Touchplan, a construction SaaS tool for implementing Lean construction principles, announced the reveal of its latest functionality; the ability to convert idle master schedules into measurable work processes. Initially created for financial purposes and crafted by schedulers rather than those doing the physical labor, master schedules create confusion and disconnect between the proposed plan and the actual work. The Touchplan update provides a solution that will put construction back on the map and pull the industry out of the past.
To launch this feature, Touchplan was sure to address a few specific needs:
- Work in conjunction with any existing master schedules (P6, Microsoft Project) – take
the information provided, and connect it with an interface that trades will actually use to
plan and improve their work process. - Offer pacing comparison – teams can match their current project status against the
master schedules to ensure projects are on-time and on-budget. - Connect and plan in multiple areas of your project – orchestrate construction site details
before they become problems.
With more than 15 years of experience in easing the pain of complex construction, Touchplan, a subsidiary of MOCA Systems, has continuously invested in its users’ need for functional value based off of feedback.
