RECLAIM YOUR VOICE IN THE PLANNING PROCESS

The Problem

Trade partners are expected to “follow the plan,” but the plan is often buried in emails, PDFs, and last-minute conversations. Updates come late, constraints aren’t visible until it’s too late, and coordination turns into more meetings—pulling crews away from productive work. When planning feels like an added process instead of part of the work, buy-in drops and the job pays the price.

Help build the lookahead without slowing your crew down.

Outbuild makes collaboration low-friction: trade partners can review and adjust upcoming work, confirm commitments, and share progress directly from the field. Instead of chasing the “latest schedule,” you always have one shared plan—so coordination happens in the flow of work, not in extra meetings.

Always Current Plan

View the latest lookahead and weekly commitments in one place, without tracking down emails or PDFs.

Commit in Minutes

Confirm readiness and make reliable promises with quick, straightforward updates.

Mobile-Friendly Updates

Update your tasks from the field so the plan reflects reality—fast.

Flag Risks Early

Surface constraints and potential delays before they impact the crew or downstream trades.

Progress Made Visible

Share real-time progress so the team can coordinate confidently and avoid surprises.

Capture Variance Reasons

Log why work didn’t go as planned to improve next week’s commitments and reduce repeat issues.

Fewer Coordination Meetings

Replace status-chasing with lightweight in-app updates and clearer shared visibility.

Stronger Trade Voice

Make trade input part of the planning process so the weekly plan is realistic, not aspirational.

"We are a subcontractor, and a small one at that.  We have learned some hard lessons when playing with some of the larger GC's.  This tool has made it easier to manage and navigate schedule acceleration, to see the failures of a GC when they start to get pressure for deadlines, it allows us to keep the GC's and owners informed and allows us to plan our crews to be the most effective while being fluid and communicating in all directions.

“The ability to couple roadblocks with our use of Procore, tie submittals, tie RFIs to tasks within the schedule that are linked together, so in that way we can truly run our project through the schedule itself. It’s different than we’ve done in the past and I think is the right approach.”

“This platform can help us elevate our game, improve our scheduling, and standardize it across the company like we did with Procore. It provides one platform that everyone uses the same way and is also easy to launch anywhere because it is cloud-based.”
