The collaborative nature of the system makes it a unique solution to the typical problems facing companies that are managing multiple development and construction projects. e-Builder Collaborative Scheduler automates the distribution of each person’s tasks and allows each team member to manage and prioritize their own work. The system also automates schedule updates as certain tasks and priorities change during the project. Additionally, the system automatically notifies all affected parties of changes that impact a project’s critical path, as well as providing accurate reports across one or multiple projects.

Jonathan Antevy, e-Builder Founder & CEO noted, “This upgrade fills a void in the market that other project-specific and point scheduling systems do not address.” Antevy added, “most scheduling systems require all updates to be made by one person, which is time consuming and difficult. And reporting status across many projects is a manual and labor-intensive process which leads to outdated information, missed deadlines, and inaccurate forecasts. e-Builder Scheduler simplifies the way teams manage schedules resulting in accurate and timely information, and ultimately faster project delivery.”

The e-Builder Collaborative Scheduler Upgrade provides these key added features:

• Critical Path Functionality – Predecessor, successor, constraints, and task relationship features.
• Management Controls – control approvals and date changes.
• Link Documents and Workflow directly to tasks.
• Improved Reporting – Easy access to real time schedule and milestone data across one or multiple projects. Gantt chart views for all project schedules.
• Report Subscriptions – Automatically receive status reports in email.
• Complete Historical Data Archive.
