The challenge

What is at stake.

The developer's lenders and tenants asked for progress in different formats. Each contractor scheduled differently, and the developer could not compare buildings or spot problems across the portfolio.

Our role

What we are doing.

Beck Franklin's role: schedule templates and reporting. We advise and measure; the contractor builds.

01

Schedule template

We built a schedule template with standard WBS, milestones and logic for a tilt-wall distribution building.

02

Program Rate

Because the template was reused, each new building was set up at the discounted Program Rate.

03

Portfolio report

A monthly portfolio report compared all six buildings on the same milestones.

04

Lender package

Lender reports were produced from the same data, so numbers matched across audiences.

Results

Where it stands.

The second building should not pay for the first one's setup. A shared template made every building cheaper to control.
