Milestone-Based Expediting
Tracking expediting milestones
Expediters can enter dates and other related data for the completion of expediting milestone events as they’re completed. 4castplus will auto-fill certain fields such as the arrival-at-site date when there is a logical connection to project events.
Logging vendor communications
4castplus expediting software provides a built-in tool to capture emails, phone calls and other correspondence with all your vendors. This is key for documenting a historical record for transparency during the expediting process.

Expediting Reports
4castplus includes standard expediting reports out-of-the-box that summarize all expediting details for all selected purchase orders and related items. There are also user-customizable reports, ad-hoc reports, and an interactive critical-path timeline module to monitor upcoming events to watch for.
Standard and user-customizable reports
4castplus provides a wealth of options for built-in reporting, ad-hoc reporting and for users to design their own library of expediting & receiving reports.
Timeline reports
The 4castplus expediting “Timeline” module is a key planning tool for expeditors to monitor the critical-path targets. It answers the questions: “What’s coming up in the next few days, weeks and months?”
Expediting matters because timing is everything
In procurement management, the expeditor is the person who ensures suppliers deliver critical materials or equipment to the jobsite on time and in good order. They keep close tabs on the statuses of every key event leading up to the successful delivery of long-lead items. He or she spends hours communicating with vendors, and they feed delivery forecast details to the project manager and schedulers to ensure accurate timing of crews and installers. To accomplish all this, they need an expediting software solution that makes it easy and organized so that they can help avoid delays and other issues like, quality, damages, overages, etc.
