About the Daily Report template
A Daily Report is a short, structured log that captures what happened on a project each working day—work completed, labor and equipment on site, delays, and issues needing attention. It creates a continuous record that supports progress tracking, accountability, and dispute resolution, particularly on construction and field-based projects where conditions change hourly.
It's part of My QMS, MyPMP's Quality Management System: fill it in online, personalize it with your name and logo, then export a clean, branded PDF. Your work auto-saves in your browser.
When to use a Daily Report
- ▸Documenting daily site activity, crew counts, and equipment use on construction or infrastructure projects

- ✓Work completed and planned for the next day
- ✓Labor on site by trade, hours worked, and equipment used

Tips & common mistakes
- 💡Complete it the same day while details are fresh—reconstructed reports lose accuracy and evidentiary value.
- 💡Quantify work and delays (linear meters, hours lost, crew size) rather than writing vague summaries.
- 💡Attach photos and note the time they were taken; they strengthen claims and progress verification.

- 2. Brand it — add your organization name and logo with the Branding button.

FAQ
Who is responsible for filling out a daily report?+
Usually the site supervisor, foreman, or project engineer completes it, since they directly observe crews, deliveries, and conditions throughout the day.
How is a daily report different from a progress report?+
A daily report captures a single day's activity, labor, and events in detail, while a progress report aggregates that data over a week or month to show performance against the schedule.
Why do daily reports matter for construction claims?+
They provide contemporaneous, dated evidence of delays, weather, and site conditions, which is often decisive when substantiating time-extension or disruption claims.
