This course gives you a hands-on look at how site logistics shape the success of a construction project, and the thinking behind how field teams keep jobsites safe, organized, and productive. Across six lessons, you'll work through the full logistics process, starting with how to read a site and identify its constraints, then moving into building a logistics plan, managing the flow of workers, materials, and equipment, and finally coordinating everything on a daily basis once the work is underway. You'll also see how logistics ties directly into safety, productivity, and your ability to adjust as site conditions shift.

Each lesson pairs core concepts with practical exercises drawn from the kinds of challenges field teams face every day, and the course wraps up with a final project where you'll build a complete logistics strategy for a sample jobsite. You'll practice thinking through access, staging, deliveries, equipment coordination, and temporary facilities while keeping safety and efficiency front and center. By the end, you'll walk away with the practical skills and field instincts to plan and run logistics on a real construction site.
