An apprentice electrician is assigned a task he hasn't done solo before, causing delays and straining inter-trade relationships, while lack of proper scheduling and coordination between trades leads to cascading project delays.

No centralized coordination tool for scheduling trade handoffs; communication is ad hoc, leading to idle time and tension between trades.
