🏗️ Master Scheduler: First Iteration

Just wrapped my first client project — a fully automated construction scheduling system built for residential contractors.

This system solves one of the biggest headaches in construction: keeping schedules organized and up-to-date without constant manual work.

Here’s how it works:

📝 Smart Project Onboarding: Contractors submit a new project via Airtable. The system breaks it into tasks and estimates durations automatically.
👷 Intelligent Crew Assignment: It checks crew availability and skills, then schedules tasks around active projects without conflicts.
📱 Executive Assistant (via Text): Contractors can ask questions or make updates to the schedule just by texting the system. No need to open any dashboards.
📆 Daily Crew To-Do Generator: Every morning, the system sends each crew member their daily assignments by text—where to be, what to do.
🔁 Live Feedback Loop: When a crew member finishes early, they can text the system. It automatically updates the schedule and optimizes the remaining work.

This build turned hours of manual scheduling into a fully automated backend that runs 24/7 and gets smarter over time.

This project is not finished yet and it still has its quirks, but it is shippable. I will be working with the client for the foreseeable future to iron out the kinks and truly make it bullet proof.
