Construction Time Planner

Plan construction projects from the first task to the final handover.

Flowtig Construction Time Planner helps construction companies, architects and project managers organise every phase of a construction project in one central schedule.

Instead of managing timelines across spreadsheets or disconnected planning tools, Construction Time Planner provides a structured project plan with tasks, dependencies, milestones and an interactive Gantt chart—keeping everyone aligned throughout the entire project.

Built for construction planning

Construction Time Planner creates a structured project schedule that helps teams coordinate work, monitor progress and understand how every activity contributes to the overall project.

Why use Construction Time Planner?

Construction projects involve many moving parts.

Questions like these arise every day:

  • Which task should start next?
  • Which activities depend on each other?
  • What happens if one task is delayed?
  • Are we still on schedule?
  • Which milestones have already been completed?

Construction Time Planner provides a complete overview of the entire project, making planning more predictable and communication easier.

Overview

With Construction Time Planner you can:

  • Plan construction phases
  • Organise project tasks
  • Define task dependencies
  • Manage milestones
  • Visualise schedules using an interactive Gantt chart
  • Monitor project progress
  • Coordinate project teams

Construction Time Planner Overview

Project Planning

Every construction project begins with a structured plan.

Construction Time Planner allows projects to be organised into logical phases, making even large developments easier to understand and maintain.

Typical project phases include:

  • Site preparation
  • Foundations
  • Structural work
  • Roofing
  • Interior construction
  • Final inspection

Breaking projects into phases improves clarity for everyone involved.

Tasks

Projects consist of individual tasks that define the work to be completed.

Typical task information includes:

  • Title
  • Description
  • Start date
  • End date
  • Duration
  • Progress
  • Status
  • Responsible person

Together, these tasks form the foundation of the construction schedule.

Dependencies

Construction work rarely happens in isolation.

Many activities depend on previous work being completed before they can begin.

Typical examples include:

  • Foundations before structural work
  • Structural work before roofing
  • Roofing before interior construction

Dependencies make project schedules more realistic and immediately highlight the impact of delays.

Tip

Defining dependencies early helps create reliable and predictable construction schedules.

Milestones

Milestones represent important achievements throughout the project.

Typical milestones include:

  • Building permit received
  • Foundations completed
  • Roof completed
  • Technical inspection
  • Project handover

Milestones provide clear reference points that make project progress easier to communicate.

Interactive Gantt Chart

The interactive Gantt chart provides a visual overview of the entire construction schedule.

It helps project managers quickly identify:

  • Active tasks
  • Upcoming work
  • Completed phases
  • Project milestones
  • Task dependencies

Gantt Chart

Progress Tracking

Project progress can be monitored throughout the entire construction lifecycle.

Typical progress indicators include:

  • Not started
  • In progress
  • Completed

Keeping progress information up to date helps everyone understand the current state of the project.

Team Coordination

Construction projects often involve multiple companies, subcontractors and stakeholders.

Construction Time Planner provides a shared project timeline that helps coordinate responsibilities and improve collaboration across the entire project team.

Permissions

Construction Time Planner uses Flowtig's central permission system.

Typical permissions include:

Permission Description
View projects Browse construction schedules
Create projects Create new construction projects
Edit schedules Modify project timelines
Manage tasks Create and update project tasks
Manage milestones Maintain project milestones

Permissions can be assigned independently, allowing organisations to control who may plan and manage construction projects.

Best Practices

Recommendation

Define the major construction phases before creating detailed tasks. A well-structured project is easier to maintain throughout its lifecycle.

Tip

Review task durations and dependencies regularly to ensure the schedule reflects the actual state of the construction project.

Note

Keep milestones up to date to provide customers and stakeholders with a clear picture of overall project progress.

Integrations

Construction Time Planner integrates naturally with other Flowtig applications.

App Integration
Construction Log Compare planned activities with actual site progress
Calendar Display milestones and important project dates
Contacts Project partners, subcontractors and stakeholders

As the Flowtig platform grows, additional integrations will become available.
