End-of-Week Review & Progress Walks for Home Builder

The End-of-Week Review & Progress Walks workflow helps home builders and remodelers maintain visibility and control over active projects. It includes walking job sites, reviewing progress against schedules, inspecting quality, and documenting updates for clients and teams. By standardizing this process, builders identify issues early, reduce rework, and protect profitability. Clients benefit from transparency and confidence that milestones are being met. Teams gain accountability through documented reviews and feedback. With this workflow in place, home builders can improve scheduling accuracy, strengthen professionalism, and deliver projects more reliably by ensuring consistent communication and quality control at the end of every week.
