A two-week lookahead lists the work coming up in the next two weeks so crews and suppliers can get ready. Brena builds it from your board, flags the risks, and tells you what to prepare.
Generate the lookahead
Open your project and click the orange Brena icon in the header.
Type Generate a 2 week lookahead and press Enter.
Brena reads the tasks on your board and builds the lookahead for the next two weeks, starting today.
What Brena gives you
The work in the window: a table of each task's dates, crew and status.
Risks to watch, for example tasks with no slack, back-ordered materials, or steps that must happen in a certain order for safety.
What to prepare, for example a walkthrough or the materials a crew needs on day one.
Gaps, such as tasks with no named lead.
Brena also saves a draft of lookahead tasks. If your board already covers the window, Brena may recommend not committing the draft, because it would create duplicates. Read its recommendation before you commit.
Add tasks from the lookahead
To add the draft tasks, type commit these tasks. To add just one useful task, ask for it directly, for example "Add the thermal scan as a 1-day task on Monday before lockout." See Reviewing and Committing Brena's Drafts.
Check the weather
Brena can check the forecast for outdoor work if it knows where the site is. Tell Brena the site location, for example "The site is in Austin, TX. Check the weather for the exterior work."
