v1.0.0-rc1 · Shippable · Snowy 2.0 pilot · Q2 2026

The operating system for Lean construction on major tunnelling projects.

TunnelIQ replaces the whiteboards, Excel trackers and Teams channels tier-one projects use to run the Last Planner System. One coherent platform for constraint management, weekly planning, pull planning, TBM ops, near-miss and a claims-grade audit trail — built by people who ran the jobs.

§ The problem
Tier-one tunnelling projects already use Last Planner, A3, Takt, NOA and daily huddles. The methodology is world-class. The tooling is a whiteboard photographed at 6pm and a planner manually merging Excel files at 11 the next morning.
§ 01 — Capability surface

Every Lean tool your project already runs — with its own data layer, not another spreadsheet.

134 API endpoints, 33 data models, 5 publication-quality PDF reports, a PPTX deck generator, an A3 PDF exporter, and a full audit trail. Built for real tunnelling work, not retrofitted from generic construction software.

Last Planner System

Constraint Board with age-weighted escalation and recurrence detection.

Aging thresholds, cluster detection across 30-day windows, cascade impact, crew-days at risk, critical-path tagging. When the same category appears three times in a zone, the board suggests an A3.

PPC · CQI · reliability Claims-grade audit Rule engine
Weekly planning · meeting mode

Six-step facilitated flow with WebSocket live sync.

Everyone in the room contributes from their own screen. Commitment validity scored in real time. Minutes PDF generates on close-out — no one writes them up after the fact.

Pull planning Make-ready board Daily huddle
TBM operations

TBM Ops Hub.

Per-machine dashboard. NOA criteria verified before mode change. Cutterhead interventions with wear measurements. Advance-rate alerts. Shift report ingestion — CSV, Excel, and scanned PDF via Claude extraction.

NOA blocking Shift handover
Continuous improvement

A3 problem solving.

Seven-section structured template auto-populated from cluster data. Optional Claude-drafted root-cause and countermeasures — explicit drafts, edited by the actual problem-solver. A3 PDF exports in landscape.

TIMWOODS waste Kaizen pipeline
HSE · Safety

Near-miss register with severity SLAs.

Five severities, thirteen categories, auto-assigned close-out targets — critical in 3 days, near-miss in 30. Investigator workflow. Lessons library for cross-project publication.

Field observations Lessons library
Takt production

Takt and cycle-time boards.

Define takt per repetitive activity — ring build, pour, blast. Log each cycle. Rolling variance. Miss-reason taxonomy. Sigma statistics. The kind of detail that makes commercial reviews tractable.

Cycle analytics Miss-reason breakdown
Measurement

Flow Score · composite.

Work continuity, start/finish reliability, constraint burden, rework and flow efficiency — combined into one 0-100 score that trends weekly. Computed from TIMWOODS waste entries, not stubbed.

Crew PPC trending Flow efficiency
Mobile · Flutter

Offline-first field app. Glove mode. Underground mode.

Daily Readiness before pre-start. Daily Huddle contribution. Quick-capture observations with photo and voice. Shift Handover for TBM supervisors. Forty-eight-dp minimum tap targets, +30% type, warm amber palette for night shift. Works offline, syncs when the radio comes back.

Hive offline queue Voice capture + transcription Haptic feedback Background sync worker
Executive

Room Mode · 7-panel rotating display.

Full-screen dashboard for the site meeting room projector — Health, Constraints, Lookahead, TBM, HSE, Recognition, Observations on a 25-second cycle. Shared situational awareness replaces the status meeting before it.

Activity feed bell Command palette
Coaching · Lean integrity

Eight coaching triggers. Maturity-aware language.

Recurring cluster, PPC decline, near-term blockers, failure concentration, flow improvement, near-miss overdue, takt drift, kaizen stuck. At maturity L0–1, plain English prompts. At L2+, the Lean vocabulary the team already speaks. The layer offers — it never blocks.

Celebrate, don't rank Coach, don't command
Programme · commercial

Milestones with backward pull and blocking-constraint surfacing.

Define a milestone, TunnelIQ walks the predecessor graph backward, flags gaps in days, surfaces which constraints are blocking which activity. When dates slip, you pull back from the milestone — not forward from today. Subcontractor PPC digest per organisation.

Predecessor graph Subcontractor digest
§ 02 — The weekly cadence

Master schedule → weekly plan → daily huddle → close-out. One data layer across all of it.

01

Lookahead

6-week planner view. Activities from programme, sequenced on the predecessor graph. Make-ready blockers surfaced per activity.

02

Pull plan

Crew × week grid. Draft commitments scored for validity (owner named, prerequisites clear). Promoted to confirmed for the week.

03

Weekly plan

Meeting Mode on the projector. Live sync across all attendees' screens. Minutes PDF generated on close-out.

04

Daily huddle

10-minute work-package huddle. Yesterday / today / blocker. Blocked commitments auto-create observations on the constraint board.

05

Close out

Committed vs delivered. PPC + CQI computed. Coaching triggers fire. Weekly Performance PDF regenerated from live data.

§ 03 — Who runs it

Every role has a primary screen. Nobody is asked to use a tool they don't need.

Project DirectorExec Overview

HSE leadNear-miss · lessons

SubcontractorCoaching, not blame
Logs own commitments. Sees own PPC trend. The data is for improvement, not for ranking at the next meeting.
§ 04 — Claims-grade audit trail

Every state change, with actor and timestamp. Claims-ready by default.

When a commitment moves, a near-miss escalates, a NOA criterion flips amber, or a rule fires — it's captured in the audit log with actor, before, after, and cryptographically chained to the previous entry.

On day 720 of a megaproject, when the EOT submission is being built or the variation is being defended, the audit log is the evidence. Not reconstructed after the fact. Generated as you work.

§ 05 — How a pilot works

Four weeks. One heading. Prove it before procurement gets involved.

The site-pilot mode runs free off a 64 MB portable bundle. One Windows laptop, phones on the same Wi-Fi, real data, claims-grade audit trail from day one. If it doesn't earn its keep by week four, you walk away owing nothing.

Site-pilot mode — free on USB.

A superintendent can prove value at site level before anyone talks to procurement. Zero onboarding fee, zero software licence, no cloud access required. TunnelIQ runs from a USB stick on a Windows laptop, phones connect over the site Wi-Fi. Commercial conversation comes after the pilot, not before it.

Arrange pilot
§ 06 — Start the conversation

Fifteen minutes with the superintendent. That's how a pilot begins.

Not a product pitch. A conversation about where the whiteboard is failing, where the Excel collation is eating the planner's week, and which heading would trial cleanest. We take it from there.
