How do I sequence trades in industrial construction?

Start by mapping out the project scope and timelines. Identify dependencies between trades, like electrical needing framing done first. Always allow buffer time for delays. Regularly update your schedule based on site progress and communicate changes with all trades involved.

In industrial construction, you need to keep an eye on the big picture. Break the project into phases and understand which trades rely on each other. For instance, plumbing needs to be in before the wall lining goes up. Regular catch-ups can help keep everyone aligned and on track.
