Ep.1089 - How Do You Schedule Renovations?
In this podcast we cover:
- How smaller companies schedule their work.
- Other tips that can help for smaller more variable projects.
In this episode, I answer a listener’s question about how to schedule small residential renovation projects when CPM and Gantt charts keep failing. These projects may be smaller in budget and scope, but they involve multiple trades that must be coordinated effectively. I explain why takt planning works even for small renovations, how to use a time by location schedule to identify gaps and stacking, and how to overlay multiple projects to balance resources. I also emphasize the importance of preparing work packages and making schedules visual on huddle boards so crews can align. If you are in residential or renovation work and struggle with slipping schedules, this episode will show you a practical system to create flow and predictability.
