About This Automation

Project scheduling and trade coordination involves receiving booking requests, checking availability across multiple spreadsheets, and manually confirming dates with trades and site managers.

Automation checks trade and site availability in real time, detects conflicts before confirmation, and sends notifications automatically to all parties. The result is faster bookings, zero conflicts, and coordinators freed from repetitive calendar work.

Key features
Check trade availability and site readiness instantly across all calendars and schedules
Detect scheduling conflicts before sending confirmations to prevent rework
Send automated booking confirmations and notifications to trades, site managers, and dependent teams
Suggest alternative dates when preferred slots are unavailable
Track confirmation responses and flag non-responses for manual follow-up
Update the master schedule and project records automatically after confirmation

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New booking request receivedtrigger

A booking request arrives via email or form submission. The automation captures the trade type, preferred dates, and site details.

2. Check trade and site availability

The automation queries the trade's calendar and site schedule to detect conflicts and confirm availability in real time.

3. Detect scheduling conflicts

If a conflict is found, the automation flags it and suggests alternative dates based on both the trade and site calendars.

4. Send confirmation to trade

The automation sends a confirmation email with the final date, time, site address, and any site-specific instructions.

5. Notify site manager and other trades

The automation sends notifications to the site manager and any dependent trades, including a shared calendar invite.

6. Update master schedule and CRM

The automation updates the master schedule and logs the booking with all relevant details.

7. Send alert to coordinator

The automation sends a notification to the coordinator confirming the booking is complete and flagging any manual review needed.
