Abstract
In this study, we propose an integrated model for collaborative Construction Supply Chain (CSC) planning that deals with the joint project scheduling and material ordering decisions. The main objective is to achieve more coordination and, therefore, to reduce the total CSC cost. More specifically, we consider a two-echelon Supply Chain (SC) composed of a manufacturer, a warehouse, and multiple construction sites where multiple independent construction projects are planned. The projects require different materials that are provided by the same manufacturer with a limited production capacity. The starting time of each activity is subject to materials availability in construction sites. A mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model is developed to reduce the total costs while collaboration between contractors is possible. The model is implemented using the IBM ILOG® CPLEX® Optimization Studio and used to analyze the collaboration process through a numerical study to demonstrate the benefits of collaborative planning in construction project management. The decision model help also in finding practical construction projects’ sequences as well as suitable materials ordering, manufacturing, and inventories plans for SC participants.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
