Frequently Asked Questions

To help you make an informed decision, we've compiled some of the most commonly asked questions.

What construction scheduling tools do operations teams need?

Operations teams need a CPM scheduling platform that supports real-time progress updates, field schedules, lookaheads, and collaboration between office and site. Planera provides all of this on top of a full CPM engine, so your operations team works from the same network logic the scheduler builds, not a disconnected spreadsheet.

How does Planera help construction operations teams stay on schedule?

Planera gives operations teams live visibility into critical path, float, and upcoming milestones. Field crews can update progress from any device, including iPad. The schedule recalculates in real time, so PMs and superintendents see the impact of changes immediately rather than waiting for a weekly scheduler update.

Can superintendents and PMs update the schedule without scheduler training?

Yes. Planera's visual interface lets superintendents and PMs make progress updates, adjust durations, and review the schedule without needing P6-level training. The CPM logic runs in the background, so the schedule stays mathematically sound even when non-schedulers are updating it.

How does real-time scheduling improve construction coordination?

When everyone works from the same live schedule, coordination becomes proactive rather than reactive. Superintendents see when upstream delays affect their work. PMs catch float erosion before it becomes a crisis. Subcontractors know what's expected next week, not just today. This reduces the back-and-forth that bogs down traditional scheduling workflows.

What is retained logic vs. progress override in construction scheduling?

Retained logic keeps the original activity sequence intact when work progresses out of order, which can extend the schedule to show the true impact. Progress override assumes out-of-sequence work will continue as-is, which shortens the forecast. Planera supports both modes, letting your team choose the approach that best reflects your project's reality.
