The goal was a usable schedule that improved coordination and could be shared confidently with external stakeholders.
