Step 1

The Job Start-up Folder is where you will keep all of your documentation and information electronically for a project. It is important to save this in your “My Documents” or “Documents” folder to insure the office can back it up in case your computer happens to crash. Below is a step-by-step on how to do this, as well as a tutorial video.

*Make sure that your Mifi (internet) is turned on and you are connected before attempting to set up your new job folder.

Step 2

When you set up your job folder, it is the perfect time to also go into each of the documents to set up your project template . Take this opportunity to fill out any project information that you can ahead of time, which will then save you time later.

Templates that may be helpful to set up at the start of the project include:

– Daily Reports
– Short Interval Schedule
– Work Orders

Also gather any and all quality control checklists that relate to your job. This helps remind you to complete them when the time comes. Otherwise it can easily get forgotten when the job gets busy.

Step 3

Every person within a project team has an important role for the success of the project and company. If one of us is failing, then we are failing as a team. Working together and understanding all of the components is the best opportunity for the success of a project and the company. An interactive presentation is currently being developed and under construction. This will help in understanding the different roles and processes of the different departments within the company to get a better, overall understanding of the entire process.
