Calling all old and new dawgs. What are your expectations ( or demands ) from the trade partner foreman/supers I’m looking for specific personal and planning skills we could train on to elevate the pain on our projects. Exclude , know the plans Know Procore . We all know this area is a common topic.

Thank you everyone who joined and got something from the presentation. I realized the presentation was quite long along with the internet issues. But the TLDR: AI becomes useful in construction when we stop treating it like a one-off question-answer tool and start using it with our SOPs or (standard work). Skills are repeatable methods for recurring knowledge tasks. Skills help AI review the right information, follow a clear process, and produce more consistent outputs that teams can improve over time.

You DO NOT want to miss this gem of learning with Old Dawg Marcus Turner, our own internal AI master! #genius #mastermind #MarcusIntellience

Missing tomorrow and sorry for that was looking forward to another great Thursday.

Dawgs! Over the past few jobs we have run the Pull Plan both analog (Sticky Notes and Boards on the wall) and online (we used Touch Plan). Analog is great because of the natural conversations that happen when the foremen are up at the boards, updating their commitments and bumping shoulders with each other - the "hum" of conversation in a room during our sessions was organic and the lifeblood of the job. Then we needed 2 assistant level guys spending 3-4 hours on a Friday collecting data, entering it on a spreadsheet, chasing foremen down for variance reasons or "Hey you haven't updated your plan yet". Ultimately it was a chaotic way to get the "Learning" part of our LPS done. When we utilized Touch Plan, all of that worry went away because the program tracks all that for you, forces people to put variance reasons on any commitment that changes its finish date, tracks PPC in any way you could want and pumps out pretty reports. The problem is that "hum" in the room during foreman's meetings was gone. We tried to replicate it throughout the job and while we still had an effective pull plan, it wasn't nearly as effective as analog. I am wondering if others have had this same experience and if anyone would be interested in a program that can pump out statistics based on a picture of your analog boards? Would like to discuss this a bit further with you all tomorrow but please give me some feedback!
