See how real electrical teams run their work
One electrical prefab team planned different assembly types across spreadsheets, whiteboards and separate trackers.
With Building Swell, shop managers, planners and QC work from the same views for daily and weekly planning. They can follow what is in design, what is in production and what is ready to ship across the shop's different assembly types.
Customer storyOne process for every assembly
Racks, skids and duct banks follow different routes through the shop. Give each type its own production steps, with drawings and field dates kept with the work in Building Swell.
Your team uses the same way to plan, assign and track each package, even when the assemblies change. As detailing develops, break the package into buildable work and see where it competes with other jobs for a crew or station.
Make room for rush work
A rush rack order needs a station already booked for another job. Putting it first could move work you have already promised.
Move the proposed work in Building Swell and recalculate the affected schedule. Compare options in capacity planning and the simulator against the crew and station constraints.
If the rush order pushes another job back, compare a different sequence or take the affected dates to the people deciding the priority. The field's requested date still needs an answer.
Put the agreed sequence into the plan. The crew gets its assignment, and the project team knows which delivery needs attention.
Give the crew a plan that will hold
The scheduling decision needs to reach the people building the package. Keep assignments, drawings and discussion with the order so the crew can find the work and its context.
Record progress and the relevant quality checks as the package moves through the shop. A planner reviewing the next job can see which stage the crew has reached and what has been checked, rather than reconstructing the package's status from separate conversations.
See it through the lens of your next project
Bring an assembly, its field date and a change that makes it difficult to schedule. We can walk through how Building Swell represents the work, compares the affected plan and connects the decision to the shop.
