Daily Progress Report Generator

Turns site inputs — work quantities, labor, equipment and weather — into a structured daily progress report exported to Excel or plain text.

Data & AnalyticsIntermediate★ 270⑂ 68AI score 7/10Last updated: Feb 14, 2026

What it does

  • Builds a daily report header with project name/number, date, weather condition, high/low temperature and preparer.
  • Auto-classifies each work activity as completed, in progress, delayed or not started by comparing planned vs. actual quantities.
  • Logs labor by trade and subcontractor (workers, regular hours, overtime) and equipment (hours used, status, operator).
  • Computes summary metrics: total workers, total man-hours, overtime, equipment hours, safety incidents, delivery count.
  • Exports a multi-sheet Excel workbook (Summary / Work Activities / Labor / Equipment) or a text report ready to paste into email.

Who it's for

  • Site managers and field engineers writing daily reports by hand
  • Construction managers consolidating multi-subcontractor labor and plant usage
  • PMO/data folks automating construction reporting with Python

Examples

  1. "Poured 150 m³ slab on Level 3 Zone A with an 8-person crew, 10 h plus 2 h overtime" → generates daily_report.xlsx
  2. Append delay entries such as "rain stoppage 14:00–16:00" and "material delivery 2 h late" to build a claim record
  3. Aggregate a week of reports' man-hours to compare actual productivity against plan
