375: Democratize your scheduling with Pl...

Devon Tilly / The Art of Construction
About this episode
"We just fundamentally believe that we have to democratize scheduling without dumbing it down, which means, keep it powerful as well because construction scheduling is complicated."

In this conversation, host Devon Tilly chats with Nitin Bhandari to discuss the complexities and challenges of construction scheduling. Nitin shares his journey founding Planera, a platform aimed at improving scheduling practices in the construction industry. They discuss how construction scheduling is often used as a compliance tool rather than a performance driver. The industry has unique challenges that require high-level and detailed scheduling perspectives. Nitin provides valuable advice for professionals on how to approach technology adoption effectively. 

From Planera's website:

"Planera provides the power of sophisticated project scheduling software, yet is as easy to use as a Whiteboard or Excel. Founded by a group of software entrepreneurs and construction executives focused on modernizing construction software with a vision to improve the lives of all construction professionals and the world we live in. Planera's greater mission is to build a world class global company that democratizes construction planning to improve project outcomes and worker safety."
