Task Engine / For the people who deliver the project

Builder_TE &
Designer_TE

Your project plan. Your next move. In one place.
See what needs attention, open the work behind it, and act without losing your place. Tasks, quotes, contracts, documents and conversations stay connected from the first plan to the final handover.

Meet Control Tower

More than a place to track work.
A partner in moving it forward.

Your plan becomes a working view of the project. Expand a task to see its documents, quote requests, responses, contracts and conversations. Review delivery milestones and sign-off alongside the activity, then open the record you need without leaving the chart.

Control Tower groups activities beneath each task, with a task schedule bar and visible rows for missing documents and quote requests.
Actual application screen, shown in part. WCTK demo project; dates and counts are illustrative, not live project results.
  • Spot missing steps.

    See tasks without documents or quote requests. Open the relevant workflow directly from the chart to take the next step.

  • See what's waiting.

    Follow quote requests and vendor responses in time. Distinguish awarded responses and conversations awaiting a reply without opening every task.

  • Act in context.

    Open the existing task, quote or communication screen in a modal. Review or update the record, then return to your place on the chart.

Two ways into one Task Engine

Your work is different.
The need for clarity is shared.

Builder_TE and Designer_TE bring the same connected project workflow to two perspectives: coordinating the build and carrying design into delivery.

For builders

Builder_TE

Bring trades, scope, dates and commitments together. See the activity behind each task and keep the build moving with its documents and decisions attached.

For designers

Designer_TE

Carry design intent into delivery. Keep drawings, supplier quotes, project tasks and client conversations connected to the work they shape.

From possibility to project

A plan. A team.
A connected client.

Carry the same project information forward. From the first cost model to the latest site update, the next step starts with what you already know.

  1. Establish the project

    Planning &
    pro formas

    Bring scope, actual supplier quotes, budget assumptions and timelines into a working project model. Prepare a clear package for owner review and sign-off.

The Task Engine

Every task keeps the whole picture.

A task is more than a name and a date. It carries the scope, drawings, costs, supplier responses and conversations needed to move the work forward.

That record stays connected as estimates become quotes, quotes become contracts, and planned milestones become work ready for review. Control Tower brings those records together; Budget and Progress keep the financial and delivery picture in view.

The project delivery process

One connected record.
Three operating phases.

That operating path is organized into three phases. Plan establishes a credible project model. Commit replaces assumptions with market-tested pricing and supplier commitments. Deliver keeps execution, communication and financial control connected through completion and closeout.

Phase 01 / Plan

Build the project model

Outcome: a clear preliminary scope, schedule, budget and cash-flow plan.

Why this, why now

Construction does not need more disconnected tools.

It needs continuity: a system where the project, task, supplier, commitment and document remain connected as the work advances.

“The advantage is not software looking at construction from the outside. It is construction experience turning itself into software.”
01

A workflow built around actual project sequence, from project setup through contract administration.

02

A shared operating context for internal teams, suppliers and clients without exposing the complexity behind it.

03

A practical foundation for cleaner project data, faster decisions and a more scalable delivery business.
