Efficiency in Work: The Key to Success Lies in Task Assignment

Efficiency in Work: The Key to Success Lies in Task Assignment

In the world of construction projects, time is money, and the efficiency of work is a key factor in the success of projects.

The importance of clear task assignment is highlighted when it comes to the time allocated for task completion. When a task is defined with a precise deadline and detailed instructions for its execution, a strong foundation for efficient work is established. This enables a realistic assessment of the total workload and duration of the project, which is valuable information for both management and the client.


As an example, consider two different ways of assigning the same task. Which one do you think can be completed more efficiently?


Example 1:


"Go and list the apartments on the third floor and send a WhatsApp message when it's done... How long will it take? Oh, and take some pictures. They should be done quickly, there's a lot of hurry, and we need to bill them."


Example 2:


You have 3 tasks for today, and you can review tasks one by one. Each task includes method instructions, a video demonstration, safety considerations, and a list of supplies. The task guides you to take pictures or videos of the completed work, and you can easily report any obstacles with the task. To start a task, press "Start Task," and you can indicate task completion by closing the task with the "Done" button. No need to notify separately; we track progress with the client in real-time.


Task 1: Installation of skirting boards in Apartment A10, totaling 80 meters. Time allocated: 3 hours. Task 2: Installation of skirting boards in Apartment A11, totaling 55 meters. Time allocated: 2 hours. Task 3: Installation of skirting boards in Apartment A12, totaling 72 meters. Time allocated: 2 hours and 45 minutes.


If you complete today's tasks, you can pick up additional work and earn more today. Each task specifies the allocated time, from which you can see the amount of additional earnings.


Urakka.app enables the creation of such work tasks effortlessly and also provides automation for large work sites.


What if we could accurately predict the success of a project in real-time? This is not a utopia but a possibility when we monitor contracts at the task level. By examining the time spent relative to the target time, we gain an understanding of where we stand and what is needed for the success of the project. This dynamic monitoring allows for quick course corrections and enhances project management.


The efficiency of a contract is not only measured by the speed of individual task completion but also by how smoothly and flexibly different phases are linked together. When the completion of tasks and the subsequent release of the site are managed through automation, the flow of information between contractors can be significantly accelerated. This automated process not only reduces delays but also facilitates the daily work and planning of both supervisors—both masters and subcontractors.

Urakka.app provides a solution precisely for this need. It allows tasks to be scheduled and closely monitored, ensuring timely completion of tasks and automatically informing the next group of the site's availability. This promotes transparency, enhances resource utilization, and improves overall project efficiency.


The era of efficient work in the construction industry requires a change in mindset—the foundation of which lies in detailed and thoughtful task assignment. Efficiency in work is not accidental but a consequence of careful planning and the utilization of modern technology. Tools like Urakka.app are crucial in this development, enabling smoother projects and happier employees.
