The Secret Weapon for Finishing Projects on Time

Most schedules fail not because of poor planning, but because they forget one crucial ingredient: buffers. In this episode of the Elevate Construction Podcast, we break down why no schedule is complete without them and how to use them the right way.

You'll learn:

· The different types of buffers (end, sequence, wagon, takt time, procurement, and more)

· How to run a simple risk analysis to size your buffers correctly

· Why 50–75% of your project buffer should sit at the end not scattered everywhere

· How buffers absorb delays without pushing your project into chaos

If you've ever struggled with blown deadlines, trade stacking, or procurement delays, this episode will change how you think about planning forever.
