In Claude: Customize → Connectors → + Add → Add custom connector. In ChatGPT: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode → Create app, with OAuth. In Codex: `codex mcp add stacksync --url https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp` then `codex mcp login stacksync`. Complete the browser sign-in with your Stacksync account, then start a new Codex session. In Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport http stacksync https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp`. Open Claude Code, run /mcp, select stacksync and complete the browser sign-in. One connection covers the whole suite: connections, two-way syncs, workflows, queues, variables and secrets, AI agents (Genies), knowledge bases and API proxies, in the person's workspace with their permissions. Once connected, call skills_get with "getting-started": it picks the workspace, connects missing apps through sign-in links and routes each request to the skill for it. Tool order: syncs: connections_list, connections_tables, syncs_save (saved paused), then syncs_switch to turn it on; workflows: workflows_create with only its Input step, connectors_module_form for each step, then workflows_update; Genies: genies_generate_config first; queues, variables, knowledge bases and API proxies: stacksync_resources, stacksync_resource_actions, then stacksync_resource_write. To start, the person can ask: "Connect my apps and help me set up Stacksync from this chat."

Author Ignacio Malpartida · GTM Engineer Published September 18, 2026 Read time 5 min read APP TIPS ## The operating decision An installation-readiness workflow should compare the approved work package with material allocation, site-access evidence and crew-release decisions. Each dependency needs its own owner and current status. An installation date in the CRM does not prove parts are available or a site is accessible. Use the workflow to collect evidence, identify blockers and route decisions. Purchasing, site coordination and dispatch retain authority over inventory commitments, access confirmation and actual crew assignment.

One has equipment in stock but reserved for another customer. Another has all materials allocated but no confirmed loading-dock window. The third has a crew tentatively assigned while a required subcontractor remains unavailable. A single green scheduled field hides three different risks. A useful readiness view shows which condition is missing and what decision would make the job releasable. ## Records, ownership, and update rules | Record | Owner | Operating rule | | --- | --- | --- | | Approved work package | Project management | Identify the equipment and tasks for the current approved scope revision. | | Material allocation | Inventory or procurement | Distinguish available quantity, project reservation and inbound expectation. | | Site-access confirmation | Site coordinator | Record authorized access window, restrictions and confirmation reference. | | Crew release | Dispatch | Retain the assignment decision and prerequisite checks in the dispatch process. | ![Record ownership diagram: Approved work package, Material allocation, Site-access confirmation](https://www.stacksync.com/images/blog-diagrams/icp-construction-installation-readiness-coordinate-parts-site-access-and-crew-release.webp) *Define the record owner and the rule before enabling updates.* ## Work through the process 1. 01 Start from the released scope Take the equipment and labor requirements from the approved work package, not an old estimate. Record the revision and planned installation window. If the scope changes, invalidate the affected readiness checks so the team does not reuse a material approval for equipment that is no longer required. 2. 02 Inspect allocation rather than gross stock Compare required items and quantities with the quantities reserved for the job. Separate on-hand inventory from purchase orders and supplier promises. A synchronized inventory balance supports visibility, but reserving material or moving it between jobs is a separate action that the inventory owner must control. 3. 03 Make access a specific record Capture who confirmed site access, when the confirmation applies, and any loading, security or occupancy restrictions. A generic customer note saying access arranged is insufficient when the crew needs a particular dock or shutdown window. Route missing or expired confirmation to the site coordinator. 4. 04 Combine dependencies without hiding them Show a job-level readiness result alongside the individual checks. One unresolved condition should keep the job in a review state, while the other evidence remains visible. Avoid replacing detailed reasons with a red icon that forces the coordinator to repeat the same investigation. 5. 05 Release through the owning team When prerequisites are met, route a release recommendation to dispatch or the project manager. Record the actual decision and the evidence version used. Recheck material and access changes before departure. The workflow should not make an external promise merely because all last-known fields appeared green. 6. 06 Show the operational consequence of a blocker Add the planned release window and the latest decision time to each dependency. A part arriving after the crew's departure may be physically available later that day but still block the planned job. The coordinator needs that consequence beside the source fact. Keep the schedule decision with dispatch, and use the readiness view to make the timing conflict explicit before the customer receives a confirmed commitment. ![6-step operating sequence: Construction installation readiness for parts, site and crew](https://www.stacksync.com/images/blog-diagrams-mermaid/icp-construction-installation-readiness-coordinate-parts-site-access-and-crew-release.webp) *Follow the operating sequence; unresolved exceptions return to a responsible reviewer.* ## Handle the exceptions explicitly ### Inbound shipment has an uncertain arrival Keep the job conditionally ready and assign procurement to confirm the delivery evidence. ### Site moves the access window Invalidate the previous access check and send the changed window to dispatch. ### Equipment is reassigned to another job Reopen readiness for the original job and preserve the reason for the allocation change. ## What to verify before expanding - Gross stock cannot substitute for a job allocation. - The readiness record identifies the current work-package revision. - Every blocker has an owner and a next decision. - A changed access window withdraws the earlier release recommendation. ## Connect this process to the rest of your operation [Explore Stacksync workflows](https://www.stacksync.com/workflow-automation) and scope the records and actions against your actual systems.

Only through a separately verified scheduling action and the dispatch rules you approve. This design first establishes reliable readiness evidence and an owned release decision. How often should readiness be checked? Choose the interval around your operating decisions: planning, supplier updates and predeparture checks. Measure whether source updates are fresh enough for those moments rather than promising a universal interval. What does the COO gain from this workflow? A view of jobs that are blocked for specific reasons and the team responsible for clearing each blocker. That is more actionable than a schedule that assumes every dependency will resolve itself.
