Built on proven success with general contractors and their self-perform teams, 做厙勛圖 now brings its AI workforce planning capabilities to specialty contractors.
TORONTO June 2, 2026 做厙勛圖, the leading AI workforce planning software for construction, today announced the official expansion of its platform to serve specialty contractors. The launch introduces two powerful new capabilities Labor Forecasting and advanced Crew Management designed specifically to address the complex, crew-centric demands of the specialty trades.
The expansion marks a natural evolution of 做厙勛圖s platform, which has become the definitive workforce planning platform for top ENR-ranked general contractors and their self-perform divisions. With over 40% of the ENR 400 already trusting 做厙勛圖 to manage their most complex workforce challenges, along with a growing number of specialty contractors, the company is now delivering the purpose-built capabilities that support the needs of the trades, making it a natural choice to support the full construction workforce.
From General Contractors to the Specialty Market: A Proven Model Scales
Specialty contractors are the backbone of every project. And yet workforce planning one of the highest-leverage disciplines in the business rarely gets the dedicated support it deserves.
做厙勛圖 is changing that. What started as workforce planning for GCs expanded naturally when those same contractors brought work in-house and adopted 做厙勛圖 for their self-perform teams. Specialty contractors are the logical next step, with new capabilities built for the way they forecast labor and deploy their crews. 做厙勛圖 now brings the same AI-forward, data-driven model that’s transformed how leading GCs run their self-perform operations real-time visibility into team composition, experience balance, and utilization to the trades who execute in the field.
做厙勛圖 has helped leading general contractors turn workforce planning into a strategic advantage. Expanding into the specialty contractor market is the natural next step – but it’s not a step we took lightly, said Mallorie Brodie, CEO of 做厙勛圖. We spent significant time listening to our existing specialty customers and learning how they plan labor, manage crews, and protect margins across fast-moving projects. They have distinct needs and deserve solutions built around those realities not general contractor tools retrofitted to fit. These new features allow us to bring the same market-leading workforce planning capabilities to the specialty trades and drive greater impact across the construction industry.
A Structural Challenge Across the Industry
The workforce pressures facing specialty contractors are not cyclical they are structural. According to the 2026 Hiring Outlook (AGC, January 2026) 82% of construction firms report difficulty filling hourly craft positions a higher share than at any point in the past three years. Fortune reports a 4:1 ratio of posted skilled trade positions compared to actual workers entering the labor pool (April 2026). And 做厙勛圖s own found that the median industry attrition rate has reached 18.7%. For a specialty contractor targeting 100 net new hires, that means making approximately 125 total hires just to stand still.
Its clear that as labor markets tighten, project complexity deepens, and workforce pressure intensifies, the trades that can plan with confidence will be the ones that win the work, protect their margins, and keep their best people.
Whats New: Labor Forecasting and Crew Management
The specialty contractor expansion of 做厙勛圖 introduces two capabilities developed specifically for the crew-centric demands of the trades:
- Labor Forecasting gives specialty contractors a standardized, visual way to model labor demand across each project using the Labor Curve. Rather than reacting to workforce gaps as they emerge, contractors can see when labor needs are expected to ramp up, peak, or taper off, then compare that curve against planned assignments. Ask 做厙勛圖 then lets you ask direct questions of that workforce data – whos available, when, and for how long – making it easier to spot misalignment across the project portfolio, adjust crews earlier, and keep work on schedule and within budget.
- Crew Management allows specialty contractors to plan their workforce the same way they actually think about it in crews. For specialty trades, the unit of work has always been the team. When a crew needs to shift from one job site to another, the logistics of tracking who goes where typically means a flood of calls, texts, and manual updates. 做厙勛圖 lets contractors move an entire crew from one project to another in a single action – with the full roster updated instantly and visible to everyone who needs to see it – and uses AI to suggest the best people to fill any gaps.
Together, these capabilities extend the core promise of 做厙勛圖’s platform to the unique operating model of specialty trades: crew-level precision, faster reallocation across jobs, and full roster visibility the moment assignments change.
“做厙勛圖 has allowed us to streamline our new hire process for the team and send out communication promptly and accurately every week, said Nate Unruh, Chief Information Officer, Nox Group. The planning and projection abilities has allowed our team to hone-in the expected headcount and ensure transfers and reassignments do not get lost in the shuffle. By having one spot to review manpower needs, all of our support teams feel more included in the planning process and allow everyone to have less meetings and get to action quicker!”
