CONSTRUCTION REPORTS:

LABOR TIME SPENT:

A CONSTRUCTION REPORT IS PRETTY MUCH EXACTLY AS IT SOUNDS.
IT'S A DOCUMENT THAT REPORTS THE DAILY ACTIVITIES ON A
PROJECT AND IS CONSIDERED BY MANY AS ONE OF THE MORE IMPORTANT
ASPECTS OF SUCCESSFUL PROJECT MANAGEMENT. WHILE THE TERMS AND
RESPONSIBILITIES OUTLINED IN THE PROJECT CONTRACT ARE OF
PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE, THE DAILY REPORTS ARE A WAY TO
SUPPLEMENT THE CONTRACT BY VERIFYING AND DOCUMENTING THE
PROGRESS.
CONSTRUCTION REPORTS EXPLAIN THE DETAILS OF THE SITE AND THE
JOB WHILE PROVIDING A RECORD TO HELP KEEP SUBS AND
STAKEHOLDERS INFORMED. THEY ALLOW EVERYONE TO KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED ON THE JOB SITE, AND THE PROJECT'S CURRENT “HEALTH
STATUS.” PLUS, ANYTIME A DELAY OCCURS, A DAILY REPORT WILL
DOCUMENT THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT CAUSED IT - SO THERE'S LESS
ROOM FOR ARGUING BACK AND FORTH OVER THE DETAILS OF WHAT
HAPPENED.
WHAT INFORMATION SHOULD A DAILY CONSTRUCTION REPORT INCLUDE?
A SOLID, COMPREHENSIVE DAILY REPORT WILL INCLUDE ANY AND ALL
PERTINENT INFORMATION COLLECTED AT THE END OF EACH WORKDAY.
THIS MAY INCLUDE:
PROJECT INFORMATION:
THE PROJECT NAME AND NUMBER, ADDRESS, REPORT DATE AND AUTHOR,
ETC. ADDING THIS INFORMATION HELPS MANAGERS, CUSTOMERS, AND
OTHER PARTIES IMMEDIATELY SEE WHICH PROJECT GOES WITH WHICH
REPORT. IT'LL ALSO HELP WHEN YOU NEED TO LOOK UP AN OLD
REPORT IN YOUR ARCHIVE.
THE WORKERS ON SITE, THE NUMBER OF HOURS THEY WORKED, AND
WHAT THEY DID.
EQUIPMENT USED AND RECEIVED:
WHICH MAJOR MATERIALS WERE USED OR RECEIVED, AND WHICH
WEREN'T RECEIVED (AND ARE CAUSING DELAYS).
TASKS IN PROGRESS AND TASKS COMPLETED:
WHICH TASKS ARE IN PROGRESS (E.G. SLAB POURING 70% COMPLETE)
AND WHICH TASKS ARE DONE (AND CAN BE DOCUMENTED WITH PHOTOS).
POTENTIAL RISKS, ISSUES, DELAYS:
ANYTHING WORTH NOTING, PLUS AREAS WHERE MANAGERS OR THE
CUSTOMER COULD INTERVENE (E.G. A DELAY OF ANOTHER CONTRACTOR
THAT PREVENTS YOU FROM STARTING YOUR PORTION). DON'T FORGET
TO INCLUDE PHOTOS SO EVERYONE CAN SEE THE EXACT ISSUE.
SAFETY OBSERVATIONS AND ACCIDENTS:
ALL SAFETY RISKS AND OBSERVATIONS, AGAIN WITH PHOTOS. (WHEN
ACCIDENTS HAPPEN, THE DAILY REPORT CAN PROTECT YOU FROM
LITIGATION.) IN THE CASE OF ACCIDENTS, RECORD WHO WAS
INVOLVED, WHEN AND WHERE IT OCCURRED, HOW IT IMPACTED THE
WORK, AND ANY

WEATHER CONDITIONS:
CHANGES TO THE WEATHER, SUCH AS RAIN, SNOW, OR INTENSE SUN,
CAN CAUSE DELAYS (E.G. WHEN POURING CONCRETE SLABS), IMPACT
WORKER EFFICIENCY, AND INCREASE THE POTENTIAL FOR ACCIDENTS.
