As 2025 comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to look back on what we’ve accomplished together this year. Across the organization, teams leaned in to improve processes, test new tools, and strengthen collaboration. Our department’s role has been to support that work and help connect efforts across departments.

The following features and workflows came directly from the creativity and problem-solving of project teams across Skyline. These tools save time, increase clarity, or make day-to-day work easier and they’re all available for teams to use right now. 

Contingency Markup Hack 

David Kluj created a clean, easy-to-use approach to applying contingency markup consistently across projects. This saves you time by eliminating the need to calculate the markups manually!

 Bulk Upload Change Events

To save time from manually adding line items to a change event, Luke Bobeda recently used the bulk upload method for Change Events. This allows you to  download a CSV file from your project, add your line items to that file, and then import it into Procore.

Bulk Submittal Upload Method 

Jose Silva used the bulk upload method for submittals on the PwC San Jose job. This fast technique for organizing and uploading all your draft submittals at once can help cut down on data entry throughout the lifecycle of the project!

Looking for ways to save time and simplify your workflow? Check out these practical tools and features that teams are already using to make daily tasks easier:

Project Status Snapshots (Mondays) 

Project Status Snapshots are a quick, high-value practice. This is a snapshot of your Procore Budget at the start of the week or at least after your monthly budget update and after any major change (buyout, scope of work change order, reforecast exercise). 

Why it matters: Supports more proactive planning, clearer communication, and fewer surprises and allows intel with the use of Procore’s new Variance feature. 

Procore for Outlook 

You can now connect Procore directly to Outlook, making it easier to create Change Events and draft RFIs without leaving your inbox!

Why it matters: Reduces clicks! Create that draft RFI or Change Event direct from email! Architect send you a bulletin set?  Create the Change Event direct from the email and send your RFQs!  The drawings will automatically come through to the RFQs for reference. 

Procore Locations & QR Codes

Locations in Procore let you link items (RFIs, Submittals, etc.) to specific job site areas, making it easy to pinpoint where defects, installations, or change orders occur.

You can generate a QR Code for any location. Scanning it with the Procore Mobile App allows field users to:

Teams at Skyline have started using this process and report significant value in improving accuracy and efficiency on site.

Using your Budget’s “Monitored Resources” in Forecasting 

Teams are now more widely incorporating monitored resources to complete their forecast-to-complete calculations. 

Why it matters: Helps create a more accurate and consistent forecast giving you REAL TIME cost feedback.
