Independent Activities in Takt Planning
Not every project flows in perfect rhythm and that’s where most teams get stuck. What do you do with one-offs, irregular tasks, or activities that don’t fit neatly into the system?
In this episode of the Elevate Construction Podcast, Jason Schroeder breaks down how to handle independent activities inside your Takt plan without losing flow. You’ll learn:
-
Why every project has one-offs (and why that’s normal)
-
How to tie independent activities back into the main flow of work
-
The simple visual patterns that reveal whether you’re managing trades, zones, or one-offs
-
How to prevent trade stacking, trade burdening, and blind spots in your schedule
Independent activities aren’t a problem they’re part of the plan. Learn how to format, color code, and integrate them so your project stays on track and your team stays aligned.
