Platform Features
Built for construction.
Not adapted from it.
Every feature in TradeFlow Planner was designed around how construction teams actually plan, schedule, and manage crew — not repurposed from generic project management software.
See your entire project at a glance.
A Gantt-style scheduling timeline built for how construction actually works — not adapted from software project management tools.
- Drag-and-drop task scheduling across weeks and months
- Set task durations, start dates, and end dates
- Visualize phase overlaps and sequencing
- Color-coded activities for fast visual scanning
- Zoom in/out from day view to project overview
Know your crew demand before it hits.
The running manpower chart automatically calculates total crew demand week by week based on your scheduled activities and crew sizes.
- Auto-calculated from your schedule and crew assignments
- Spot peak demand weeks before mobilizing
- Identify gaps and overloads across the project
- Compare manload across multiple active jobs
- Export manload data for reporting and planning
All your jobs. One snapshot.

- Monitor crew counts across all active jobs
- Quick-access to any project timeline
- Identify which jobs need attention today

Why TradeFlow Planner
Focused on construction scheduling and manpower planning.
A capability comparison, not a scorecard. What a general-purpose project tool can do depends on the product and on how much it has been set up, so the right-hand column says what varies rather than what is missing.
| Capability | TradeFlow Planner | General project tools |
|---|---|---|
| Construction activity scheduling | Every activity carries its trade, crew size and duration, and the timeline is built around them. | Usually generic tasks. Trade and crew size often require configuration. |
| Required vs. projected vs. actual manpower | All three on one chart, compared day by day, with the gap called out. | Rarely built in. Varies by product. |
| Cross-job visibility | Several jobs on one timeline, and on one manload chart on Pro. | Varies — often one project at a time. |
| Field focus | Laid out for a phone or tablet on site, not just a desk. | Varies by product. |
| Setup | Add a job, add its activities, and the schedule and manload draw themselves. | Often requires configuration before it fits how a crew works. |
