# AI for concrete contractors: check the confirmations before the pour

The crew is scheduled for the morning, but the supplier's revised arrival window is in a separate email. The site lead has not yet confirmed access for the delivery. Those records need to agree before the office promises the sequence.
Use AI to compare the supplier window with the crew plan and site confirmations. The coordinator gets a list of timing conflicts to resolve; the responsible professionals decide technical readiness and whether the work proceeds.

## Illustrative example (fictional)

The owner's request: Do the crew time and supplier window match for tomorrow?

Information provided:
- Fictional job C-4: crew sheet says 08:00.
- Supplier update gives a 10:00-11:00 arrival window; the site lead has not acknowledged it.

Example result: The crew sheet and supplier update differ. The site lead's response is missing, so the records do not establish an agreed sequence.

The next step: The coordinator resolves the timing with the supplier and site lead.

## Align the confirmed times

List the current supplier window, crew arrangement and site contact for the specific job. Preserve the source of a changed time rather than overwrite the earlier commitment without a trace. Where the records conflict, prepare a targeted question for the coordinator.


## Keep site readiness with its owner

Compare the job's pre-pour checklist with the confirmations received so far. Show the person responsible for each check, the recorded result and what still needs the site lead's decision before the coordinator confirms the sequence.


## Record a changed plan

If a dependency changes, identify the affected delivery, crew and customer commitments. Prepare a revised coordination note with the new version and outstanding confirmations. Avoid marking a cancellation or new delivery as accepted until the relevant party has responded.


## Work you can get help with

Illustrative scenario using sample information.

### Align the confirmed times

What you provide: Supplier confirmation, crew arrangement and dated schedule changes.
The useful result: A timing comparison showing conflicts and unconfirmed entries.
When the task is complete: The coordinator records a mutually confirmed plan.

### Keep site readiness with its owner

What you provide: Job checklist, readiness decisions and responsible people.
The useful result: A coordination list separating checked conditions from missing decisions.
When the task is complete: The site lead explicitly records the readiness decision.

### Record a changed plan

What you provide: Changed dependency, affected bookings and response records.
The useful result: A revised plan with each party's confirmation status.
When the task is complete: The coordinator checks the final arrangements and communicates the approved version.

## Questions you may have

### Does a complete checklist authorise a pour?

No. The responsible site and technical personnel make that decision. The checklist helps them see which confirmations are recorded.

### Can the assistant select a mix or curing method?

Those technical decisions are outside this administrative workflow.
