McCormick Place, Chicago, September 13, 2025
MOCA Systems will debut Precision Time Planning for its Touchplan platform, introducing minute-level scheduling and built-in shift management to improve field planning and crew coordination. The capability lets teams plan and sequence tasks from weeks down to minutes, support short-duration and repetitive activities, and reassign crews within a day without sacrificing higher-level views. A public demonstration will be held at the NECA Show in Chicago ahead of a rolling commercial release to all Touchplan customers in the first quarter of next year. The feature aims to reduce bottlenecks, improve sequencing accuracy, and streamline collaboration between office and field teams.
MOCA Systems, Inc. will show a new capability for its construction planning platform Touchplan at the National Electrical Contractors Association event in Chicago this September. The feature, named Precision Time Planning, brings minute-level scheduling and built-in shift management to the platform and is scheduled to roll out to all Touchplan customers in the first quarter of 2026.
The new capability gives teams the flexibility to plan, sequence, and coordinate work at multiple time scales — from weeks and days down to hours and minutes. It is designed to let contractors organize shift work, manage crew headcounts across shifts, and handle short-duration or repetitive tasks without relying on guesswork. The tool also aims to help teams spot bottlenecks earlier so delays and cost impacts can be reduced.
Precision Time Planning will be displayed for the first time at the NECA Show, scheduled for September 12–15, 2025, at McCormick Place in Chicago. Touchplan representatives will be on hand at Booth #1615 to demonstrate how minute-level sequencing and shift views work in real time.
The addition aims to preserve Touchplan’s familiar interface while adding more precise control. Users can switch smoothly between broader daily planning and detailed minute-level views of work in progress. The feature supports managing crews and headcount across different shifts and helps sequence tasks that take only part of a day. The goal is to make advanced planning accessible to everyone involved in a project, from executives to field crews, and to reduce schedule slippage and budget risk by providing clearer, real-time insights.
MOCA Systems, Inc. is a services and software provider for the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. The company positions Touchplan as its main planning and analytics product, describing it as a cloud-based, real-time platform built on the collaborative framework of the Last Planner System®. The product is reported to be used by many large contractors and specialty firms, and to support production planning and analytics across complex projects.
Precision Time Planning will be made available to all Touchplan customers in Q1 2026. Attendees at the NECA Show will be able to see live demonstrations at Booth #1615 and evaluate how the minute-level sequencing fits into existing workflows.
Early user feedback included praise for the ability to schedule activities that last only part of a day and then reassign crew resources quickly. Those using the platform expect the new capability to improve daily planning, increase confidence in schedules, and keep projects moving more smoothly with less manual coordination.
