Keep Production Moving as Projects Change
One project slips, and suddenly two major projects need the same crews at the same time. Building Swell shows how shifting project dates affect shop capacity so you can adjust production, commit headcount and flag delivery conflicts early.
Book DemoSee where projects compete
A later start does not necessarily mean a later delivery date. Bring each project's remaining production work into the same capacity plan so you can see when revised dates put more demand on the shop than the crew can cover.
- The packages and delivery dates each project needs
- The labor each package requires across its production stages
- The crews and stations already committed to other work
Resolve the overlap before committing
Suppose one project's drawings arrive late, pushing its production into the weeks reserved for another major project. Both still expect their original deliveries, and both need the same crew.
Compare the remaining work and required dates before moving either project. If the crew cannot cover both, bring that conflict to the project teams and agree which deliveries must move before issuing new shop assignments.
The revised plan makes the tradeoff explicit: the crew has an agreed sequence, and the project teams know which delivery commitments have changed.
Keep the next commitment realistic
As work progresses, compare the remaining demand with the crew you have available. Use that view to decide when to commit headcount or revisit a promised date before another project fills the same production window.
Bring two competing projects
Bring two projects that need the same crews. We can walk through where their production plans overlap and what needs to change before you commit to both.
