Overall, the software tools used for WFP will depend on the specific needs of the project and the preferences of the project team. It is important to select software tools that are compatible with the overall project management approach and that can support the WFP process effectively.
One of our clients came to us with a specific request—they wanted to implement Workface Planning without the full AWP compliant support. While we strongly believe in the power of AWP to enhance project outcomes, we accepted the challenge, tailoring our WFP expertise to fit their needs. The results were transformational;
By delivering IWPs free of constraints, the crews were able to stay focused on their work, spending less time waiting for instructions or materials. We used platforms like Procore to align teams and streamline communication, ensuring everyone was on the same page. Thanks to detailed planning, we avoided costly mistakes and delays, leading to significant cost savings. With better project alignment and smoother operations, we saw a drop in supervisor and craft worker turnover, creating a more stable workforce.
Despite initial reservations about implementing AWP, the client was thrilled with the improvements in cost control, schedule performance, and overall project delivery.Insight-AWP WorkFace Planner
