AI Job PlanningPlanning Jobs Is the Most Undervalued Skill in the Trades
Good tradesmen know the work. But planning a project — scheduling phases, ordering materials in sequence, estimating timelines — takes experience most never get taught.
- ✕No formal training in project planning for most tradesmen
- ✕Material ordering mistakes cause delays and extra costs
- ✕Underestimating timelines damages customer relationships
- ✕Juggling multiple jobs without a clear plan leads to chaos
