A focused operations platform for concrete teams, not estimating or job costing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Planning Ops is cloud-based operations software for concrete subcontractors and field teams. It brings together pour scheduling, crew and labor planning, phase-based project schedules, time tracking, certification tracking, daily reports, and time-and-materials workflows. Browser access is supported alongside iPhone and iPad apps, making the product relevant to teams coordinating office planning with field reporting.
Pricing is straightforward, with one platform plan offered monthly at $149 or annually at $1,639. Both billing options include all modules, three working seats, unlimited free read-only viewers, and unlimited projects and offices. The annual option includes one month free versus monthly billing. A 14-day trial is available, and a valid payment method is required. The platform connects with payroll and accounting systems including ADP RUN, ADP Workforce Now, Paychex Flex, QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Gusto, Paylocity, Sage 100 Contractor, Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Vista, and Foundation Software.
Its strongest area is concrete operations planning. Pour schedules include one-click confirmation, rescheduling, and cancellation notifications, while live weather and crew or equipment conflict alerts support coordination. A 90-day pour lookahead, pour map with truck routes, 52-week crew board, manpower gap analysis, payroll export presets, and certification expiry alerts extend that operational focus. Signed, numbered daily reports can include photos, safety details, delays, and exports; T&M tickets support quantities, signatures, PDFs, and email workflows. Choose Planning Ops when scheduling, crews, and field documentation are the priority. Companies seeking estimating, bidding, or job costing should choose a product that includes those functions.
