Friday’s pack is due. The floor you walked last week and the floor you walk today are the report.

The construction progress report is the document due this week. The client wants to know what got built. The usual pack is a PDF written from WhatsApp photos and a walk the project manager half remembers. The photos do not line up with last week.

Daily report template construction

A daily report template construction teams reuse is the short list below: two dates, what changed, one owner per open item, and the link to both walks. The daily note points at the site diary. This page is the weekly pack.

Construction progress report template

Keep the template to what a client can check:

That is the template. A longer narrative is optional. The walks are not.

How to write a construction progress report

  1. Walk the site on the helmet camera and pin the route to the floor plan.
  2. Walk the same route on the next reporting date.
  3. Open the two dates together. SpatialSense drafts a written list of what changed.
  4. A person checks the list, cuts what is wrong, and sends the report.

The daily book is separate. That is the site diary, which US teams often call a construction daily report. Do not merge the daily note and the weekly pack into one page or one file.

This page is the report. Construction progress tracking is the wider record of dated walks. Use the report when you owe someone the pack.

What the report will not claim

It will not tell you the job is 40% done. It will not forecast the programme. It will not replace the payment certificate. If money is the argument, attach the same walks to the variation order.

Frequently asked questions

What is a construction progress report?

A construction progress report is the pack a project manager sends the client, usually each week. It says what was done, what slipped, and what the site looks like now. SpatialSense builds that pack from two dated walks, which a person reviews before sending.

Is there a construction progress report template?

The useful template is short: the two dates, what changed between them, the open issues with owners, and the link to the walks. A blank Word template does not show the floor.

How do you write a construction progress report?

Walk the site. Walk it again on a later date. Compare the same spots. Review the written change list. Send that, with the walks, instead of rebuilding the pack from chat photos.

Does the report give a percent complete?

No. SpatialSense does not calculate percent complete against a programme. It shows what the site looked like on two dates and lists what changed. A person decides what that means for the report.
