Opening a second shop across town
A second location has to be built, licensed and staffed while the first one stays open. Here the new shop is one project: the build-out on a board, photos of the room and of tryout haircuts, lists for permits, the build, hiring and opening, and the calendar.
Pettus Barbers posts the plan and each week's news from the new shop on the and moves every job of the build-out from a quote to done on Boards. Photos of the room being fitted out and of the haircuts from tryout shifts sit in two Docs & Files grids, permits, the build, hiring and opening are four lists in To-dos, and the Calendar holds the chair delivery, the state inspection and opening day.

Business expansion
Taking on more space means building work, new equipment and an opening date, all while the business stays open. Here the expansion is one project: the building work, the new rooms and the lease, deliveries and inspections, and photos of the new space.

Office move
An office move happens over one weekend, and every desk, computer and box must be packed before it and working after it. Here the move is one project: lists for move weekend, the build-out and IT, photos of the new building, and the books on a board.

Warehouse software rollout
A warehouse has to keep shipping while each shift learns new handhelds, labels and screens, one area at a time. Here the rollout is one project: the cutover checklists, each area's progress on a board, the vendor's mail, floor photos and the supervisors' end-of-shift answers.
