Now You Can See Exactly Which Jobs Are Driving Your Workforce Labor Plans

In construction, guesswork is expensive. Overstaffing, missed bids, last-minute reassignments—it all adds up. That’s why contractors use RIVET’s Labor Demand Dashboard to visualize workforce needs across active and upcoming projects.

But until now, there was one missing piece: what jobs are actually driving those labor numbers?

We’re excited to introduce Labor Demand Chart Details, a powerful new feature that takes the guesswork out of workforce planning by letting you drill into the job-level breakdown behind your labor forecasts—week by week, category by category.

Zoom In: See the Jobs Behind the Data

With just a click, you can now see exactly which projects are contributing to your labor demand in any given week. Whether you’re viewing forecasted, scheduled, or requested labor, Chart Details shows:

  • Active jobs with assigned crews
  • Forecasted jobs still in planning
  • Open labor requests not yet filled

Plus, each row is broken out by labor type so you know how and where your people are being planned—and what gaps might exist.

This is real-time clarity for every project stakeholder:

  • Estimators planning for backlog
  • Ops leaders balancing labor across groups
  • Execs checking on resource utilization

Workforce Scenario Planning—Now in Real Time

No more switching tabs or digging through spreadsheets to understand labor flow. Need to see how shifting a project timeline affects your labor plan? With Chart Details, you can toggle between weeks and instantly assess the impact—all from one screen.

Scenario planning is now interactive, fast, and accurate. That’s a game-changer for:

  • Group managers allocating labor across jobsites
  • Project managers optimizing team deployments
  • Business unit leaders focused on margin protection

From Reactive to Strategic Workforce Planning

RIVET’s Labor Demand Chart Details isn’t just a visibility tool—it’s a decision-making weapon. By connecting high-level labor summaries to job-level details, you can:

  • Identify staffing conflicts early
  • Balance backlog with workforce capacity
  • Keep projects on time—and on budget

In a labor market this tight, better visibility means better business. And that’s exactly what RIVET delivers.
