AGC Edge: Field Logistics and Workflow Planning Workshop

Description

About the Course
On every construction project, field performance depends on how well people, materials, equipment, and work areas are organized. This workshop focuses specifically on jobsite logistics and workflow planning—how to set up the site, sequence work, and improve crew and material movement to reduce delays and wasted effort.

The 4-hour Field Logistics and Workflow Planning Workshop is a tactical, application-based session designed to help participants improve coordination at the project level. Rather than covering productivity as a broad management topic, this workshop zeroes in on site layout, material staging, crew flow, handoff points, and simple field-planning practices that support smoother daily operations.

Through discussion, real-world scenarios, and small group activities, participants will apply practical tools they can use right away to improve site coordination, reduce workflow interruptions, and support more efficient execution in the field. Each attendee will leave with ideas and next steps they can adapt to their own project environment.

Workshop Outcomes:

• Identify jobsite logistics factors that affect workflow, access, and coordination
• Map material movement, staging, and crew flow to reduce bottlenecks and delays
• Recognize common field coordination issues that create wasted motion and rework
• Use simple planning tools to improve daily execution and site organization
• Develop practical next steps to strengthen logistics planning on active projects
• Who should attend: This workshop is best suited for superintendents, project managers, forepersons, field engineers, and others responsible for coordinating jobsite setup, material flow, work sequencing, and day-to-day field execution. It is especially useful for teams looking for practical ways to improve site organization and workflow.
