How to Track Milestones, Variances, Roadblocks, and Procurement in Construction

This video shows how to track milestones, variances, roadblocks, and procurement inside InTakt. Jason walks through how workflows can become dynamic procurement logs, deferred submittal logs, or preparation logs that are tied directly to the production plan. You will see how roadblocks are tracked before they hit the Weekly Work Plan, how supply chain issues show up in real time, and how milestone variance helps teams protect the end date. This is about keeping procurement, readiness, buffers, and flow visible so the team can see as a group, know as a group, and act as a group. Blog Post: https://elevateconstructionist.com/ho...
