There are two problems I see in my role as a project scheduler. 1. The slinky effect 2. Out of sequence work The slinky effect happens when subcontractors dont have the runway prior to starting their scope of work. If they start too soon or have more manpower than the sub before them, they will catch up and pull off the site. This causes huge delays. Once a subcontractor pulls off site, they usually find new work. This means it can take weeks to get them back on site. I have seen projects that will rush subs on site every time there is a little bit of work. They come, they catch up, they leave. This is a nightmare for schedulers. Once they are onsite, keep them onsite. Find the right flow Out of sequence work just creates a higher risk of rework. There is a sequence for a reason. I have seen projects that encounter a problem and just overstep the problem by continuing the work. The thought is that they will fix it later. More often than not, this just adds time to the schedule. Trying to get subs to keep forward momentum and come back and rework areas is hard. It can be done, but is not recommended. The best projects create a substantial amount of runway and solve problems as they come.

#HousingCommunitySummit: Chaired by Mike Turner, Cardo Group, we hear some examples of good practice around repairs and maintenance, building on the guidelines from The Better Social Housing Review. Kirsty Peake & Michael Kavanagh from Bolton at Home talk about their young person scrutiny panel and workshops as a key way to understanding and responding to challenges around communication resulting in a multilingual website portal, more flexible appointment scheduling, plainer language and more structured communications. Chris Holloway (CIHCM), Executive Director at Greatwell Homes, talked about out an ‘atomic improvement’ approach to voids maintenance, leading to better outcomes both for the business and for customers. These incremental improvements - lead by increased tenant consultation- resulted in higher tenant satisfaction and cost savings   Stephen Hall, Global Head of Solutions (Senior Director) at Plentific, rightly highlights that communication is key throughout the process, exploring briefly how Plentific provide an innovative solution to vastly improve tenant communications and bring down repairs times and costs. One key takeaway from this session? EVERY interaction with a tenant is an opportunity to help them. #ukhousing #socialhousing #tenantengagement
