For fast-moving site conditions
Construction and shutdown teams can need a clear way to make the roster relevant to current site work available to workers and supervisors.
Construction and Shutdowns
Roster publishing for construction and shutdown crews
RosterField helps teams publish the roster they have planned in Excel for workers and supervisors to access.

An illustrative shutdown roster scenario
A shutdown workbook may be organised around mobilisation, work packages, day and night coverage, and the changing requirements of a short delivery window.
- Mobilisation
- Inductions, access preparation, and early site-support coverage.
- Work packages
- Trade, supervision, and contractor crews assigned to planned work areas.
- Shift handover
- Incoming and outgoing coverage shown against the current shutdown period.
Before issuing the roster, the project team can review the prepared version and publish a defined workforce reference.
Keep the planning process familiar
Continue planning in Excel. RosterField focuses on turning the roster your team has prepared into a controlled published view.
Move beyond file-based distribution alone
Shared files can leave people uncertain about the roster they should be using. Publication provides a defined workflow for making a roster view available.
Prepare the roster for publication
Upload, template selection or mapping, validation, review, and publication connect the distribution process to the Excel roster planning workflow.
Support supervisors and workers
Workers and supervisors can use the project link or QR code to find the published roster rather than depend solely on distributed files. The link is shareable; it is not an individual login.
Retain clear boundaries
Limited corrections can occur as part of review. RosterField is not intended to replace comprehensive spreadsheet editing.

A demo can help assess the current roster format and the publishing process needed for a construction or shutdown operation.
Useful answers
Construction and Shutdowns questions, answered
Can we publish a revised shutdown roster?
Yes. Review and publish a corrected project version when the plan changes. The earlier publication remains in administrator history; tell crews to check the current link.
Does it schedule contractors or allocate equipment?
No. The project team owns the plan and any contractor or plant allocation. RosterField reviews and publishes the supplied spreadsheet roster.
What if a contractor appears twice in the workbook?
If the same employment number repeats, the import review asks an administrator to choose the record to include; it will not silently merge the entries.
