RN Project Planning — for interior designers

Know what needs your attention now — before it delays the project.

On an interior project, the construction schedule tells you when the work happens. RN Project Planning is being built to connect those dates to the decisions, approvals and actions that need to happen before them — so you can see what needs your attention now.

The part that isn’t on the schedule

The construction schedule shows when the work happens. Your deadlines come earlier.

It tells you when the electrician starts, when the tiles go down, when the millwork arrives. It doesn’t tell you when those decisions actually needed to be made.

  1. Start design & selection
  2. Options presented
  3. Final client approval
  4. Order placed
  5. Delivered & checked
  6. Installation

Those deadlines rarely live in one place. They’re spread across the schedule, your inbox, meeting notes, supplier emails, client conversations — and your head.

Planning shouldn’t take more time than it saves.

Projects change constantly. Dates move, lead times shift and decisions stay open. If keeping the planning current becomes a second job, the system isn’t helping.

RN Project Planning is being built around the opposite idea: a small amount of input should give you a clearer view of what matters next. Connect an action to the date or dependency behind it, and let that connection keep working as the project moves.

Less administration. Clearer priorities.

What the date doesn’t tell you

Knowing the deadline isn’t enough. You need to know what it means now.

  • Electrical work starts next month

    Is the lighting and smart-home information the electrician needs actually ready?

  • The tiler can start two weeks earlier

    Can the tiles arrive earlier, are they ordered, and who needs to know?

  • A supplier’s lead time changes from 5 to 10 weeks

    Which other deadlines or decisions does that affect?

  • Client approval is still open

    Are you waiting on the client, or is the client waiting on you?

Small decisions now become construction delays later.

Product direction · Concept preview

Open your project on Monday and know where to start.

Not just what needs attention — but why it matters now. Every priority stays connected to the date or dependency behind it.

Less time reconstructing the project in your head. More time staying ahead of it.
