| It doesn't matter who you select to collect this data, or how you format the Control Chart, or if you use an iPad or a print out and chicken scratch. What does matter is that you do collect it. Not only will the data be necessary for your look-ahead schedules and calculating the deviation from the baseline schedule, but your preconstruction team will find it invaulable when bidding on new projects, and your operations team will use it to better negotiate with subcontractors for the next job. The video illustrates best practices for collecting these actuals: start/finish dates, percent complete, manpower per activity, quantities per location. The flowchart in the video is for information purposes only. We hope you will organize your workflow based on your personnel - you may have one person on a project who can do it all, like a Superintendent. Or you might like to team up a new scheduler with an experienced Superintendent -- this way each party can concentrate on their core competency while learning this new workflow.
