The problem

Most residential jobs are run on six disconnected systems.

01

Static spreadsheets go stale fast.

The schedule is accurate the day it's built. A week later nobody trusts it, and everyone keeps their own copy.

02

Meeting decisions get buried.

What was decided lives in a notebook, a text thread, or an email nobody can find when it matters.

03

Field activity is disconnected from the plan.

What actually happened on site never makes it back into the schedule, so the plan stops reflecting the job.

04

Schedule problems show up too late.

You find out the target date slipped when there's no time left to do anything about it.

05

Multiple versions of the truth.

Office, super, and PM each work off a different file. Nobody knows which one is current.

06

Follow-up has no clear owner.

Action items get agreed to out loud, then drift with no name, no due date, and no link to the work.

Shared project workspace

One workspace. One current view of the job.

Your organization holds the members, the jobs, the tasks, the meetings, the dates, and the reports. Everyone works from the same project instead of trading files.

  • Multi-user jobs, tasks, and meetings
  • Changes appear across connected devices
  • Live presence on the project you’re viewing
  • Conflict detection instead of silent overwrites

Schedule and forecast

Plan the work. Track the progress. See the target move.

1

Create the job

Set up the project and its core information in your company workspace.

2

Build the task schedule

Break the job into construction tasks and put them in sequence.

3

Set planned dates

Establish planned and target dates for the work and the completion.

4

Update tasks as work happens, or import documented activity from Daily Logs.

5

Review the forecast

See how current performance is affecting upcoming dates and the target.

6

Meeting Tracker

Turn the meeting into the next set of tasks.

Every project meeting becomes a structured record — what was decided, what changed, what’s at risk, and who owes what by when. Action items can link to an existing project task or create a new one on the spot.

Action-item ownership is recorded as a name. Project Tracker does not currently assign tasks to user accounts or send automated assignee notifications.

Plan versus actual

Connect the office
and the field.

Import compatible .xlsx or .csv exports from PlumbLine Daily Logs and compare scheduled work against documented jobsite activity — without entering anything twice.

The two apps are companions: Project Tracker handles schedules, forecasting, meetings, and coordination. Daily Logs handles field documentation, photos, employee time, and checklists.

Features

Focused on project visibility, not feature volume.

Real, shipped capability. Anything still in progress is labeled as such.

Shared workspaces

One company workspace, one version of the project.

Members, jobs, tasks, meetings, schedule information, progress, and reports all live in your organization. A solo user starts with a personal workspace that becomes a team environment the moment someone joins.

Multi-user collaboration

The whole team works in the same project.

Jobs, tasks, meetings, dates, progress, decisions, and action items synchronize across connected devices — no separate copies of the schedule to reconcile.

Conflict-safe editing

Built for shared project work without silent overwrites.

Edits to different parts of the same record are both preserved. When two people change the exact same field at once, PlumbLine detects the conflict instead of quietly discarding someone's work.

Live presence

See who else is in the job right now.

Small profile indicators next to the project name show which teammates are currently viewing the same job, so you're not duplicating or undoing each other's work.

Task scheduling

A construction sequence, not a Gantt chart hobby.

Create project tasks, put them in order, set planned dates, update as the job changes, and watch upcoming work. Tasks are shared across the organization.

Plan vs. actual

Compare the plan with what actually happened.

Record actual activity against planned dates, see schedule movement, and identify work running earlier or later than expected — building a clear project history as you go.

Target-date forecasting

See where the project is headed.

Current project information drives a forecast of likely target dates: whether you're gaining or losing time, and when future work should reasonably occur. A planning and early-warning tool, not a guarantee.

Daily Logs import

Bring documented field activity into the schedule.

Import compatible .xlsx or .csv exports from PlumbLine Daily Logs to compare scheduled work with what the field recorded — no duplicate entry.

Meeting Tracker

Turn meetings into accountable follow-up.

Document purpose, participants, decisions, changes, risks, verification needs, and an effectiveness score — with action items that can link to existing or newly created project tasks.

Professional PDF reports

Project and meeting reports, ready to send.

Schedule information, planned and actual progress, forecasts, status, decisions, action items, due dates, risks, and effectiveness scores — organized into clean documentation.

Team invitations

Bring a teammate into the workspace.

Enter their email, prepare the invitation, and they accept or decline — new or existing PlumbLine users. Invitations are prepared for the owner to send; automated delivery isn't live yet.

Secure accounts

Organization-based access control.

Email and password sign-in, session management, sign-out, and account deletion. Project information is protected by organization membership — no cross-organization access.

Professional reports

What you entered, organized into documentation.

Project reports carry schedule information, planned and actual progress, target-date forecasts, and status. Meeting reports carry participants, decisions, action items, due dates, risks, follow-up needs, and the effectiveness score.

Team invitations and management

Owners control who’s in the workspace.

Invite a teammate

Enter an email, prepare the invitation, and the recipient accepts or declines. Works for new and existing PlumbLine users. Invitation emails are prepared for the owner to send.

Review members

See everyone in the organization and remove a member when they move on. Member management is built and receiving final live-app verification.

Removal is clean

Removing someone ends their access to your organization. It does not delete their PlumbLine account, their access to other organizations, or the work attributed to them.

If an organization’s only owner deletes their account while members remain, the longest-tenured remaining member is promoted so the workspace is never left without an owner.

Built for residential construction

Between a spreadsheet and an enterprise platform.

More structured and collaborative than a spreadsheet. Simpler and more focused than a large construction-management suite. Priced for solo professionals and growing crews alike.
