What We Do
A great project schedule is critical to construction project profitability. 70% of projects are over budget, primarily due to poor schedule planning.
CPM Scheduling is hard, and tools have not evolved in decades, as many construction professionals are still using a 100-year-old concept like a Gantt chart.
Planera is a collaborative online whiteboard CPM software that is super simple yet very powerful.
Using Planera, users create resource and cost-loaded schedules in hours instead of weeks.
People with knowledge of the project can build sophisticated schedules themselves without the need for a scheduling expert or consultant, saving time and money, and reducing frustration.
