Building it

Post-frame barn · part 5 of 7 · 1:20

The schedule, the crew packet, the time clock, daily logs, safety, inspections and extras.

What the narrator says

Part five: out in the field.
Scheduling drafts the build schedule from the model: every task in order, the inspections as hold points, and the supplier lead times. The site's weather forecast sits right on top.
Below the chart are the activities and who is on site when, so you can see which crew each week needs.
Print the crew packet for the truck: the next two weeks, the plan, and the cut list, so nobody is guessing on site.
On a phone, the crew clocks in and out, and Keystone checks they're actually on the job site. Their hours flow into job cost and payroll.
The daily log takes a minute: who was there, what got done, deliveries, delays, and photos. It works with no signal and sends when the phone is back in range.
Toolbox talks, job hazard analyses and incident reports live with the job, and the OSHA log is kept from the incident reports.
Every inspection is a hold point. A failed footing inspection, with the inspector's note and a photo, stops the work that would cover it until it passes.
When the owner asks for something extra on site, the crew flags it in the daily log. The office prices it as a change order, and it isn't built until the owner signs.
Next, the money.
