PLANNING

We use tools like Procore, Microsoft

Project, and Autodesk Construction Cloud to guide the

early stages of construction planning. These platforms

support enterprise-level oversight and real-time data

collaboration. Our planning process includes strategic

feasibility analysis, development of comprehensive

work breakdown structures (WBS), resource and

budget allocation, and thorough risk mitigation

strategies. We ensure full stakeholder alignment through

charrettes and focused planning workshops. Each planning

phase is approached with detailed foresight and teamwide involvement to set a strong foundation.

PROJECT ENGINEERING

Tusk relies on

Bluebeam Revu for handling digital markups, submittal

tracking, and RFIs. Our project engineering process

involves active coordination between design teams,

subcontractors, and field personnel. Regular design

coordination meetings and clash resolution sessions ensure

design intent aligns with constructability. Our workflows for

RFIs, shop drawings, and transmittals are structured for

speed and clarity. Procurement strategies are closely

integrated with construction sequencing, ensuring

materials and systems arrive on time and in the right order.

SCHEDULING

We utilize Procore and Microsoft

Project to develop and manage both baseline and

detailed schedules. Critical path methods (CPM), earned

value analysis, and resource leveling are all part of our

scheduling toolkit. Our team regularly produces two- and

six-week look-ahead schedules and updates the master

schedule weekly. These are reviewed collaboratively with

stakeholders to ensure alignment and adaptation to any

field conditions. Our schedules are deeply integrated with

field progress tracking tools for real-time status visibility.

ESTIMATING

Tusk’s preconstruction and estimating

teams use Bluebeam Revu for quantity takeoffs and digital

markups. We leverage historical cost data and market

benchmarks to deliver precise, competitive estimates. Each

estimate includes thorough quantity analysis, risk-based

contingency planning, and vendor/subcontractor pricing

integration. Estimates are tied into our ERP systems for

smooth conversion to budget and financial tracking.
