Because Even the Best Crews Need a Game Plan

If you've ever written a to-do list on the back of a lumber receipt or tried to track project progress via group text... you already know the struggle. 🧠💥

That’s why Structur’s task system was built to help you ditch the chaos and keep your projects—and people—on track. Think of it as a digital whiteboard that doesn’t smudge and never gets left behind in the trailer.

Let’s break it down.

🧱 Tasks = Your To-Dos, Upgraded

A task in Structur isn’t just a note that says “Call the plumber.” It’s a fully loaded mini-command center. You can:

• Assign team members

• Set due dates and priorities

• Attach files and photos

• Drop comments and updates

• Link it to a project or schedule item

• Even make it private or recurring

From “Frame the second floor” to “Send final invoice,” Structur tasks scale with your job site needs.

🗂️ Boards: Your Digital Job Site Walls

Boards are how you organize all your tasks. Each board works like a Kanban board (think Trello or sticky notes on steroids). Columns = stages. Cards = tasks.

Create boards for anything:

• A specific project

• A department (like “Marketing” or “Accounting”)

• A process (like “Onboarding” or “Bid Review”)

You can even save boards as templates so you’re not rebuilding the wheel for every job.

🚦Stages: Your Progress Tracker

Each board has stages—these are the columns that represent where a task is in its life cycle. For example:

• To Do

• In Progress

• Waiting on Subcontractor

• Ready for Review

• Done

Need something custom like “Waiting on Paint to Dry”? Go for it. Stages are 100% customizable per board.

Move tasks from stage to stage just by dragging and dropping. It’s fast. It’s visual. It’s we’re-actually-organized-for-once satisfying.

🛠️ Task Templates: Your Shortcut to Efficiency

Tired of retyping “Send lien waiver email” every Friday?

Use task templates.

• Pre-fill task name, details, priority, etc.

• Assign to specific users

• Use for recurring processes like closeouts, equipment checks, or daily reports

Templates save time and prevent mistakes. (Like forgetting to attach the invoice… again.)

🕵️‍♂️ Views and Filters: See What Matters

Switch between:

• ✅ Board View (Kanban-style)

• 📋 List View (great for scanning)

• 📅 Calendar View (deadline-focused)

And use filters to sort tasks by:

• Project or lead

• Priority

• Status

• Assigned team member

Your crew sees only what they need to see. You? You see everything. Like a construction site wizard. 🧙‍♂️

🔧 Real-World Use Case

Let’s say you’re managing a kitchen remodel.
You’ve got a task board called "Smith Remodel – Tasks", with stages like:
“To Do,” “In Progress,” “Waiting on Materials,” and “Done.”
You create a task for “Install Cabinets,” assign it to your carpenter, link it to the Smith Project, set the due date for next Friday, and boom—you’re managing like a boss.
As updates roll in, the task moves across the board until it's done and off your plate.

Why It Matters

Your team can’t read your mind. Your schedule’s packed. And you can’t afford to miss critical steps.

Structur tasks, boards, and stages keep you:

✅ Organized
✅ Transparent
✅ Accountable
✅ On track

And maybe, just maybe... you’ll finally stop scribbling to-dos on your lunch napkin.
