What is a construction project's schedule?

In construction management, a construction project's schedule outlines each step that should be completed by a specific date before the next step can be taken.

A successful schedule ensures that project steps are completed in a timely manner and in a way that minimizes delay. Generally, a project manager maintains the schedule, and a superintendent verifies if the subcontractors and all responsible parties show up for work at the time they are assigned.
