Arlington Commons Phase 2 Multifamily Construction Scheduling

Overview:

At Precision Scheduling Consultants LLC, we proudly provided critical path method (CPM) scheduling services for the Arlington Commons Phase II development, known as The Truman. Through detailed planning, proactive updates, and continuous collaboration, we helped ensure project milestones were met efficiently and effectively.

Arlington Commons Phase II is a $44 million multi-family development situated in a vibrant area of Arlington, Texas. This impressive project features four stories with 358 modern residential units, a resort-style pool, and expansive amenities. Because the development is located just seven minutes from AT&T Stadium and ten minutes from Six Flags Over Texas, timely delivery was critical to meet the city’s growing demand for premium housing. Thus, our specialized expertise in multifamily construction scheduling became a key asset to the project team’s success.

Our Role and Responsibilities Multifamily Construction Scheduling

Precision Scheduling Consultants delivered comprehensive CPM scheduling services throughout the project’s life cycle. Precision did not develop the initial baseline schedule but was contracted to correct the initial schedule, or to develop the re-baseline schedule. First, we developed a detailed re-baseline schedule incorporating full cost loading to align with project budgets and resource plans. This re-baseline served as the new roadmap, ensuring that all stakeholders had a clear view of progress expectations. Next, we managed monthly schedule updates, maintaining cost loading to accurately track earned value and forecast resource needs. Because of our commitment to collaboration, we worked closely with the project managers, superintendents, and subcontractors to address any evolving scheduling challenges. Moreover, we continuously monitored critical paths, adjusted sequencing when necessary, and maintained a focus on timely, informed decision-making. Through these efforts, we provided leadership in project controls that strengthened communication, improved accountability, and minimized disruptions.

Challenges and Solutions

Although construction progressed steadily, several obstacles demanded strategic schedule management. For example, material procurement delays impacted the installation timelines for key amenity features. Therefore, we revised activity sequences to keep interior construction on schedule while awaiting deliveries. Additionally, maintaining coordination between numerous subcontractors across a dense worksite proved challenging. Consequently, we implemented detailed short-term look-ahead schedules to prevent conflicts and streamline resource deployment. Furthermore, extreme weather events occasionally disrupted site activities. Because of strong planning practices, we quickly developed recovery schedules to protect critical milestones. By proactively addressing these issues, we minimized impacts and preserved overall project momentum.

Results

Ultimately, the Truman at Arlington Commons Phase II achieved substantial completion within targeted deadlines and quality expectations.

Through our expert multifamily construction scheduling services, the project successfully delivered:

• 358 beautifully designed apartment homes
• A stunning resort-style pool and luxurious amenity spaces
• Improved residential options in a fast-growing Arlington community

Moreover, ownership praised the project team’s communication, transparency, and professionalism throughout construction.

Importance of Project Controls in Multifamily Construction

Project controls, planning, and scheduling are essential elements in completing multifamily developments on time and within budget. Effective project controls allow teams to monitor performance, identify risks early, and apply corrective actions quickly. Planning creates a clear roadmap detailing task dependencies, timelines, and resource requirements, improving communication across project stakeholders. Scheduling, particularly CPM scheduling, tracks progress and milestone achievement, minimizing delays and optimizing resource management. Together, these practices ensure greater project efficiency, better collaboration, and superior quality outcomes that enhance client satisfaction.
