Construction tasks and schedule
Reliable job costing and a trustworthy schedule start in the same place: tasks. When project work is split into tasks, hours are allocated correctly, progress is visible and analytics tell the truth. In Plavigo, tasks, the Gantt timeline, hour tracking, materials and site photos work together.
The task list doesn’t have to be written by hand: Plavigo AI suggests a task list from the project description — with dates and assignees — and you edit and approve it.
Task list and Gantt in one view
The project’s Tasks tab shows the work two ways: as a list where every task has a date range, assignees and progress, and as a Gantt timeline at month, week or day zoom. Dragging a bar updates the schedule directly.
- Planned vs. actual hours per task
- Gantt timeline: month, week and day zoom
- Overdue tasks highlighted
- A project timeline card on the management view
Hours are allocated to tasks
Workers pick a task in addition to the project when logging hours, so every hour tells which work phase it went to. The task progress bar compares logged hours to the estimate — overruns show immediately, not in hindsight.
Materials and photos attached to tasks
Materials can be assigned to tasks: you see what was used for each work phase and what it cost. Site photos link the same way — under a task you find its materials, costs and photo documentation.
AI suggests the task list
Describe the project or let Plavigo AI read its description — it proposes a task list with a schedule and assignees. You edit the proposal in a form and approve it: tasks are on the project timeline in minutes.
Frequently asked questions
Why allocate hours to tasks?
Task-level hours show where time and money actually go. Job costing, quote pricing and schedule estimates all improve when data is at work-phase granularity.
Does Plavigo have a Gantt chart?
Yes. Tasks show on a Gantt timeline at month, week or day zoom. The schedule can be changed by dragging bars, and overdue tasks are highlighted.
How does the AI help with tasks?
Plavigo AI proposes a task list for the project based on its description — with dates and assignees. The proposal is reviewed and approved in a form before anything is saved.
