The Gantt & scheduling
Planned vs actual across all sixteen trades. Generate a baseline, lock it, then track progress against it.
The Gantt is the project's programme — the planned versus actual timeline for every trade on site. It's how you sequence the sixteen trades, spot slippage early, and show the client where the job really is.
Generating a schedule
- On a project with commencement and completion dates set, choose Generate with AI.
- ScratchAI produces a sixteen-trade sequence appropriate for a Singapore interior fit-out — running from demolition through to curtains.
- Review and adjust the dates, then lock the baseline to freeze the planned dates.
Tracking progress
- Tasks are listed by trade with baseline bars and live progress bars.
- Tap a task to enter actual start and end dates and a progress percentage.
- Export the whole Gantt to a printable PDF for site meetings.
Why the baseline matters
The locked baseline is your reference for "are we on time?". Without it, every date is just today's optimism. With it, slippage is visible and arguable.
- Sequence realistically. The default order follows the natural site sequence, but real jobs have overlaps and constraints — adjust it to the actual plan.
- Update actuals honestly. A Gantt that's always "on track" because no one updates it is worse than none. Keep actuals current so the slippage shows while you can still act on it.
- Tie delays to causes. When a trade slips, link it to the RFI or VO that caused it — that's your evidence for an extension of time.
