Build the Plan.Hold the Line.

The Schedules module turns a static Gantt into a living plan. Critical path computes itself, the field works from real lookaheads, and every slip shows up the day it happens — not at handover.

Complete Planned Critical path

A schedule built like an operating system. Purpose-built for general contractors, ErectOS runs the master schedule as live infrastructure — computing the critical path, briefing the field, and reporting the truth every single day.

Built on the critical path

A real CPM engine underneath. Forward and backward pass on every change, float tracked task by task.

Powered by Pulse

ErectOS watches every slip, delivery, and approval — and flags what it means before it costs the finish date.

Made for the field

Lookaheads your supers actually run. Progress flows back from the daily log, not the Friday meeting.

Build the plan that knows what moves the date.

Sequence the job with real dependencies, milestones, and crew loads. The moment anything changes, the longest chain to substantial completion recalculates — and every downstream date moves with it.

Duct delivery slipped 3 days — MEP Rough-In float is gone. It now drives the finish date.

Suggested resequence

Pull Drywall — north wing forward 4 days. Recovers the Oct 5 finish.

The plan the field actually runs.

Roll the master down into a 3-week lookahead your supers and trades work from. Every commitment carries its constraints, so blockers get cleared before the crew shows up — not after.

Wired to the whole build

Schedules reads from and writes to every module it touches — the plan and the project never drift apart.

Daily LogsField → Schedule

Field progress posts straight to % complete. The Gantt updates the night the work happens.

Change OrdersCO → Schedule

Approved COs push their schedule deltas automatically — the slip is priced before it is absorbed.

WorkforceCrews → Schedule

Crew assignments drive resource load on the plan, so leveling reflects who is actually on site.

ForecastingSchedule → Cost

Schedule slip feeds cost forecasts and completion dates the moment it appears.

The schedule updates itself. The field just builds.

Daily Logs → Schedules

Every change order prices its delay before you sign it.
