Material & procurement scheduling

Order to the site's pace, not the calendar's.

A fixed procurement calendar goes stale the moment the build shifts - leaving idle stock on one line and a stalled trade on another. Buildflic times each order to the real construction schedule and re-times it whenever the site moves.

Rebar order timed to the plan, not the real slab pace

->Re-timed to actual pour date, no idle stock, no wait

How it works

Every order, anchored to a real task.

Lead time is only useful against a real date. Buildflic keeps that date current, so the order window is always the right one.

  1. 1

    Tie each material to the task that needs it

    Every order is linked to the work it feeds - rebar to the pour, fittings to the fit-out - so a delivery date is derived from a task, not guessed on a calendar.

  2. 2

    Work back from the real build date

    Buildflic takes the current projected start of that task and subtracts lead time, giving the latest safe order date against how the site is actually moving.

  3. 3

    Move the window when the site moves

    If the task shifts, the order window shifts with it. No ordering to a plan the site has already left behind, no idle stock, no scramble.

  4. 4

    Track the vendor through to delivery

    Once ordered, each line is tracked - confirmed, in transit, delivered - and any slip on the vendor's side is read straight back into the schedule.

Lead times are an estimate until the vendor confirms

Buildflic works from the lead times you set per material and per vendor. Those are planning estimates - a confirmed dispatch or a slip on the vendor's side updates the real delivery date, and the schedule reads that change straight through to the task waiting on it.

Stop ordering to a plan the site has left.
