Project Schedule

The Project Schedule offers a customizable view of the tasks entered into the construction project schedule. A Microsoft Project schedule can be uploaded to create the schedule in Procore. Unique among construction project management software packages, it offers a choice of views that goes beyond the standard scheduling software Gantt chart.

Construction software is used by a wide range of people, who may not all have experience with construction project schedules and Gantt views. For this reason, Procore presents the construction project schedule in a calendar view, available as a daily, weekly or monthly view. Project tasks for the construction schedule are presented as individual bars. Each bar displays the task name, as well as the resource assigned to that task and the task start and finish dates.

An authorized user can choose to change the task start date, the task finish date, or the percentage complete for each individual task. Whenever one of the schedule task data points is edited, Procore will require the user to fill in a text box with the reason for the change. Whether or not the user provides a reason for the schedule change, the User ID, date and time of the schedule change is recorded in the project database.

Procore’s unique task change logging feature makes it possible for the entire history of a construction project schedule to be recalled at any time using the Reports page. The construction project schedule can also be supplemented with “To-Do List” items. These items are not edited by a users construction project management scheduling software and remain on the Project Calendar Screen when new schedules are uploaded.
