How to use it on paper
Print one copy for each job and keep it with the drawings or work order. Write the owner or initials beside each step. During the daily huddle, circle the next work that can move and record anything holding the job.
How to use it in Turnboards
Create a board named for the customer job, add the relevant checklist lines as work items, and move today's steps into Active. Assign the current step to the person doing the work and place dimensions or finish details in its notes.
- Do not copy steps that do not apply
- Keep each item short enough to scan
- Use Complete only after the handoff is verified
What Turnboards does—and does not do
Turnboards is a fast shared work list with boards, assignments, notes, due dates, offline updates, and Backlog, Active, and Complete statuses. It does not provide automated recurring checklists, photo-proof reports, invoicing, employee scheduling, GPS tracking, or formal inspection records.
