Keeping a construction site productive requires constant logistical planning. Logistical shortcomings lead to:
In a construction environment with limited materials-handling equipment and small site footprints, careful planning for the operation of equipment is needed for efficient logistics management on site.
Job Site Resourcing (JSR) is a scheduling tool that helps optimize the delivery of materials and the booking of cranes, elevators and staging areas. It ultimately helps site personnel manage materials and equipment movement scheduling to eliminate idle times or bottlenecks for shared job site resources.
The trades jumped on board quickly and now our site deliveries are running completely through online requests.
Superintendents gain the ability to approve deliveries with documented comments, putting the responsibility of the trades to manage their own deliveries.
This is such a fantastic tool which will bring value to any PCL job site.

The JSR delivery board system is a must-have for large-scale jobs that have several types of resources that consistently have an intense amount of deliveries arriving to site hourly.
This system enables the shipping and receiving team to be much more efficient and organized which is critical for a successful project.

You can quickly login to the specific project site to book a delivery/pick up, click on the calendar, and review available delivery slots. As long as the trade partner, shipper, or receiver has an email, they can book on their own and at anytime.
JSR cuts down on the cost of having a full-time shipper/receiver book dates and times, and provides prebooking for deliveries with long lead times. JSR has saved us thousands of dollars and worker hours.
