Track Construction Site Delay Reasons With Excel History Export
Site Audit Pro gives you a list of snags. ProPlot gives you a forensic history of why the plot slipped — Weather, Trade no-show, Material delay — in professional Excel exports your build director can use to defend programme claims.
From Delay to Defence in Three Steps
1. Record the Delay
Select the reason — Weather, Trade no-show, Material delay, or a custom reason — and the number of days. The Slip tool instantly recalculates all affected plot dates.
2. Build the History
Every slip event is timestamped and logged with the reason, days slipped, contractor name, and affected plots. This builds a forensic audit trail over the life of your project.
3. Export for Directors
Generate professional Excel workbooks with Status History and Slip Log worksheets. Frozen headers, autofilters, and site-branded formatting ready for boardroom presentations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does ProPlot cross-reference delays with status changes?
The export system cross-references status transitions with slip logs using plot ID and a 10-minute timestamp window. This creates a correlated timeline showing exactly how each delay event impacted the programme.
Can I track multiple delay reasons for one plot?
Yes. Each slip event is recorded independently with its own reason, date, and contractor reference. Over the course of a project, you build a complete history of every delay that affected each plot.
What format are the exports?
Professional .xlsx (Excel) files with site-branded headers, frozen rows for navigation, autofilters for sorting, and separate worksheets for status summary and detailed slip logs.
