This is only one of the many things that TaskMaster Scheduling can do for you. It's an easy-to-use Critical Path Management (CPM) scheduling system that fully integrates with all your estimating, vendor, equipment and employee information.

In construction, the one certainty is that the schedule will change. With Sage Master Builder, maintaining your schedule is made easy with a full graphic interface for every task. You can move tasks, stretch them, set exception days, and create predecessor relations. The system maintains the original schedule and helps you document every change so that you can control float and avoid liquidated damages. You can also create time constraints that will warn you when tasks are going to extend beyond your predefined limits. You can even manage your time across multiple projects by viewing a schedule of all your jobs. Best of all, you can keep all project information easily accessible with the Project Work Center.

You can produce a Gantt chart for your sales presentation and notices to subcontractors formatted for your window envelopes. Because TaskMaster Scheduling is part of Sage Master Builder's integrated system, assigning equipment, employees, vendors and subcontractors to tasks makes it easy to generate essential notices and reports. New features allow you to connect jobs together when the same resources are used.
