Nine modules. One programme model.

Build, update and present CPM programmes.

A full critical-path scheduling workspace. Create activities and WBS structure, link logic, apply calendars and constraints, run forward and backward passes, then progress the schedule update by update. The same data drives presentation-grade Gantt boards for executive reporting, so you never rebuild the programme in PowerPoint.

• ■Activity, WBS and milestone editing with inline grid and Gantt
• ■FS/SS/FF/SF relationships with lag, chain-link and unchain tools
• ■Forward/backward pass, total and free float, critical path highlighting
• ■Calendars, constraints, data date and progress updates (% and actual dates)

Earned value, progress and performance analytics.

Turns the programme into performance numbers. Metrics computes earned value (PV, EV, AC, SV, CV, SPI, CPI), progress S-curves, planned vs actual burn, and productivity trends across updates, so you can tell an owner not just where the job is, but where it is heading.

• ■Earned value: PV, EV, AC, SV, CV, SPI, CPI, TCPI
• ■Forecasting: EAC, ETC and forecast completion from current performance
• ■Planned vs actual vs earned S-curves by project, WBS or contractor
• ■Period and cumulative progress with physical % complete roll-ups

Score the schedule against industry standards.

A schedule health assessment engine. Quality runs DCMA 14-point checks and wider good-practice tests — open ends, dangling logic, negative lag, hard constraints, long durations, high float, out-of-sequence progress, missed activities — and returns a scored, evidence-backed report you can hand to a client or use to reject a contractor submission.

• ■DCMA 14-point assessment with pass/fail thresholds and counts
• ■Logic integrity: open ends, dangling starts/finishes, redundant links
• ■Constraint and lag audit, including negative lag and hard date constraints
• ■Float profile, high-float and negative-float exposure

Structure and design the programme before you build it.

The planning layer that sits ahead of the schedule. Design is where you set the WBS and coding structure, activity templates, calendars, phase and area breakdowns, and the layout standards that the whole project inherits — so every update, every report and every export looks and behaves the same way.

• ■WBS, phase and area breakdown design with reusable templates
• ■Activity coding, colour rules and bar styling standards
• ■Calendar library — working weeks, shifts, holidays and shutdowns
• ■Layout and column presets shared across the project

Forensic delay analysis that stands up under scrutiny.

The forensic core. Delay runs the recognised SCL Protocol methods — windows / time impact analysis, as-planned vs as-built, impacted as-planned and collapsed as-built (but-for) — with a delay and EOT register that ties each event to cause, effect, responsibility and entitlement.

• ■Windows analysis / time impact analysis, period by period
• ■As-planned vs as-built comparison with critical-path movement
• ■Impacted as-planned and collapsed as-built (but-for) modelling
• ■Delay and EOT register with cause, effect, culpability and concurrency

Run Monte Carlo schedule and cost risk before the risk becomes a claim.

Quantitative risk analysis over the live programme. Risk models both schedule and cost uncertainty at the same time: three-point distributions on activity durations and costs, correlated activities, discrete risk events with probability and impact, and full Monte Carlo simulation over the CPM network. The result is a joined-up view of P-value completion dates, cost exposure, contingency needs and a ranked tornado of the drivers that actually move the tail.

• ■Schedule risk: three-point duration distributions (triangular, PERT, uniform, beta) on every activity
• ■Cost risk: three-point cost estimates and uncertainty mapped directly to activities and WBS
• ■Discrete risk events with probability of occurrence, schedule impact and cost impact ranges
• ■Activity correlation so related risks move together, not in isolation

Turn project records into a dated chronology.

The evidence engine. Extractor reads project documents — PDF schedules, progress reports, RFIs, site instructions, minutes and correspondence — and pulls out dated, structured events you can link straight to activities and delay events, replacing weeks of manual reading and re-typing.

• ■PDF schedule parsing into activities, dates and logic
• ■AI-assisted extraction of dated events from correspondence and reports
• ■Chronology builder with source document and page reference on every entry
• ■Keyword, party and date-range filtering across the whole record set

Claim-ready narratives, exhibits and evidence packs.

Where the work becomes a deliverable. Reports assembles narrative sections, figures, tables and exhibits from the live analysis into a consistent document set — monthly reports, submission reviews or full expert reports — and exports to PPTX, PDF and DOCX with numbering and formatting already correct.

• ■Narrative builder that pulls live figures from Schedule, Delay, Metrics and Risk
• ■Exhibit numbering, figure and table references maintained automatically
• ■Executive, programme board and compact layouts for board-level decks
• ■Editable PowerPoint shapes — not flattened screenshots

An AI planning analyst sitting inside your programme.

The AI Advisor reads the schedule you have open — activities, logic, float, progress and baseline — and turns it into the writing work that normally eats a planner's week. Ask it questions in plain English, generate executive or forensic reports, compare two updates and get ranked observations, or draft a whole CPM schedule from a short brief and load it straight into the workspace.

• ■Ask anything about the open programme and get answers citing real activities, dates and float
• ■Executive summary, schedule health, forensic delay narrative and monthly progress reports
• ■Compare two schedule versions — completion movement, critical path shifts, logic and duration changes
• ■Draft a full CPM schedule with WBS, durations and finish-to-start logic from a written brief
