Precast (Procurement) module in Lean PlanDo Flow

Use the Precast module of Lean PlanDo Flow (the Procurement discipline in the app) to follow every precast element and long-lead material from the order to its place in the building. Each stage is a form filled on the phone, and each record sits against the activity that needs the element.

Forms the module covers:

• Element and material register: order, mould, cast date, curing checks
• Inspection per element, with photos and a pass or fail for each item
• Delivery note and site receipt, linked to the installation task
• Installation record, which closes the loop on the plan

Library

In the Library, these forms sit under the Procurement discipline. Add one to your project with Add to Project. See Library.

Templates and workflows

An added form appears under Templates as Unpublished. Publish it, and Schedule and Start workflow appear beside it. The steps are the same as in the Quality module. See Create a workflow and Start or schedule a workflow.

On the look-ahead

A late element is a late installation. On a project with Flow linked to the plan, the installation task that waits for the element gets a constraint, visible to every trade on the look-ahead, until the delivery form is completed.

Who uses it

The procurement and precast coordination team on the main contractor's side, and the precaster, who fills the forms on the project's licence. Nobody on the project buys their own.
