Look ahead
Bring upcoming work into a planning horizon where teams can test readiness.
LAST PLANNER SYSTEM SOFTWARE
Support Last Planner workflows with connected project data.
Jenasaro supports the core operational cycle commonly used with the Last Planner System: look ahead, make work ready, commit achievable tasks, record completion, measure plan reliability and learn from reasons for non-completion.
Move from what should happen to what can happen
Long-range schedules describe what the project intends to deliver. Collaborative short-term planning determines what work can realistically be executed. Jenasaro lets teams identify upcoming activities, expose constraints and make the responsible parties visible before those activities are committed.
That helps protect weekly and daily planning from avoidable promises that were never executable in the first place.
A connected commitment cycle
Make ready
Capture blockers, owners and required dates so work can be released deliberately.
Commit
Agree work with the teams responsible for delivering it and keep commitments visible.
Learn
Record completion and reasons for missed promises, then use PPC and trends to improve the next cycle.
Keep the short-term plan connected to the programme
A frequent weakness in production planning is that the collaborative plan and the formal programme become separate versions of reality. Jenasaro is designed to keep short-term commitments linked to schedule activities, locations, teams and milestones so teams can see both production reliability and programme implications.
The software supports the workflow; it does not replace the conversations, commitments and collaborative behaviours that make Last Planner effective.

ILLUSTRATIVE PROJECT SCENARIO
Example: review a week of trade commitments
- Review upcoming activities with the responsible trades and identify blocked work.
- Assign constraint owners and release dates before asking teams to commit.
- Record achievable commitments and review completion in the daily production plan.
- If eight of ten counted commitments are completed as promised, PPC is 80%. Review the reasons for the two misses before the next planning cycle.
Decision to make: Which recurring constraint should the team remove before making the next promise?
Questions from project teams
Does Jenasaro support digital Last Planner System workflows?
Yes. It connects lookahead planning, make-ready constraints, team commitments, completion reviews, PPC and reasons for non-completion to schedule activities.
Does PPC measure the percentage of the project built?
No. Percent Plan Complete measures the reliability of counted commitments. It should be reviewed alongside quantities, progress and milestone performance. See the PPC lesson.
Can a digital board replace the planning meeting?
The shared information supports the meeting. Teams still need to agree prerequisites, confirm capacity and make realistic commitments.
