Scheduling Tools Can Be Too Complex to Maintain
WPC needed a scheduling tool that stayed useful in real project conditions without becoming a constant maintenance burden. Too much complexity makes teams avoid updating the plan, while oversimplified tools fail to support real coordination. WPC was looking for a workflow that balanced usefulness with manageable effort so schedules could stay current and credible. They also needed a solution that fit existing processes, supported training and onboarding, and worked well alongside core systems like Procore.
A Useful Workflow with Strong Support and Procore Fit
Outbuild helped WPC keep scheduling useful without making it a heavy maintenance burden for project teams.
- Practical schedule usability: A balanced workflow supports real coordination while staying approachable enough that teams keep the plan updated.
- Support that scales adoption: Training videos and responsive help make onboarding smoother across projects and roles.
- Procore-compatible workflow: Integration fit reduces duplicate entry and helps keep project information aligned across systems.
"The Outbuild team has been supportive from the very beginning and is always available to answer any questions. The training videos they offer are exceptional. The interaction with Procore makes it a perfect fit for our team."
Better Fit and Stronger Support
WPC described finding a better balance between scheduling usefulness and the complexity required to maintain it. With strong training and a Procore fit, teams could keep scheduling valuable without it becoming an ongoing maintenance burden.
